No hate or anything, just curious why old question being back hot topic again in the fandom ("what if SR realized that JSDF is using outdated tech", "what if The Empire get inform how Japan is only an vassal state", "SR react to *X war on earth*" etc)?
I’m curious about how they keep lying to themselves, convincing themselves they’re still the “winners” in everyday life.
It always surprises me how often I come across endless posts like:
And yet, people still believe these claims, even though they’re repeatedly exposed as false flags or fake news. Some of it is just straight‑up hate speech against Russians or Chinese, reducing them to cartoon villains that the West must somehow defeat.
The worst part is the sheer amount of misinformation: people insisting the USSR was the true antagonist of World War II, claiming the Reich was the “last saviour of Europe,” or defending the atrocities of Rhodesia and Apartheid South Africa. Then there are the endless spam posts about “Socialism failed, here are 101 cases why,” and "Communism Imperialism is the worst of the world", and acting like a comblock (or everyone that refuse to become their orbit in this day) invade the world while they have "forced to defend by strike first" victimhood.
It’s strange: liberals and “Westerners” often say things like “China is fed propaganda every hour” or “Russians are constantly brainwashed by Putin.” But at the same time, their own social media is overflowing with propaganda every day about how they are the “true leaders of the earth.” And yet their delusion bubble somehow stays intact.
Do their citizens never question it, never doubt—even at the most common‑sense level? I mean, come on: the Russian army has supposedly been “wiped out” for the 3,903,049th time since 2022…or ironically, just eat it all up like how they criticised the "dictatorship state" people for not rising and fighting for "democracies"?
