The wild thing is, I actually agree with Hamid's self-described stance he leads off with here, about places like NCD. I unsubscribed from one of the Ukraine communities because they kept posting videos of dying Russian soldiers, and I completely agree with Hamid's self-expressed horror at the NCD type of video game aficionado "big fan of Russians dying every time" mindset which doesn't seem to have a lot of understanding of what they're really rooting for. I definitely can detect some amount of that in my own postings and there are people who take it a lot further than I do.
Where me and Hamid have issues is that he seems to take that type of reaction to anything less than full throated full agreement with literally 100% of what he has to say about anything. He can't seem to see any kind of discrepancy between "let's literally kill everyone in Israel they all deserve it, even the toddlers" versus "well Ukraine fighting back isn't something to celebrate, you know those Russian soldiers are victims too" and he will viciously attack you as a monstrous piece of shit on a personal level if you disagree with either one of those statements.
And then, of course, he'll combine that with whining extensively if anyone has the temerity to disagree or criticize him on anything. Like yes buddy. I know people who've been crippled by the US empire machine. I'm by all means not in favor of it, especially not now. That still means I can tell you to go fuck yourself and your viewpoint in some area where I think you're wrong. I'm not trying to be unsympathetic but you are extremely unsympathetic to anyone who isn't you, so it's hard to take you seriously when you demand super kind treatment from the people you're simultaneously shitting on and defederating.
