The Word Socialist website is supporting Chinese propaganda, including Beijing's aggression against Taiwan, and they support Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

[-] scholar@lemmy.world 20 points 2 days ago

Unfortunately their bias is being served by what appear to be very credible accusations of warcrimes by British special forces.

[-] Railcar8095@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago

Surely you mean "NATO–Ukraine war against Russia".

Their words, not mine.

[-] NimdaQA@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Yes, and I support Russia's Special Military Operation as I am not a big fan of Nazis.

WSWS has an okay MBFC Credibility Rating.

Will you tankies ever not prove yourselves insane?

Just once, I want to interact with a tankie who breaks the stereotypes and the mold. Just a bit.

[-] ManixT@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago

Seriously. I can kinda get along with the general concept of communism/socialism - wealth should belong to the people who do the actual work and no one should have to struggle.

But then these insane people support the worst dictators murdering innocent people and try to pretend it's justified. Absolute trash people.

To be fair some of them are bots and paid actors.

[-] MajorasTerribleFate@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

I would like to think it's most of them. After all, how awesome would it be to catch the people escaping the social media platforms that are drifting right by creating one or two new ones? No guarantees of success, but it's still something, and you'd quietly have control of it to slowly push them whatever direction might be handy.

Russian's military has just as many and likely significantly more Nazis than Ukraine's. So shouldn't you support neither side?

Or is it the Russian Nazis are okay right now because they are fighting against the Western Nazis?

[-] NimdaQA@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

There is a difference between institutionalized Nazis in Ukraine and extremist elements within Russia.

Ukraine's Azov Battalion was made an official part of Ukraine's Armed Forces and has become a premier unit in Ukraine's military. Stepan Bandera is treated as a national hero in Ukraine. Bandera's birthday is a national holiday.

To use someone else's analogy, this would be like if the KKK was promoted to a premier unit in the US military, and Nathan Bedford Forrest was treated as a national hero, with his birthday becoming a national holiday.

Yes, I support a country that has many problems in their fight against Nazi Ukraine, how is this contradictory?

[-] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

You support a fascist nazi government trying to anex a country that has some nazis

[-] NimdaQA@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Russia is not a fascist state.

[-] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Russia is a textbook fascist state. And they love their nazis

[-] NimdaQA@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

On the contrary, Nazis aren't treated well in Russia.

More people are arrested in Russia for inciting racial hatred than the rest of Europe, USA, and Canada combined.

[-] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Kgb propaganda

Not that MB/FC is credible. Previously. Previously.

[-] Jimjim@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Why would I suspect anything different?

I find it interesting that you talk about Alexey Milchakov's Rusich.

It came about when Alexey Milchakov would take a deal with the FSB instead of fleeing to Ukraine like his childhood friend and many other Nazis.

Because of the deal, Alexey Milchakov was forced to drop Nazi racial theory and instead embrace diversity.

And in his gatherings, you now see Antifa flags.

I despise Rusich but you just harmed your point.

So the UK is a misandrist shithole, murdering people for the "crime" of being male?

[-] scholar@lemmy.world 17 points 2 days ago

No, this was an illegal, unofficial policy enacted by the special forces themselves and covered up by their superiors. The reason that we're hearing about it now is because of a BBC investigative report which has led to an official inquiry.

[-] EndlessNightmare@reddthat.com 4 points 2 days ago

Well murder is, by definition, an unlawful killing. So yes.

Agents of the government were engaged in unlawful killing of people for the crime of being male (and non-white, as other commenter pointed out), involving a significant conspiracy.

We'll see what sort of punishment they receive for their crimes, if convicted.

[-] Wrufieotnak@feddit.org 17 points 2 days ago

Silly you, it's not a crime being male. It's a crime being non white (and male).

[-] BreadstickNinja@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

The article also cites a cover-up of an incident where they killed women and kids. They gave the murderer an award to make it look legitimate.

Non-white would seem to be the primary factor here, in that proud Anglo-American tradition.

[-] EndlessNightmare@reddthat.com 7 points 2 days ago

My bad, you are correct.
