edit: i should make explicit. this meme is prodding at liberals humanizing the soldier of the 14th Waffen SS (1st Galicia) recently honoured in the canadian house of commons. this meme is showing off a ww2 ukrainian nazi unit in a fashion similarly done with the "brave soldiers of afghanistan" who would later become the taliban.
the joke is, we would eventually glorify and humanize them as well with enough time
Comment on threads you agree with instead of disagree with and you won't feel frustrated enough to go ugh. I know its difficult. I have trouble with it sometimes too.
The main reason I like Lemmy is that not everything is a debate yet. It reminds me of the old forum I had for my private WoW server as a teenager.
Also, sometimes I ask myself if something really affects me, and if its worth stressing over. Some things are important, so rather than ask myself if it affects me, I ask if I can do anything about it. If its out of my control, then it may as well be sports.
You’re not wrong, but seeing people simp for Russia with all the information available is just triggering.
I could excuse nostalgic tankies because it’s normally people in their teens or twenties who have no idea what the ussr was about (we have nostalgic fascists too in Italy, what can you do) but actually simping for Russia in 2023 is unbelievable.
This shit appeared in my feed, as soon as I find a way to hide this tankie cesspool instance from it I’ll do it and move on
Just the block our communities???
