    I haven't seen anything about them that suggests right wing aside from the pro-Russian bent itself, which if that's enough on its own we'd have to call r/GenZedong right wing (ASBMilitary is less overtly pro-Russian than them, actually).

    They're also relatively clear on what is or is not corroborated, or at least they claim when they consider something to be or not. Whether they are actually correct is the same thing as we have to apply to any media criticism: take it with a grain of salt and review their track record, and the toughest part of all: what do they consistently avoid or leave our?

      Speaking for myself, I would consider a "pro-Russian" position to be right wing, if I felt like my position could be described that way (which I have had comrades suggest to me while I've been discussing the situation) I would consider it imperative to self-crit. GenZedong is full of memesters and is not a place I generally take seriously, I have no opinion on them.

      Whether they are actually correct is the same thing as we have to apply to any media criticism: take it with a grain of salt and review their track record, and the toughest part of all: what do they consistently avoid or leave our?

      Wholly agree comrade. To be frank, I don't think this entire situation has been approached with an adequate amount of criticism (self directed, and externally directed) by a significant portion of this site. Almost off topic from @ASBMilitary in particular, but I was hoping to see more question marks the last couple weeks than I've observed, especially since a majority of the site took a big L on the chances of an invasion happening in the first place.

        Fair enough! I don't have much of responses because I think you make great points and I don't have much to add.

          Sounds good comrade, happy we have a place to have this sort of discussion without it getting weird
