finally decided to create an account here after lurking for well over a year and originally posting on r/cth years ago

i’ve been listening to my very liberal family talk about what’s going on and i love them but their liberal brain worms are just so maddening. “someone should just assassinate putin” “putin is trying to recreate the ussr” “how can ukraine be run by nazis when their president is jewish?? stupid putin” “putin is doing this because he’s a narcissist and a dictator” “this basically means that china is free to do the same to taiwan if they wanted nothing’s stopping them” and “ukraine and russia are like a toxic, abusive relationship where russia won’t let ukraine see other people (NATO) after they broke up (collapse of USSR)” are just a few examples of the takes i’ve heard from them today. now they’re going on about russian cyber attacks (“they did it in 2016 for our election!” lol), at least they’re anti-american intervention in this case. i’ve dropped a few things here and there about the azov battalion being nazis and about how the U.S. meddling to get Yeltsin elected and the 2014 U.S backed Ukranian coup were key to what’s happening now unfolding, but just to give them tid bits of information i’m far too exhausted to effort post irl and argue with them about how NATO is actually in the wrong here.

but yeah about all of that seems to be the average, american liberal consensus on the subject right now based off what i’ve been hearing

i don’t think i’ve ever seen a post this jaw droppingly bizarre, it deserves to be put in a posting hall of fame

i definitely don’t think this is a sincere apology (probably him wanting his good pr back, wanting to get his name back in the news, and/or maybe realized he went too hard but still holds some antisemitic views which is apparent given the third line) but it makes sense in a way. you can’t logic people like kanye out of their hateful views and that same goes for right wingers trolling online, bullies in school, etc., nothing rational will make them change their mind because their worldviews weren’t rational to begin with. but something as dumb as watching a funny movie with a jewish guy in it? maybe? idk, i definitely don’t think this is the end of this though i 100% guarantee he’ll say something wildly antisemitic within the next 6 months

i took trigonometry in high school but it was during covid so i didn’t learn shit but i’m taking it again in college and it’s blowing my mind how connected math is to everything, specifically music with how the graph of something like y=cos(theta) is a sine wave. and that’s something i can hear! i’ve listened to songs today with sine wave synths in them! and all that shit comes from shapes and triangles!!!

genuinely suprised at the reaction to this post

obviously capitalist alienation isn’t our faults individually and is a societal problem and we shouldn’t be irresponsible about covid but you all are proving their point in a way jesus christ

why do these types always assume transgender people would be killed under communism?

very awesome that NBC just uncritically reported that hamas is beheading babies just 10 minutes ago on air even though literally nothing like that has been confirmed whatsoever
