Part of the reason the left hates Russia is because it has doubled down on its Orthodox roots, in the last decade…
This is also why they hate Lebanese Christians (this is your area of expertise, no?), Syrian Christians, and fucking White South African farmers for that matter…
I mean really, the only thing that should surprise you about this is the ignorance. The wild hypocrisy and inconsistency definitely should not, lol…
More generally: the left now pretty much hates anyone who isn’t a) a leftist, b) an atheist, c) a woke corporate/academic, d) a Buddhist or e) a Muslim…
I suppose Black Christians get included in that, too. Because “logic”…

Some people claim that the whole anti-Russia thing started with the passage of the "anti-gay" law disallowing spreading homosexual propaganda to minors. That was in 2013 I think. Before that, it was the Mitt Romney types obsessing over Russia.

I would not take Supreme's ravings too seriously. He was our best contributor on the subreddit, but the man has gone crazy with grief over the situation that he cheers the "slaughter" of Russians whom he calls "orcs". I have only ever revealed my general location and the general location where I'm from, simply as a security measure. It would be far too easy to find out who I am otherwise. Hopefully, he'll go back to his old self soon.
But yes, they don't give a damn about Christians in the Middle East, while supposedly standing for those who are "powerless". The trick is to say that Christians hold "power in the world", so you're then fine with oppression of some of the most persecuted people in the world. At least one of them argued in 2014 that ISIS' massacres were justified because of the Crusades (because they're stupid enough to think that ME Christians are descendants of the Crusaders).

Oh, they hate Buddhists in Myanmar...

Oh, it's easy. Most Black Christians support their agenda, so they're friends, and they're good. If they changed their minds and opposed their agenda, they'd flip the switch and they'd go to enemies instantenously. Black Christians are the real white supremacists.
I know I should not hate people but is hard to not hate leftists, is not like it was not common knowledge that Ukraine is a religious country or that being religious yourself does not invalidates other peoples religious believes.
I just can't stand the shallowness of their belief system, just can't.
Right. They have their own religion and consider Christianity heresy. They were were "performing miracles" at the site Saint George of Fentanyl ODed. But their holiest sacremant is touching children.
The funny thing is, the western part of Ukraine is more religious than the eastern part (which like Russia has a lot more atheists).
Their lives are just pure obedience to the powers that be. The powers told them "religion bad", so they obey, then they said "Ukraine good". Now they have cognitive dissonance.
You know, like 1/3 of all Americans think most people in America are black and gay because this is what they see in the popculture.
I think the only portrayal of Ukrainians as Christians in American popular culture was in The Deer Hunter and in the 1980s 1978 and most people only know the Vietnam deathgame scenes.
they were okay with Neo-Nazis (actual Neo-Nazis, not the scary nazis that progressives pretend are everywhere), but not with religious Christians. really says a lot.
They never gave a shit about Nazis except to the extent the Nazis threatened tranny degeneracy. The moral panic about Nazis was all about tricking the normies.
obviously "they", as in the ruling elites, didn't care. but normie leftists also didn't care when you pointed it out. they had no problem telling you that "it's different" or that "haha they're not really nazis"
Normie leftists aren't afraid of anything. They just pretend to be afraid of whatever the MSM tells them to pretend to be afraid of. The average leftist claims to be terrified of fascism, but not one of them can define it. You cannot fear what you can't even identify.
If leftists were afraid of nazis, they wouldn't be holding hourly pride parades and openly celebrating degeneracy.
It's funny too, because in terms of the human race, atheists are a very stark minority, and to assume otherwise is not only arrogant, but extremely uneducated as to how our species has existed for thousands of years.
Yeah, but they don’t care about the human race as a whole. Hence why “Whites” cannot be considered a minority to them. And why they think childlessness is normal, rather than an aberration…
Christ, I even have to explain to people here, sometimes, that just because something is the norm in America/the West, doesn’t make it “normal” everywhere else…
They will find some way to demonize a group.. man, straight, white, christian.. etc etc. I bet some of those ukraine flag wavings dont give two shits about the ukrainian people. Only cared because of some rumors or unsubstantiated reports of gays being killed.
I bet some of those ukraine flag wavings dont give two shits about the ukrainian people
Some? Try nearly all.
They care as much about the Ukrainian people as they do about the Yemeni or Armenian people. They were just told to wave the Ukrainian flag, so they obey.
I don’t think it’s overly fair to include Armenia in this one. Leftists are likely to side with the Muslim Azeris over the Christian Armenians any day…
I actually meant that they care about neither Yemen nor Armenia. Some of the anti-militarist leftists care about Yemen, but that's basically the extent of it.
The sheer speed of which everyone suddenly could pronounce Kyiv and could recognize the flag of Ukraine because it was on every third house/car didn't leave any time to actually research the country itself.
Russia bad, which means if Russia invade other side good. No further thought was put in.
who cannot comprehend that there are other faiths and that there are people who follow other faiths (impossible)
It's not that hard to comprehend, we just think you're pathetic. Interesting that you're seeking "muh validity".
We were here first and we still exist.
Picking up the pieces of dead mysticism and enjoying "the cool parts" while ignoring all other aspects of Paganism only reveals that you're a larping tryhard. Doubly so when a significant portion of paganism is obese bluehairs casting spells on twitter. Guess that's where your search for validation comes from.
"You mean they're not going to their deaths for rainbow flags and transing kids? FUCK THEM!"
These people are truly incredible.
I actually don’t think this is that surprising…

Wut? That should be the least surprising thing about regressives.

They don't hate religion generally. They hate Christians, and the hatred of demons is a great endorsement of Christianity.
Right. They have their own religion and consider Christianity heresy. They were were "performing miracles" at the site Saint George of Fentanyl ODed. But their holiest sacremant is touching children.
The funny thing is, the western part of Ukraine is more religious than the eastern part (which like Russia has a lot more atheists).

I mean yes. Lviv is clearly a very important religious city, for many different groups…
Same with Odessa to an extent. Same with Kyiv.
The Donbass cities were more… Industrial, and like you say, a very different history.
Kharkiv, notably, seems to be somewhere in between, you might say. Which makes sense.

There’s actually a good cartoon on this… Can’t remember who did it, but the same group who makes cartoons of Biden’s gaffe-prone speeches.
I saw it on YouTube. Basically, what if progressives brought WW2 soldiers forward in time to fight modern “Nazis”. It’s actually very good.
It's not FreedomToons is it?
Yep, I think it might be, in fact…
That sounds familiar.
If they’re the ones that animate the speeches, then yes.
the useful idiots might be but the technocrats still need the Ukie money laundering machine so the narrative isnt shifting anytime soon

It is the topic of the week. Once the next topic comes up all the NPCs will switch over without a thought.

Unfortunately…
I actually meant that they care about neither Yemen nor Armenia. Some of the anti-militarist leftists care about Yemen, but that's basically the extent of it.
The jews all left, wokies. Chew on that.
Not Vladimir Zelensky. Besides, there were not that many left.
The sheer speed of which everyone suddenly could pronounce Kyiv and could recognize the flag of Ukraine because it was on every third house/car didn't leave any time to actually research the country itself.
Russia bad, which means if Russia invade other side good. No further thought was put in.
Actual, unironic Nazis that are well established within the military? Not a problem, who even cares about Azov Battalion?
Christians showing empathy and support for their fellow soldiers? Outrageous, they're barely even human!
Nothing is going to change just because the useful idiots are revolting. They have zero power
The 'desert cults' shaped Western civilization. It is their loss that has led us off the rails.
Pagans stop being massive faggots challenge (impossible)

Feels like you have that urge though.
Not really. That would be neo Pagans like yourself being jokes. You behave like dipshits and then wonder why you get treated with the kiddy gloves.
Lmao enjoy your gay cult
