Given the current jingoist ambiance, “Russian propaganda” is probably merely being pacifist.
The left wing in my country is saying we’ve been told for the last 2 decades that we have no money for hospitals and now they want us to buy fighter planes
Oh no, these guys are really old fashioned Marxist-Leninists and at some point they even admitted to being Stalinists.
They’re not the thinking kind of Lefties who might just be against war out of principle, they’re just heavily indoctrinated types in a very specific prepackaged ideology that claims to be Leftwing - basically they’re "Left"wing MAGAs.
The tankie stereotype is in fact real - rare, but real.
