That those comments have half as many downvotes as upvotes doesn’t inspire great confidence. My point stands - ML is much better than Hexbear and Lemmygrad - but that’s not a high point of comparison.
The comment chain is claiming that Russia would be more trigger happy than israel to start WW3 which is a pretty lib take even I wouldn’t agree with. It having downvotes is not strange, though I did not personally downvote them.
‘A pretty lib take’
Fucking what
But the most important point is that they are not getting censored, banned. Which really dispels the illusion that it’s just a giant tankie fest over there.
… is that the only criteria for a tankie fest? Here I thought the criteria was being overrun with fucking tankies.
And in any case, the propensity of the ml admins to censor anything vaguely anti-China as ‘sinophobia’ is well-recorded.
You can find some actual tankies in there but they’re usually swimming in down votes.
That’s complete bull. Anytime I go over there on a pertinent issue one of the top comments is always some tankie or another getting upvotes because he used the popular buzzword of the day.
You think Russia is more trigger happy than israel?
I think Russia has a tendency to pull triggers on bigger guns than Israel does. If Israel starts WW3, it will be by provoking someone into invading them. If Russia starts WW3, it will be BY invading someone.
The likelihood of Putin actually attacking a NATO country is very small.
Yeah, that’s what we said about him doing a full-scale invasion of Ukraine as well.

On one hand, yes.
On the other hand, that’s a low bar.
