I'm sorry, but that's not about pro-communism and anti-communism. You know Russia is no longer a communist country, right? That's about pro-war and anti-war. Blaming Ukraine for the start of the war and following genocide (or denying that genocide happening) is one of the most absurd and dangerous fakes created by Russian propaganda and it deserves to be challenged.

You made it about communism by complaining about tankies, I was simply responding to that point. All of us are aware that Russia is no longer socialist, neither is Ukraine, to both of their detriments. You are covering up the ethnic cleansing committed by Kiev against the Donbass region, which is why Russia entered the Ukrainian civil war 8 years after it started. Russia is not committing genocide, but arguably Kiev was towards the ethnic Russians in the Donbass region.

You didn't challenge anything, you just started ranting about communists and threw around ableist terminology.
