Lemmy since the reddit collapse

Since you can’t see the irony in your initial comment, let me spell it out for you in a way you might be able to understand:
You drone on about maxed convictions while being wrong. But, you’re literally doing the same thing that you whine pointlessly about: your original comment is nothing but a shitty, baseless generalized opinion about a large group of people, with zero substance.
But you keep fighting the fight, big dog!
Your post is literally “DuMb LIbrhULS” with bonus noise. Self-projecting much?
Well here’s the thing. Mr. Huffman, Reddit CEO, thinks that he and his board of executives owns the content in the screenshot and all other posts on Reddit. He’s even gone out of his way to let it be known that this belongs to him, and it’s his to profit from any way he damn well pleases.
Why the hell should the guy who deleted his comment give away his hard earned knowledge to benefit Steve, who clearly has shown he thinks the rest of us are just ants in his anthill of capitalistic endeavors.
keep your racism and flippancy to yourself.
Refuting the FUD produced by the 5 or 6 communist astroturfer accounts in this thread is not racism. Calling out multiple attempts of gaslighting the legitimacy of the Maduro government and Russia's foul influence in the world of politics is not racism. Fortunately for the rest of us, your being communist and being anti-west is not a race.
About 45% of approval (for Maduro)
This is literally not possible outside of some phony, made-up poll put on by Maduro's entourage. Venezuela has been teetering on yet another period of hyperinflation over the past year (reaching up to 155%). Minimum wage in Venezuela will not even provide a single person with enough food for sustenance. Do you truly, in whatever distorted reality you live in, believe that 45% of people living there are supporters of this shit? There's just no way, outside of imprisoning and torturing people who present opposition (hello Russia!) that you could reach 45% approval for Maduro. This is a fucking dumb take that even communist shills should have a hard time swallowing.
This forum is not only for Yankees
I never assumed your background outside of being a government-funded astroturfer for communism, which is clear as daylight from your comment history. Just like several of the other pro-Maduro, "BRICS is awesome" promoting commenters in this thread.
"China and India are literally fighting each other along their border", Your response: Are they? And how would it be relevant?
Well gee, BRICS is supposed to be a group of countries helping each other out! Here, have some money from the BRICS bank! You really don't see how the largest countries in BRICS literally killing each other might not be the best display of solidarity? Damn, look at how well they collaborate together! The west better be scared!
Russia also had its own election in 2018
You can't really believe this shit you spew around here, right? Russia freely and democratically elected Putin as much as my mother is the Duly Elected President of the Entire Fucking Solar System. They even imprisoned and have been torturing (ever since) the only guy who truly ran against him, Alexei Navalny. Read the news, man! This shit has been out in broad daylight for years. There's even videos of interviewers asking Russians about it and they're too damn scared shitless to answer out of fear of being sent to the gulag for speaking against the status quo. If Russia is your given example of a functioning democracy, it's no wonder you're such a cheerleader for communism. Hell, I might be too if that was the only example I ever saw.
BRICS (all of whom have democratically elected leaders)
** My eyes roll straight out of my fucking head ** yeah I think I'm done here. There's no getting through to you.
Whoa dudes, they really sent the big daddy troll farm boss out today! That's great though because the more time he spends here the less time he has for spreading misinformation elsewhere.
I also think of the adults, y’know, those who support Maduro?
Who in their right mind, living in Venezuela and seeing their buying power drop by 60,000% (that 2018 hyperinflation was quite a ride!) over the past 5 years would support Maduro? You can't really be serious, right? There's turmoil all throughout the world over 50% inflation... imagine 60,000%!? How fucking clueless do you have to be to pretend like there's this huge swell of Maduro supporters?
It is also strange for you to describe a Venezuelan born in Venezuela as both Russian and Manchurian.
A Manchurian Candidate is "a person, especially a politician, being used as a puppet by an enemy power." Straight from Dictionary.com. This probably got lost in your troll farm translation software. Who the hell would think Maduro is Russian or actually Manchurian? Just... what?
Those dudes you name dropped are really cool and all, but it doesn't change the simple fact that of the three largest members of BRICS:
- China and India are literally fighting each other along their border
- Russia is locked in an endless war that it started and is being sanctioned to economic starvation by the free, democratically-elected half the world.
But yeah, what a cool trade block to be a part of. They all must be so thrilled.
It's really cute and cuddly of you to paint this as a net benefit for the people (oh, won't you just think of the children!?). But I think what was best for Venezuelans was, you know, maybe abiding by the results of their democratic election in 2019 and not letting some shitty Russian Manchurian candidate rule the country. Thanks to the "leadership" of Maduro, Venezuelans have experienced hyperinflation more than once in the past 5 years. But I'm sure his choice to lead Venezuela into BRICS is a super-bright 5D chess move, you're right buddy. Have fun hanging out with Jinping, Putin and Modi. I'm sure those guys are super nice and would never sell anyone down the river for a quick buck.
It’s literally the super majority of both countries exports, but yeah sure they’ll start trading super computers 🤣
Click the link and scroll down! Sorry I forgot bots and troll farms can’t read!
Omgggggg never thought I would see someone that isn’t a card toting CCP member try to validate the Great firewall.
Sure buddy, it has nothing to do with keeping the blinders in their population. Hilariously bad take on your side.
There’s hundreds of sources at the bottom, compared to the… meme you provided? Great argument, though!
Yeah, this will be so great! I'm sure Venezuela and Russia can't wait to trade their looks at notes oil with each other in rubles and bolívares. Who the hell would hold a ton of those currencies unless they were forced to anyways? How many millions of bolívares to one US Dollar is it today? Great job, Maduro. Really leading with excellence over there.
These dudes lighting fireworks over this trade block full of cronies is hilarious.
Only a troll farm could produce such a shit-take. Guiado was voted president by the Venezuelan people, but petro-dictator-for-life Maduro got his ass saved by Russia.
Venezuelan Presidential Crisis
Have fun trading with the Russians in BRICS though! They can’t even afford socks for their soldiers in Ukraine, they’re wearing foot wraps God’s sake!
Two nuclear weapon-capable Russian planes landed in Venezuela in December 2018 in what Reuters called a “show of support for Maduro’s socialist government.”[389]So, what, they stationed a few troops and some equipment there?
You just quoted them packing in two nuclear-capable planes... and then say it was a "few troops"? That's a pretty damn big stick to prevent anyone else trying to stop their illegitimate government from being taken down.
I’d hardly say that’s proof that Russia isn’t a hasbeen country. That’s just a desperate attempt to seem important.
This is you moving the goal post in your attempt to gaslight factual events that happened. I never made any statements about Russia's current state.
Although lol if you think Guaidó is the legitimate president and not just a US backed puppet.
Apparently the people of Venezuela thought he was the legitimate president. They voted him the winner of their presidential election. The people of Venezuela knew what was best for them, and it wasn't the status quo petro-king-for-life that is Maduro. Look at their economy since all this played out.
But from your comment history, you're clearly communist and anti-democracy. Why would you care what the people voted. You just want to pin everything that doesn't fit your narrative on to the US. What a dull, lazy take on the world.
Enjoy making your knock-off Android phones at Huawei for $3 an hour, no overtime, 70 hours a week. Some bad ass communism though! I hope you get a couple of points of social credit from the CCP for your efforts here today! Keep sticking it to those western capitalists with their 40 hour work weeks!
Not that you can read any of these from behind the Great Firewall. Enjoy your ignorance.
Wikipedia Detailing the Events
Australian News Source Covering Russian Military Involvement
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_involvement_in_the_Venezuelan_presidential_crisis#Russian_presence There's literally 100 citations at the bottom of the page, maybe you should learn to use a search engine? There's a whole fucking section titled Russian Presence
Doesn't matter what sources I quote anyways, the Chinese troll farm is gonna troll.
That was just the first article that came up when I searched. Russian military involvement after the 2019 Venezuelan election is well known and was covered by international news agencies at the time. I'm sorry they don't give you any access to those news sources behind the Great Firewall. Not that your boss would let you read anything like that during your shift at the Chinese troll farm, anyways.
Dude, when the current Venezuelan “government” lost their last election, who’s military went to Venezuela to anchor their illegitimate ass in place? Yep, the Russians.
People on here commenting about global power in a news community, but apparently forgot the news from just a few short years ago.

I said nothing about BRICS, but great job projecting racism where it doesn’t exist.
This might be a “deep” and thought inspiring comment if the original post wasn’t calling liberals the loudest and dumbest people here. Yours was a nice try at establishing a false equivalence.
Great job carrying water for this moron, though!
