They seem to be thinking that this is just a phase, and once Putin is gone, everyone who voted for him or his party is going to start voting for communists and thus Soviet Union will be soon restored.
Also in another thread some person was being feeling deep cognitive dissonance (to the point of crying alone and feeling nobody understands them) when their history professor gently gave them facts about the atrocities Soviet Union committed.
I cannot be mad at these people, but I am very worried how their bubble is feeding into their delusions. That cannot be healthy. I’m willing to bet that there’s a shooter or two brewing in those circles.
No, that is unacceptable discourse! You may disagree strongly with them, but by dehumanizing them with such statements you prove yourself no better than them. They are not animals or things, they are people with very different views, with emphasis on people.
yes but we need to ackowledge them as people. Because no matter how much their views disgust us they’re still built of the same flesh and blood as we are, they are a warning, to you and people around you, to not fall into the same ideological trap as they did. If you just consider them “not human” you put yourself at risk of following their steps.
All the cruel people in history we call monsters were humans. It’s an unnerving thought to share any likness with them, but it’s important we remember that nobody is born evil

Some of the people online are chatbots, that’s the reality we currently live in.
You know we are real communists because we can live rent free in your minds

The irony of an American trying to educate someone else on their ignorance, while simultaneously expressing their deepest ignorance themselves.
