Where did this one come from? It’s the most Reddit one I’ve seen yet, complete with gamer brain.

      Holy hell, you’re right! I was thinking “Level 1” and “closer analysis” were contradictory, but they literally mean a cursory glance of the facts from the western perspective disagrees with hexbear.

      Also “closer analysis” is some real “Does the pope shit in the woods” stuff.

      Except it usually disagrees with the lib anyway. For instance, I never saw a single ‘millions died in Tienanmen Square :o’ lib acknowledge any of the relevant facts in Wikipedia, including that there was no massacre in the square (though it’s still worded to repeatedly imply that there was).

        They also pretend that the Wikipedia page for Holodomor doesn’t mention the vast amounts of historians that contradict the genocide accusation and instead pretend it’s universally recognized like the Holocaust to piggy back off its evidence to imply you’re a genocide denier for arguing with them

        I’ve always said this, anti-tankie radlibs are far to the right of your typical Ivy league right wing and lib academics when it comes to geopolitics and AES history, it’s ridiculous

          for your typical yankee, history is more of a vibe from which occasional Numbered Date emerges to denote beginning of a war.
