      I wouldn’t say they are “in the right” just that they have reasonable wants and have tried every diplomatic option already. The west backed them into a corner and they stood their ground. At least more people are realising that this war isn’t just Frodo taking the ring to Mordor to defeat Sauron. (Do libs read LOTR? I guess they’ve watched the movies.)

          Yeah, they already call us “red fash” and try to lump us in with PatSocs. The semantics are annoying, but it is important to clarify our positions and resist easy answers.

              Right now at least there are a fair few lib lurkers. They’ve been told we’re all evil Putin puppets who hate freedom and love violence. We need to clarify our positions for the sake of the “audience” I guess. (Only if you feel like it though, this is just my personal perspective on how to deal with the reddit influx).
