I’m not sure I’ve seen any evidence of it existing though, is it just a Boogeyman, or so something that happened a while back? An in joke of some sort?

    Russia didn’t invade but if it did, Ukraine deserved it.

    America been doing this for decades!

      I guess tankies are now making accounts in other instances so that they don’t get blocked.

        I’m pretty sure they’re being sarcastic, “(terrible thing) didn’t happen but happen but if it did (whatever group) deserved it” is a joke I see a lot about genocide deniers and their (lack of) logic

          Normally I’d agree with you, but I’ve read enough posts from Lemmy tankies that I cannot be sure anymore.

      What kind of dialectical brainrot is this? America doing something terrible doesn’t mean Ukraine deserves to suffer the same from russia. Weirdo

          I honestly can’t tell if that post is meant to be sarcasm.

          Because I’ve seen similar posts and that the poster really believed in it. And that’s part of what’s plaguing lemmy. Unironic whataboutism.

            BTW dude your username is annoying. You comment a lot and every time I see it I get hungry

            Edit: it’s weird and interesting how many downvotes this comment is getting for a simple in-joke

      I feel like the Narcissist’s prayer ends too quickly. What if someone, perhaps Ukraine, didn’t deserve it? Isn’t there an excuse for that? Like “It’s not my fault you looked like you had a Nazi problem” but more generic? Hey, perhaps one could add “It’s not my fault” at the end to allow for recursion.

        ..No. That’s a good place to end it. “You deserved it” is the only line that’s honest about what they believe. They just go through the rest first because it’s an easier sell.
