The use of depleted uranium munitions has been fiercely debated, with opponents like the International Coalition to Ban Uranium Weapons saying there are dangerous health risks from ingesting or inhaling depleted uranium dust, including cancers and birth defects.

OP is known tankie just fyi. Doesn't justify US or Ukrainian actions but make sure you understand that the reason for posting this isn't out of any actual concern for human beings. They're also peddling covid conspiracies

peddling covid conspiracies

like what?

[–] ElChapoDeChapo@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago

Probably the conspiracy that the virus is still a pandemic and people are still dying and we should all wear masks, you know the truth

Yeah that's a silly article. Strange that a supposed "tankie" would post something that pushes the Chinese lab leak conspiracy though, especially from an outlet run by an NYT liberal like Bari Weiss.

tankies don't have coherent ideologies, or they wouldn't be tankies

So let me get this straight, according to you:

The people that don't support either side of the war and want to end it as fast as possible through peace talks are evil tankies.

And the bloodthirsty monsters that want to prolong a pointless war, arm Azov Nazis and kill as many people as possible with illegal inhumane weapons that scar generations are freedom-loving liberals.

Seems like the tankies are the more reasonable ones in this situation.

That's an interesting point, but have you considered Harry Potter?

So you neither support the rapist nor the victim. How enlightened centrist of you.

Lmao what a misogynistic pig to compare sexual assault to war.

[–] barsoap@lemm.ee 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What an imperialistic swine to not do it.

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Damn, imagine hating women to own the Russians.

[–] barsoap@lemm.ee 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Imagine comparing condoning self-defence to hating victims.

[–] barsoap@lemm.ee 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Imagine thinking that retort makes sense.

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Damn, imagine hating women to own the Russians then whining when you get called out for being a misogynistic pig

[–] barsoap@lemm.ee 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm not sure that made sense even in your mind.

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago

Mald harder, pig.

The people that don't support either side of the war

They (and you) are clearly supporting Russia.

If we're supporting capitalist Russia the same way NATO tools are supporting Nazi Ukraine then where are our comments saying we should send money and weapons to Russia to defeat the Ukrainian 'orcs', then? Show me where these pro-Russia comments are, I'll wait.

Get real, none of us have said anything in support of modern capitalist Russia. We're communists ffs, would we really support the thing that killed the Soviet Union? Use your head.

Next, you'll tell me that people against the war on terror in the Middle East were on the side of the Taliban.

They posted a Reuters article

Is that an evil tankie propaganda website now?

[–] SnAgCu@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago

Ah but they posted the Reuters article maliciously. In a scheming, tankie sort of way.
