@kravietz @kaede @drq@mastodon.ml #TVRain isn't putinst, but is imperialist and pro-russia. Most german catholics weren't hitler proponents but were nazis. Even the priest from Weiße Rose was an antisemitic ass.
As you said, intent matters, and the intent of @drq and other "anti war" russians who don't participate in the war on the side of Ukraine in one way (providinga platform to Ukrainians is one little way to do that)...
@kravietz @kaede @drq... is to keep living as if nothing is happening. Except it does.
Using soviet symbols is a way to express imperialism. Using russian symbols is a way to validate putin's regime.
I've shown the original thread to a few russians who fight on the side of West and Ukraine and Ukrainians who are under bombs and nobody whatsoever have said that rt bot or @drq are allies or good faith actors.
@kravietz @kaede or Russian, for that matter. "Ukr•py" is a word rushists to address all the Ukrainians, the other words he used are used to describe a subset of #russians.
The other points still stand. They are imperialist scum and their allies are shit heads (look at the type or replies I get from calling them out).
