You quite literally said I was making a distinction between the "Rebels" and ISIS which was "convenient." Meanwhile, it did overwhelmingly target Syrian opposition, as identified by research done by qualified individuals.

See here.

That's some Assad apologist denialism on your part right there. "Russia targeted everybody," you say, as if that eliminates the clear overwhelming bias in who it targeted, and who it chose to mostly not attack instead despite claiming otherwise.

Yet even with all the blood and treasure it expended for years propping up Assad, it still lost a key actor right in the middle of the middle east with the fall of Assad's government. Syria's new government seems fairly intent on attracting American investment and rapprochement. What a colossal waste of time and effort on Putin's part. Unless you think that losing billions on a now absent dictator in a strategic location isn't a geopolitical blunder, I'm not sure what else to tell you.

It's good you admit to that obvious point about who destroyed ISIS, but I want to point out that the original poster explicitly said the US aided ISIS. Which I pointed out is absurd, given the vast amount of effort spent by the American government to destroy it. Of course, given ISIS's original group actually predates the Iraq war by a number of years, was already active by the time of the invasion, and was already opposed by the American government, how much America willingly "facilitated it" seems like a something open to debate. I'm more partial to blaming the Ba'athists who joined it as well as the lack of straightforward policy from Bush. I also suspect that the decades-long rule of a dictator with palaces and a police state probably did not help improve the country's stability, especially so after he was removed from power. Your analogy is incorrect, insofar as it erases everything else that was occurring domestically in Iraq before the invasion, as well as Saddam's own actions towards his people, and in his governing of his country, which had persisted for decades before the 2003 invasion.

I'm not sure you've spent much time on r/EnoughCommieSpam, but given that that subreddit has a high number of individuals from post-soviet states, as well as other formerly communist/currently communist states, I question how fascist it really is, given the long-held tradition in those governments and marxist groups to label any dissenting opinion from those populations as a fascistic (given how those eastern European governments collapsed from their own people, one wonders about true those labels were). Moreover, most posts on the main page are screenshots of absurd things being said by illiberal people, such as people literally defending the DPRK's lack of development, or people refusing to condemn the Oct. 7 Massacre, while most countries on the planet an numerous UN bodies have already done so.

Reviewing what comments I do have there also don't seem to show anything particularly extreme, unless you think: calling Nazis and communists pathetic, stating benjamin netanyahu must leave power, pointing out the actions taken by Americans across the country against trump, calling out the whitewashing of Stalin's crimes as deplorable, wondering if certain language break's X's TOS, and commenting about the length of a streamer's ban makes me as a"fascist" in the conventional sense. I suspect they do not.

I further question how stating that

"Jesus Christ Ma'am, this is one of the people in congress who is most opposed to current Israeli policy. Why on earth are you attacking her?"

towards a video where an activist screamed at Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is rage-bait given AOC's electoral history. She actually happens to be in a position to change things and was probably aligned with that activist on most matter, so I question how valid screaming at her was as a tactic to effect change in congress. It's counterproductive, and makes the activist look illogical.

And yeah, I'm a dirty r/neoliberal member. Us neolib fascists, who have article after article bemoaning trump's policy choices in everything. Naught bunch that we are, with our LGBTQ+ Pride flairs, and multinational representatives. Mmh, yes.
