Hexbear's horde of mouthbreathers

Never heard of hexbear but why does an instance that claims to be leftist use Trump memes and back Russia?

[-] TomBombadil@hexbear.net 41 points 1 year ago

Trump is funny. Obviously. Terrible but hilarious. We don't back Russia we just understand NATO to generally be far more destructive and deadly. That's just old Tom Bombadilaros thoughts.

That's so dumb... To consider a defensive alliance more destructive and deadly that a corrupt state waging a war of expansion

[-] Flinch@hexbear.net 40 points 1 year ago

Hell yeah brother we defended the shit out of Libya freedom-and-democracy

[-] UnicodeHamSic@hexbear.net 40 points 1 year ago

A defence of what? The people who invented global warming? Nah, hard pass.

[-] Grimble@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago

Sure it's defensive, I just wish the people it's defending were attacked more gigachad

A Defensive alliance made up of all the great colonial powers.

Defensive alliance that bombs every third world country that dares to go against the interests of the imperial core? Who are they "defending again?

us-foreign-policy

Also how much has NATO expanded since the end of the cold war with its mafia protection racket style tactics in Europe?

Serbia, Libya, and Afghanistan were all defensive operations.

defensive alliance

NATO is defensive? lol, lmao

a corrupt state

That's Ukraine, it used to be considered the most corrupt place in Europe by the Western media right until February 2022

waging a war of expansion

That's also Ukraine since they're trying to take territory from the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics after they declared independence following the coup against Viktor Yanukovych in 2014
