"Some of you may be willing to die, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make" but unironically

Hi Hexbear Dunkers,
Thank you for calling me out on the misinformed, small-minded, and frankly awful comments I had made about the Ukrainian conflict. I am significantly out of my element talking politics, especially eastern european politics.
I appreciate everyone who responded to me, even if they were just pointing out how ridiculous or foolish I am.
I'm going to engage in some self reflection and figure out my motives for making uneducated comments on the internet.
This is the most surprising thing I've read all week.
Just remember LiberalSocialist said the same thing
I think they did actually learn some things though.

An inflammatory user that posted a bad take, apologized, then kept posting bad takes and being inflammatory - but now other users jumped to their defense, due to them apologising once. They would often copy-paste the same response to several users that made the mistake of taking the time to answer them in good faith. Due to this one of such responses became a meme "power dynamics".
They were around for a few months and created a ton of strugglesessionsPermanently Deleted
"AOC is doing what the unions wanted her to do" was way funnier anyway
"Which unions, LiberalSocalist?"
Rank and file!
Wow, I'm taken aback at a person actually coming onto the internet with an open mind. Good on you stranger, you're kinda my hero.
It's a pretty low bar so please save your admiration for someone who deserves it. Thanks for the encouraging words though.
It's a low bar, but you're still the first non-hexbear user I've seen do it since federation
Came here to dunk amd this is the first thing i saw. We love to see this. Thank you for your honesty and I hope your self-reflection goes well.
Most of us are reformed libs who might have said something similiar to you had we not done some reevaluating of our recieved ideologies ar some point.
If you should want info on left wing perspectives or ideologies, the fine comrades on hexbear are as eager to help as we can be ruthless toward reactionary assertions.
Thanks for the welcome. I'm actually interested in media sources I should check out, specifically around the russia-ukraine conflict. History, analysis, commentary, etc. Anything I find from Google or YouTube (also Google 🤔) is couched in the same exact narrative.
Early on one of our members was keeping an update thread going with sources, that was very helpful, but at certain point it was dropped as the conflict kept going on. Id post this question in the askchapo community and I'm sure you'll be innundated with sources lol, we've got some well informed comrades on there
