"that guy called me a bitch after I shot him, now we're even"
post
Just like when your teacher or parent says it takes two to make a fight
I suppose Russia's invasion is definitely imperialism, but I don't see anyone saying both sides are at fault.
What’s hilarious to me is that OP has a deliberate “this is only about one situation” and then defends how the other obvious situation isn’t that.
From a .ml user.
Curious.
Now I’m no supporter of genocide by anyone, and definitely not a Zionist, but it’s strange how when talking about Israel (by this user) there is nothing else, in fact you’ll be argued down by them if you see this comic as talking about anything but what they think.
Anyways….
This comic is about the USA.
This comic is about Canada.
This comic is about Australia.
This comic is about basically every African nation, South Africa especially.
This comic is about Russia, this comic is about the Soviet Union.
This comic is about Israel.
This comic is about a number of current conflicts.
This comic is about a number of past conflicts.
This comic is about raw Kalkite being mined from Gorman.
What does Israel have to do with this? It's obviously a Ukraine/Russia meme. Stop trying to make everything about your pet issue.
My dude I think you’re misunderstanding me and this post, read the comments and then come back and see if you can take my meaning.
The OP is making a point of saying this isn’t about Russia/Ukraine in any way and how can we even be so dumb as to think that.



Your criticism ought to be aimed at OP, Israel IS their pet project
Yep, that's the joke
You’re going to have to explain what the joke is for those of us too dumb to get it.
I didn't realize you were both sidesing the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Nor that Russia was doing settler colonialism. Very wise of you.
Nor that Russia was doing settler colonialism.
Ah. It's just a good old annexation. That's totally fine.
I'll remember that when my stupid country makes an attempt to annex Canada... Which is not invading their home, because it's not settler colonialism?
So if Putin slaughtered all Ukrainian civilians you'd not be any more upset?
To understand the terminology and why it's important: On 'Arab Colonialism'
...Okay.
First of, of course I would. What would make you think I wouldn't? I'm upset with how many civilians are dying now. And I'm upset with genocides elsewhere.
Second. How does that stop this meme from applying to Russia/Ukraine?
Because third panel wants to live in their house not take over their country
Because third panel wants to live in their house not take over their country
Again. I will remember this when the US more seriously talks up 'taking over' Canada; but not living in their house. Not a crisis of imperialist aggression, by that argument, unless you wish to clarify?
Peak whataboutism
Couches and automans for Palestine
Don't forget the sequel: "you just don't understand the history of this region house, honestly you're coming into this discussion way too late, the nuance of this conflict has just been going on so long it's hard to tell who's at fault."
Me: "Ah, another Ukraine meme..."
lemmy.ml
Me: "Ah. My mistake." Tips hat
While I understand the compulsion to ignore and distract oneself from the ever growing list of atrocities around the world, I find it to be a personal responsibility to maintain rather than a public obligation to protect.
Instead of crying for mommy and daddy admin to defederate from the ‘.ml badthink’ and build your uncritical hug box for everyone else, you can always block the instance as a whole client side. That why we left Reddit, you are in control of your experience
Or just keep scrolling and stow the comment instead of demanding others change, but maybe I’m a weirdo idk
