Probably started out as satire/half satire but it is definitely a place filled with hate and should defederated imo.
Remember that the donald on reddit started as a satire subreddit. Q-anon theories were originally 4-chan trolls...

We don't claim that all Ukrainians are nazis. That's absurd. We say that it has a pretty bad nazi problem and the media are lying their asses off about pretty much everything in the war. Pointing out media contradictions about the war is fun. Here's some articles from just before the war. Nowadays these would be unprintable in the west.

Isn't it funny how enemies of the US eat babies, and allies are always saints? Everyone else just gets ignored. There's virtually no coverage of the Sudan or Yemen wars, although Sudan is in much worse shape than Ukraine. The media is too busy drumming up hate for Russia.
