Wondering about this. Like "putin schill" gets thrown around so lightly, and what's being said is "you're not even wrong, you're just a brainwashed puppet making puppet noises at the behest of your sinister masters".

Like the libs don't even see it as an argument, it's just evil magic orc speech or something. Whatever we're saying is wrong because putin is making us say it, somehow

Thinking about how it ties in to ignorance or denial of various atrocities. Like " hey, Joe did this horrible thing" and getting back "no he didn't, and that didn't happen, and if it did you only think it's bad because putin mind controlled you" kind of thing.

I was radicalized by liberal media lol. Growing up I watched shit like CNN, Vice, NBC, BBC, Guardian, etc. and saw a bunch of news about Nazis in Ukraine (and Russia, but Russia was the bad guy of the west so I wasn’t surprised). The only RT videos I watched were of riots without caring about the context - I just wanted to see cops get beaten.

I’m not a Yakubian devil so I don’t have Hitler genes that activate later in life, so when I see a bunch of white people putting in so much effort to defend guys in SS uniforms and death skull patches and swastika armbands, I assume you’re a Nazi and delusional if you demand I support them alongside you.
