      “verifiable historical facts don’t matter because I have imagined that the person telling them to me is Russian and therefore wrong, lying or otherwise somehow ontologically duplicitous”

      A smug retreat from reality

        I had to remove about 5 comments above that were like “ok that’s a verified historical fact but that’s .ml for ya”.

        When liberals run out of arguments, they attack your identity, especially if its perceived as being anti-western-supremacist.

          Yes. That is what people were saying. Not “Yeah, the US fucking sucks but some of those feel like a stretch”

          Unrelated: How does it feel to know you put all this work into a mostly useable social media system and… the vast majority of the users of that cringe at the mere thought of you. Like… did you actually think this would make you any friends? Or is that why you go hardcore tankie at any given opportunity?

          … Holy fuck. You’re the elon musk of the fediverse… Oh god… Now I REALLY feel bad for you. Like… holy shit
