Criticism of Trump is now Russian Propaganda

I really love that it's always specifically Kremlin bots, as if no Russian would ever independently come up with the idea of shitposting on the internet
I suppose there's something about their skull shapes that makes them incapable of doing that idk
- as if no one really would independently criticize trump or usians period.
  honestly this "all russian bots" narrative seems like effective propaganda to delegitimize any valid criticism of the us regime AND dunk on russia for being authoritarian frauds all at the same time.
  even libs here are already paranoid russian bots are all over niche forum lemmy, and somehow think the leftists are the bots, despite russia not having a leftist government since at least the 80s.

  Promotes nationalist mindset too. The two sides in this interaction are not neutral-people and russia, it's america vs russia.
  The only non-nationalist criticism of countries is as an internationalist. All others cause people to become nationalists.
  
  I wish I was a bot instead of a person procrastinating work.
- Almost 1,000 derogatory posts targeting Trump have surfaced on the Russian social media platform VKontakte since Sunday^[https://archive.ph/CRwxD]
  A Russian person becomes a bot when they express an opinion about America.
  
  Waow, almost ONE T H O U S A N D

So uh... Russia good or Trump good now, liberals?
- Trump is gonna be the democrat candidate in 2028
  
  2032, he's not old enough
  
  Technically isn't that possible since his two terms were not consecutive?
- im so confused, i was cheering for the good guys, and against the bad guys, but now the bad guys are saying the bad guys are bad guys so are they good guys? politics is too confusing

Welcome to the resistance donald trump

I guess we should've known that if they had to choose between their ineffectual jabs at Trump, or their racism, they would pick racism every time.
- ot is the foundation of their "civilization" after all
- They already rehabilitated Bush and his regime so they will do it for Trump too.
- Liberalism was born during the age of “categorization of nature” its always been the ideology of colonialists.
- Can we stop calling prejudice against Russians racism?
  
  It is racism though. Do you really think it's limited even just to ordinary Russian people in Russia?
  
  It certainly has a racial component rooted in orientalism you got a better word?
  
  It's anti-slavic racism. That's what it is.
  
  People are racialized regardless of any "logical" reason pertaining to race. Even Black & White is not a binary grounded on real metrics, truly, yes- that it includes things tangtiable visible to the human eyes, is one of the main reasons its easy to maintain, but in the end reality is consensus, and reality is created by the material circumstances of the time.
  
  They usually call Russians bad by virtue of being "tainted" by Asiatic blood, so I'd say racism still fits.

Mr Putin, welcome to the resistance.

I mean, any criticism of Dems has been met the same since I've been on Lemmy since the first r***it exodus.
- I love how they all flocked here to shit on Dessalines and all the MLs that actually developed the software they enjoy free use of.
  
  They always been just following a path trod by the pioneers of a better world.

We should say shit about Trump? Damn it, they didn't updated my code on time.
- Mack back into the central neuronet and update your firmware, Jack

trump bad? russia bad? trump good? russia... good? russia, bad! russia, bad! trump bad! but russia, also bad! trump now good! but russia, always bad!!!
russia bad! trump BAD! but now TRUMP GOOD
- maybe we can use this as a moment to explain our critical support

anything I don't like is a Russian bot
- Or Chinese.
  
  or islamic... i had people seriously believe that Iranians and Azerbaijanis are "Arab"

i read the comments on this post, people still think trump is a russian spy and this is some big brain ploy lmao
Great. Is this the part where putin reveals that he thinks trump is a joke and goads him into a war. Or the part where he shows the world that he has trump by the balls and can do anything he wants to ukraine with impunity.
- The war is happening already this is just a lib doing the parenti quote about anticommunist orthodoxy just preemptively and about RF not USSR.

Lemmytor libs tying to explain "campism" now

Russia Russia Russia

Slava Trump

Not saying it is but there is a very loud subset of commenters on reddit (let's say they're not communists) who were gloating about how Trump will totally make peace with russia in two days and are now acting as if they hated him all along.

Welcome to the Russistance.

Sort of surprised it took this long.
