Idk what this comment said, but considering how hard that tankie mod is scrambling to delete it and all other evidence that people here don't like Russia I'm gonna say I wholeheartedly agree and will do anything I can to help :3
Edit: not if the original comment was racist garbage towards Russian civilians or anything ofc, I don't know what most of the deleted stuff said and I wasn't super generous earlier assuming the comments deleted were just critical of the Russian government or that the mod had a pro Russia bias. I wouldn't blame that user for saying racist things about Russians if they were Ukrainian, I would understand it even if I don't think it's very helpful, but people not directly screwed by Russia posting that degree of hateful stuff about their citizens is just wrong imo
Genocide. It called for genocide.
That figures :c fuck that person, wiping out innocent people isn't justified no matter how much their government does it
As it turns out, the enemy of your enemy isn't always your friend

I'm not pro-Russia by any means but this is some extremely troubling rhetoric
Dude, I'm literally just saying it's wrong to generalize an entire people as a "cancer." If you seriously can't see the reason in that, I honestly don't know what else to say.
Removed, racism against Russians is still racism.

That's fucked up and wrong.
All the Russians I met in Moscow when I visited were kind, decent people. It's the leaders that are shitbags.

Good job bud.
Copy/pasta from the sidebar. Thanks! I'll get it fixed!
Masterbation is a great form of self care, idk what you're talking about about.
if anyone can teach me how to fuck myself, it's a Russian, they are the world champs
that's what i like, a little bravery.. good boy.. did you see what the Russians did when the last brave Russian was murdered in a prison cell in the middle of the night? the Russians went out into the street and felt sorry for THEMSELVES!! they are hilarious.. but that's good, you tell that guy on the internet to go fuck himself.. that's a start..

Is Russian a race?
Wow, the mods are working extra hard on this post.
Ugh. BI. Can we get an archive link please so I don’t have to deal with that shitty website?
deleted by creator AND removed by mod
🤣
The lowest quality of journalism as usual .
Click bait for dead heads.
At this stage Medvedev is using nuclear threats to separate paragraphs in his speeches.
"We will increase petrochemical output by 5%.
Nuke the West with an Atomnaya Bomba.
As defined by OECD estimates, we plan on this economic growth to take place through the remainder of 2024.”
Medvedev is so funny, he just rants about nuking the west or some other crazy shit every time he has the chance
The threats are constant. The last one, less than two weeks ago.
Never believe that trolls like that are unaware of how absurd their replies are. They know. They don't care. They enjoy acting in bad faith, because they don't actually want to persuade anyone with rational arguments. They want to intimidate, anger and disconcert people.
They literally were trolling tho, they were telling blatant lies that they couldn't possibly think are real. Why are you going in so hard on removing anything and punishing anyone critical of Russia?
Inb4 comment gets removed for being uncivil or something
Oh hey just realized you're not an actual mod, you just wish you were so you could ban those pesky liberals and nazis (people who think Ukraine shouldn't be conquered and its people genocided) x3
which lie did they tell? address that. namecalling is toxic.
i can dislike liberals and nazis and still not think genocide is good. most anarchists do.
your accusation that they are a troll is a personal attack
Well, that sure is an opinion.
no, it's prima facie
The article refers very specifically to a situation I. 2022.
If you think I’m trolling , find me the communication, speech or transcript, from 2022, where putin said he was going to use nukes in Ukraine
It’s needs to be prime source, please. Not An article saying “Putin said”.
you won’t find it , because jt doesn’t exist.
You will instead be confronted with the fact that somewhere along the way, you have lost the ability determine what is a real piece of journalism, and what is click bait, for dead heads.
Edit : and if you are paying attention, I’ve made no comment on the war itself . Only the quality of the articl. So my best advice, is take a deep breath and d carefully consider the words you read, before formulating an opinion and writing a reply.

It's sad that you have to add the /s
No good mate . No nuclear threat, unless attacked with nuclear weapons. This is literally everyone stance on nukes - apart from maybe the Norks .
‘We will use any means necessary to defend our people …blah blah’. Is the most generic war time rhetoric going.
Read it without bias.
No. Their official position is this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russia_and_weapons_of_mass_destruction#Nuclear_weapons_in_Russian_military_doctrine
They annexed Eastern Ukraine, said it was part of Russia, then threatened "all means at our disposal" if anyone threatened Russia's territorial integrity. Russia including Eastern Ukraine (and Crimea). Ie. if Ukraine made too many gains in Eastern Ukraine, they were threatening a nuclear strike.
This isn't a secret. As mentioned above, it's been official doctrine for years now and they keep making these threats. Wikipedia has a summary of some of them:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_risk_during_the_Russian_invasion_of_Ukraine
For example:
https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russias-medvedev-warns-nuclear-response-if-ukraine-hits-missile-launch-sites-2024-01-11/
These are widely understood as nuclear threats in Russian media and by Russian audiences.
I think you just have a hard time comprending what a threat to do something is.
Threats are not often direct statements if intent. Other things like moving nuclear weapons closer to the front is a form of threats. Or saying you will use nukes to defend your territory then shortly passing a law which claims the land you invaded as your territory.

Lol it what world is my comment above a personal attack or being uncivil.
But them gaslighting everyone on the forums about Russian nuclear threats being fake news isn't smh.
I was debating putting a /s on there, I guess I should've oops
I 100% agree with you, I was making fun of that one account copying and pasting rules in reply to comments calling out that kind of mis/disinformation
Hey buddy, bring the those goalposts back over here.
Okay completely unsubstantial reply. English must not be your first language if you don't consider those clear examples of a threat.
русский бот
What do you want me to do ? You’ve completely strawmanned it. You wanna argue about what can be interpreted as a threat, go ahead, but you’ll need to find someone interested.
I’ve shown that this is a garbage article, that’s not original work but instead written about another article, which itself was based on a non specific threat. Which is the only claim I ever made.
On the other hand, You’ve shown you’ll buy anything you read on the internet, and that you prefer to argue with people rather than do any thinking - and I’m afraid that’s not my problem.
“I typed it into Google and results came back so it must be true” ?
Is that your level ?
Holy fucking shit.
