had a look on reddit-logo because i'm special like that:

We literally have communists in Congress representing Russia and Putin. And guess what ? They are 💯 % Republicans.

The US should support Ukraine. The Russians are using their bought puppets to try and subvert the election this year as well as trying to start a civil war in the US (again). For that reason alone we should be opposing ANYTHING that Russia wants and that includes supporting Ukraine.

My favourite is this one:

CW: redditism

Never thought I’d see the day the Americans were too cowardly to stand up to Russia. Gonna suck when it’s eventually US bodies in the trenches of Europe instead of Ukrainians.

There are so many quiet parts said out loud there I don't even know where to begin listing them.

I also like this one, for implying that Russia winning will mean control over the fucking Atlantic Ocean!

CW: redditism

It’s not just that… China never runs Taiwan and suddenly you have China facing off the pacific and Russia overlooking the Atlantic and USA is in the middle

redditors make me feel things.

Those are a lot. Damn. I usually make fun of libs for being overly verbose, but those two sentences contain a neutron star's worth of condensed bullshit.
