      Just look up the modlog entries for 7DeadlyFetishes and you will know why this person sucks.

        Meh. I can see folks calling him a Lib. But those last posts seemed to simply boil down to arguments over the degree to which drafted civilians were responsible for the atrocities of the Vietnam war.

        Because its a guy with a chip on their shoulder, the comments came off hot and heavy. But the content was no more "reactionary" than any other struggle session I've read on this board a thousand times.

      Is that literally what he's trying to do? Pathetic aspiration tbh

      You can search their username in the modlog and pull up the argument that got them banned. Basically as the OP said they were defending the German Army in WW2, and conscripts who fight in unjust wars generally.

    People on Twitter keep unironically asking what parts of Ukraine Russia should get to keep and I don't engage but I really want to say "Maybe the 30% of the country where the majority of the population is ethnic Russians?

    What is it they want? West keeps supplying weapons, more people die, more infrastructure destroyed, war drags on for years (or becomes frozen which is unlikely as its legally Russian territory now).

      I think that they think Ukraine is actually totes winning, in a comment they say that NOT sending weapons would be prolonging the war lol

      Yeah these people are in for a rude awakening if Russia begins to treat this like an actual invasion/aggression against what is now essentially sovereign territory of the RF.

        legally Russian territory

        I strongly dislike the notion that "International Law" is a meaningful thing. It's always been might makes right and international law is a barely disguised cudgel for powerful nations to use against the less powerful. There's no such thing as "legal" or "illegal" territory. If you can defend it and collect taxes it's yours regardless of what anyone else says, and if they have a problem their only recourse is economic or military warfare to force you out of the territory.

      I still fondly remember all the times he royally pissed off the entire GTAO sub after becoming a mod on it, just managing to set off the absolute dumbest manchildren with the most innocuous shit possible. He was like Icarus, posting too close to a sun made entirely out of irony until all the corn in his cob got popped.

      Although in all seriousness he was often a bit sus, but him being a notable weird poster whose whole shtick was edgy irony bought him slack until he just had an absolute meltdown and started doing objectively ahistorical nazi apologia unprompted.

    SRA has pretty liberal politics, best to not talk politics with them and just use the opportunity to learn gun stuff from non-chuds.

          Yeah we do a reading group, doing the Jakarta Method now and did State and Rev before that and the people have pretty good takes all around, of course there’s always a couple libs joining but its overall pretty good politics. I assumed SRA was like that everywhere but I guess there’s probably a lot of variation depending on where you’re at.

      Not critiquing other leftists for having shit takes is liberalism

        Groups like this will just kick you out and then leftists that want to learn how to handle a gun will need to go to chuds

            Oh I don't mean online, crap on them on Reddit every day forever. I mean irl there are "anti-tankie" SRA chapters that will ban you for having good opinions and then you won't get to learn gun stuff. I assume 99% of hexbears don't know gun stuff so I'm giving advice so that they can learn gun stuff from non-chuds irl.

      But dead for a good cause, so long as the remainder keeps fighting. Don't ask their loved ones to bury them in the name of defeat when you can add 50,000 in the name of victory.

    The map doesn't even make sense. Why would they take the northeast parts of the country that aren't very Russian instead of the southwest parts of the country that are?
