      I don’t think they’re pro-Putin? Seem to be as much against Russian imperialism and capitalism as they are against US’s.

      Edit: Lmao one of the first comments I saw on there:

      Putin will be a narcissistic fence sitter who abuses power for his own ends

      So yeah, not very “pro-Putin”

          I do wonder how much of that is Russian psyop. I feel like the whole chapotraphouse thing was started or at least very influenced by bad actors and propaganda bots. That place was a removedshow, for sure.

            Probably none of it, but knowing how Russia is that wouldn’t surprise me. That’s just how tankies are, no need for russian intervention. They’re just as bad as Nazis for “that genocide didn’t happen, but if it did they deserved it” type removed

        “I found literally one comment that doesn’t support Putin so clearly the tankie instance doesn’t support him!”

          I literally have a hexbear account. People scream that the tankies love putin and that couldn’t be further from the truth. USSR? Yes but they removed on modern day Russia a lot

            I would tell you to go to hell for being on hexbear, but apparently you haven’t been on there enough to see how pro-russia and pro-Putin tankies tend to be

                Hey look literally your most recent comment is pushing the “meat grinder” narrative that Zelensky is evil for sending innocent people to die in “his” war of aggression xD

                  Yeah what’s your point? It’s pretty obvious that’s what’s happening. Fighting a losing battle, making no progress. You gonna tell me that Russias on the brink of collapse next?

                    You’re so right bestie! Ukraine should just roll over and let Russia take all their land and children and treat them like removed :D

                r/genzedong and I think a couple other tankie subreddits literally got taken down for spreading pro-russia disinformation https://time.com/6160519/reddit-international-hate-speech-ban/ . I’ve seen a bunch of removed from them and from hexbear and grad about how Putin is based for denazifying Ukraine and removed, but no number of actual examples of that I could link would change your mind bc putin’s boot just tastes too nice to you, so why would I even bother subjecting myself to cunts like you calling for Ukrainian and Jewish genocide?
