Comment on Lemmy.world seems to have banned the largest piracy community on Lemmy.

I’m certain even the pro-independence people living in Taiwan would prefer status quo to looking like Ukraine.

I don’t understand what you’re trying to say
AtmaJnana@lemmy.world 6 months ago
its pretty clear. You’re conversing with a tankie.

My guess is it’s actually an LLM.

How am I to tell who is a tankie, vs a wumao, vs a Russian troll? It can be hard to tell who is commenting in good faith.
I’m kidding, of course. I just block them all. No one using these talking points is worth my time.

Surely anyone who isn’t just begging for rivers of foreign blood must be a robot. Just inconceivable that anyone could want less bloodshed.

A state and it’s people’s interests aren’t the same.
Take self-determination movements; the people in eastern Ukraine want to leave, the state of Ukraine doesn’t want to give up territory.
Supporting the state in this case is opposing the people, supporting the people is opposing the state.
If I was in Russia, I’d have pointed at Syrian Kurdistan before the US invasion/occupation of Syria.

More lies from lemmy.ml, no surprise. The people of eastern Ukraine want to be part of Ukraine. Even the Russian speakers in Ukraine want to be part of Ukraine 2:1.

That was in 2014, there wasn’t even a coherent Ukrainian state and they were going through new presidents every month. A lot changed over the next 10 years. Western Ukraine was shelling Eastern Ukraine right up until the day of the invasion.
