      I can only imagine a lot of these insane and heavily upvoted posts on reddit are just part of the good ol’ US psyops.

      They’ve been pulling shit like this since back in the heydays of Fark.com when the military basically overran the entire site and made it look like thousands of people were suddenly super concerned with the green revolution in Iran out of nowhere. They also shadow banned anyone that pointed out what was going on.

        God, it’s so hard to separate reality from fiction thanks to these spook fucks. I guess that’s the point.

          It’s best to assume that on any social media site that is owned by amerikkan bigtech companies, that at least half the accounts you see are bots and another good chunk are someone’s second, third, fifth, … account, where “that someone” is likely a very biased person who may or may not have been paid by some party whose intentions may vary.

          Like the other commenter pointed out, I too have seen something like this happen before. And some years ago I remember reading an article where someone was deploying a lot of bot accounts on reddit to conduct an experiment (I think it was something like, the bots would randomly either downvote or upvote a freshly created post by somebody to see how real people would react to that).

          Also it’s very easy to buy upvotes, downvotes and comments:

          https://boostupvotes.com/

          https://www.appsally.com/products/reddit-comments/

          https://www.appsally.com/products/youtube-likes-comments/

          https://buzzvoice.com/youtube/comments/order

          And if you’re a bit tech savvy you can even deploy your own bots with minimal effort. Programming a reddit bot is not hard, in fact there is a Python library for the reddit API which seems to be pretty popular.

          Remember this comrades: PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET DO NOT AND WILL NEVER REFLECT A SOCIETY IRL. INTERNET POINTS HOLD NO VALUE WHATSOEVER.

            Why do you think they do all of this? Because when they can pass off Nazism as “normal” then libs will gobble it up. Sure at first it’s just a bunch of bot accounts, but let those bots promote Nazism on reddit for a while and regular users will slowly start parroting the same talking points as well, then after a while you start hearing it in real life from friends and family.

    “the free world”, also i love how he blabbers about “authoritarian tendencies” while literally promoting genocide. Yes, its genocide, remember that forced castration due to ethnicity is genocide according to the UN definition.

        I mean i heard claim that Russians are basically Mongol rapehorde ex fucking cathedra in university… of course from the professor who thinks being detained for 2 hours in the 1981 makes him the anticommunist freedom martyr.

        And it was nearly 30 years ago, so i dread how it is now, though that particular guy croaked already i think.

      Nope. Because if they do, they might start asking uncomfortable questions of the powers that be. Since this is not desirable for them, the population must be kept in perpetual state of childlike hyper emotional hysteria, reacting with outrage at anything the bastards in charge show them. No time to think, you must screech!

    I really love how given the correct target, you can make liberals sound exactly like what they say they hate, but even more unhinged. Scratch a liberal, you know.

      I remember how some lib long before the war told me that racism towards Russians is actually good, and killing of Russian speaking residents in Donbass is completely justified.

      It was eyes opening moment for me.

    How the fuck is chemical castration of immigrants anti-authoritarian? These idiots invent all these genocide tactics in their head and then pretend this is all for the benefit of the free world. Also, I love the Trump Derangement Syndrome that inevitably crops up every time Russia is mentioned. These guys are incapable of moving on from Trump who hasn’t been in office for nearly 2 years.

        Btw, chemical castration isnt like, harmless. It fucks up your entire hormone system and can gives you mental issues and permanently damages your testicles, leaving you permanently sterile and without masculine steroids. This makes you permanently tired, you become fat easier (with all the health problems that carries like obesity, hypertension, hypercolesterolemia, etc), you lose muscular mass and become depressed. But these nazis promoting it like its Tylenol.

        … you can though. People are raped with objects, you know. Also rapists don’t rape cause they’re horny, we’re all horny (except some asexuals, bless you), they rape because they’re rapists.

            Rape has a lot more to do with dominance than it does sex. Although yeah, arousal can and probably often is a big trigger, but let’s take child molesters as an example. A lot of them are pedophiles seeking sexual gratification, but a lot of them aren’t pedophiles and feel no attraction towards children. Yet they still molest.

            There’s also factors like how the elderly, the sick, disabled and very young are more likely to be raped. If it was just a matter of arousal then everyone would be equally at risk, and nearly everyone would be a rapist.

      This was posted on reddit r/shitliberalssay and they censor the names because reddit bans them if they don’t.

    Classic reddit…

    Just in AskReddit sub alone, reading threads on “what people would do if time was frozen” and you can expect what a number of replies would be…

    There was also that whole “Ask a Rapist” thread which was shut down and many of them were fucking sympathising with the offenders.

      Genuinely curious…what is there to sympathize with rapists?? Like, so many crimes can be sympathetic, but that?? Were they at least sympathizing with the rapist’s own history of sexual trauma or what??

        From what I remember, they were reassuring some of those rapists that what they committed “wasn’t entirely their fault” or something similar.

        A psychologist warned how dangerous it was to allow them a chance to retell their stories and possibly encourage them to commit another heinous crime…

        There’s a few comments saved in the MuseumOfReddit sub if anyone’s curious.

    For the strong opposition to unproven rape, the Liberals are very tolerant of Hollywood rampart rapist culture and support Hollywood rapist tendency with their media power unless it concerns successful black people.

    Given Brett Kavanaugh on the Supreme Court and Trump and Biden as President, it seems rape is an American core value so these “rapey Russians” should fit right in to 'murikkkan society.
