yup that's it!

so i guess i'm conflating two different things here..

but isn't it kinda still in HK interests not to get trialed in China? and should they not have a say in the matter? If they are fiercely resisting the extradition bill, then they're clearly not happy and coerced against their will

It’s the same thing as the states government vs federal government

lemme guess the answer to that

Inb4 unironic "we were spreading democracy" posts

NIMBY but geopolitically

idk man, it was an endearing and sad sight to see the inventive ways in which a group of students managed to resist an armed batallion of police/military forces

I’m sorry but when you post and call a Coach Redpill (who is a misogynistic superstar in the loser community) video interesting just because he mentioned something anti-Ukraine, you lose credibility.

Another popular video of his is “Why to never date a sexual assault victim”

who did what???

i don't remember ever watching a coach redpill video

literally never heard of the guy or him being Coach Redpill

i do see how he started off the sentence with "dominance hierarchy" though

i see now

slava ukraini and also slava the russian boys being sent off ill equipped with empty promises into a land that hates them and wants them dead

Americans and Western Europeans living in eastern europe and making online content is a huge red flag

War 101

oh lol

dam the losers really found their safe haven huh?

lmfao

i wouldnt touch this man with a f***ing barge pole

is he actually ukrainian? if yes then it's quiet but if not then i instantly assume s***tourist

or anywhere in asia or westoids making content in general

Alt right pretty much

Then they make videos about how it’s morally wrong to leave your country if it’s at war

These mfs left their countries cause a center left government got in power for a few years

same wavelength

RW twitter has it all figured out!

im not necessarily getting that impression anymore
at first i did
but now i think the issue that those ppl r trying to bring up is that there's a lot of coverage going on currently about s*** that Russia is doing that is being deemed as crazy wrong and inhumane

meanwhile that same coverage and sentiment was not really present during all the times the west has done crazy wrong n inhumane s*** (part of the rzn the sentiment wasn't similar, imo, is due to the lack [probably intentional lack] of coverage)

and i do understand that idea. and i get the point behind it too n it's something i've put blinders over my eyes for b4

the only confusing part about it to me is that a lot of this sentiment comes off as "why should we care about this Now when the US has done it __ and __ and __ and __ times Before?"

pointing out the bias is a good thing. trying to imitate the mentality of those who made excuses for/ignored the US/wests' doings, maybe to further prove the point, or maybe out of spite, is not a good thing

it's like that article says, fascism has gone international now
