So how does this work? Do we hate Russian people forever? Until the war ends? A few months? Couple years? How do I proceed?

im not big on medusa (, goddamn libs!,) but yall better read this

Some pick up artist "redpill" manosphere youtuber joined a foreign legion for Russia then got captured by Ukranian forces apparently what in the f***

Been happening on a near daily basis to idiots going to fight for Ukraine

i just think the absurdity of this specifically is out of this world

in order of events (long term):
1) right wing redpill PUA guy makes videos on youtube
2) leaves the US for being an "emasculated dying nation", goes to live in ukraine
3) continues making 'redpill' videos aimed at manosphere/adjacent loser types
4) ukraine war starts
5) defects to russia immediatedly
6) gets caught by ukranian military immediatedly (supposedly azov but unconfirmed)

Azov got Gonzalo?

Guy goes to fight for russia gets captured by ukraine

'Yeah but Ukrainian foreign legion men have been captured too'

It's s*** like this that makes everyone think youre pro russia

So literally just stating a fact makes me pro Putin? Got it lol

U just blatantly lied about an independent journalist being backed by Russia ur opinion on who is or isn't pro Russia is worthless

Disappointing

What's your line of thinking with this post? What is the end goal here

they're current state-sanctioned ethnic group it's okay to hate just like muslims used to be until like the late 10s

Really the dumbest s*** ever

Muslims still the most hated imo, just wait for taliban or isis to do something then all of em get grouped up again as demons

You’re not wrong, but they’re in a place of semi-hiatus discourse wise. Muslim fearmongering on the right largely been replaced with liberal fearmongering on stuff like LGBT rhetoric and whatnot. I expect it to come back eventually as that prejudice is still there

Maybe in the US, but in Europe it's still muslims that get openly hated on mostly. In the USA it seems to be some culture war going on till deep into society, banning progressive school books and such

Yeah I just mean the US to be clear. I’m aware in the EU they’re still bloodthirsty toward Muslims.

Terrorist attacks are more recent too. So maybe that narrative shifts eventually in Europe too (weird as s*** btw). The way some talk bout Russians now is getting close tho

Once again I’ve called it

the same s*** all over again

I think that wasn't the point of discussion tho. I think the point was what the alternative is for Ukraine? There is no alternative. Troops will cause WWIII and doing nothing will mean Ukraine would've been absolutely wrecked by now
