  • While they do seem to be pro Ukraine, that’s not their raison d’être.

    They’re just a national defense/defense industry shitpost community with what seems like a genuine appreciation for cool vehicles, aircraft, and other equipment, even if most of them would prefer that equipment was never used for its intended purpose. Credible defense was for serious military posting on Reddit, but I don’t think there is a lemmy community for that.

    Right now a lot of that equipment is being used in Ukraine so a lot of posts reference it.

    Edit: Also, Russia is currently providing a lot of fodder for shitposts.


  • Yup, it’s always “critical support” for any country with an adversarial relationship to the “imperial core” no matter how fucked up they are on human rights, or anything else.

    It’s never critical support for any of the “succdem” countries for their advances on human rights and social safety nets despite not moving towards socialism/communism, and then trying to get them moving in that direction.

    Not that all or even most of the countries they support are actually moving towards socialism/communism either. The countries they list as AES (already existing socialism) make me think they have literal holes in their heads, like that guy that didn’t realize he shot himself in the head with a nail gun for years.

    They’re good at quoting Marx but when it comes to who they support their only requirement is anti-western aligned countries, and they’ll twist their brains into any knots necessary to invent a narrative to justify that support.
