  • Why?

    What does that impossible thought experiment achieve?

    I could just tell people to have nuance and not fall prey to idolising a right wing bigot who is less shit than the right wing bigot that imprisoned him?

    Again this message is to those outside of Russia, some random thought experiment that goes nowhere but to continue this conversation and give you the ego to go "well ackshually" means shit all in the scheme of things.

  • I'm not on Lemmy to convince Russians about what opinion they should hold tho. I'm stating an opinion about the matter on a public forum not exclusively for Russians.

    We shouldn't delude ourselves on the outside that this is a good person, even if he is an improvement on the current leadership. That is my point, because you see this time and time again, to the point that the outside world starts to essentially simp for the slightly less shit person.

  • I don't see why it is useless to apply the standards of developed countries, if you're a right wing shithead with horrible views, you're a right wing shithead with horrible views. Just because you are imprisoned by a bigger shithead doesn't excuse your views or actions.

    We ofc should keep advocating for his release under spurious charges that he finds himself under as we should across the world.

  • You do realise that's not what the person above said. What the people actually worship in Bethlehem itself means Jack shit to the opinion of the wider world that Bethlehem, the birthplace of the saviour of the Wests biggest religion, was attacked by Israeli forces on the date celebrated as his birthday.

  • My GF works with autistic individuals and for a majority of them they simply cannot lie, at least not big lies. He may not even see it as being that wrong (probably does know to some extent that it is wrong), especially with all the (correct) rhetoric that companies are scum bastards obscuring the truth. The kid is indeed unhireable for the time being but he could be helped to understand the morals, ethics and laws surrounding his interests to integrate him into the capitalistic world he finds himself in.

  • Are you then not a leftist for supporting a far right wing extremely religious organisation that only exists to destroy Jewish presence in the region. Hamas are no liberators for Palestinians, they are simply using them as a tool. That is equally traitorous to leftism as supporting Israel. The people that matter are fucked either way, just in different ways.
