I'm glad we can agree on this.

I was on .ml about 2 years before .world existed and discovered tankies and their ideas

russia amassing troops on the ukrainian border? just exercises, don't believe western propaganda.
Days later, invasion. well no it's actually ukraine invading russia (I shit you not)
oh well ok it's a "military operation", but that's because they're nazis, and bio weapon laboratories to attack russia. Etc,etc

If you have 2 braincells compare tankie and far right talking points, and underline the similarities

NATO was amassing troops & missile deployments on the border with Ukraine for years. Since Obama.

Almost like Ukraine has been invaded by them before, perhaps during said presidents second term?

For like three months before the invasion, Western sources were egging it on with everything they had. Tankies mostly got it wrong by assuming that Putin would be smart enough not to take the bait, because we all recognized that it would be a disastrously bad idea.

Oh hey we were right about that much at least.

Look at the mental gymnastics required so they can end the comment with

Oh hey we were right

And feel better about themselves. Pathetic
