Leftist Infighting: A community dedicated to allowing leftists to vent their frustrations
1283 readers

The purpose of this community is sort of a "work out your frustrations by letting it all out" where different leftist tendencies can vent their frustrations with one another and more assertively and directly challenge one another. Hostility is allowed, but any racist, fascist, or reactionary crap wont be tolerated, nor will explicit threats.

Fed behavior is reinforcing the western imperialist narrative on the Russia-NATO conflict under the guise of ostensibly leftist language or treating it as some kind of "both sides bad" situation.
That doesn't make it incorrect.
(I'm also not aware the fed interpretation of the conflict is "both sides bad" so... that's a curious thought)
Feds know they can't convince socialists that NATO is good but it is enough for them if they convince you that both Russia and NATO are bad and that neither deserves your support.
@cfgaussian So in this logic, one is convinced that Nato is bad, but Nato still somehow wins. It wins, you see, by losing.
Man, I don't miss arguing with fundies.
@cfgaussian You know, I just realized this is the exact same argument used against "both parties are equally bad"
That is a false analogy.
