    Communists defending Russia is one of the strangest things Tankies do. Why defend Russia of all countries?

      Other than the possibility they’re shills, it seems to be “we oppose the EU, NATO and the US, therefore China and Russia are fantastic”. Which makes no sense, obviously, because making sense would be to oppose China and Russia for the same reasons they don’t like the US and the EU.

      Because they are campists. I’m still convinced it’s like 75% edgy teenagers, 10% state sponsored information warfare, and 15% right wingers trying to see how stupid they can make “leftists” look before getting called out.

    So they’ll take the word of Russia, a country who’s Government lies so much I’m surprised they haven’t been caught lying over the colour of their skies, over Ukraine who Russia invaded and stole land from underhandedly?

    Sounds about right for Tankies…

    Also, are they seriously suggesting Ukraine is the one using human wave tactics? Russia has thrown so many bodies at Ukraine that they’re struggling to find more bodies to throw into the grinder.
