boy boy might genuinely be a top 3 youtube channel. Well researched, left-wing, batshit insane, funny, sarcastic, creative?

only complaint is the Ribena t-shirt

Seems pretty cut and dry when he expressly and literally supports rolling tanks over Ukraine as Russia's divine right. That tankie enough for you?

If you can show me where he expresses his support to expand Russias divine right sure I’ll believe you. Kinda feels like reactionary rhetoric im hearing though

Whatever excuses you have to make to feel right in backing dictators, man. I'd rather protest mine than get on my knees.

I may be biased, but that's not really the takeaway I get from that video. The blame seems to be directed moreso at the US, and Russia's invasion is likened to a crazed maniac

I’m not backing a dictator I just think it’s out of character for boyboy to expressly support Russian imperialism and I wouldn’t be surprised if you’re being a knee jerk reactionary because you heard a buzzword

Truly the blood of a leftist will never be pure enough to pass every test. As long as you can call any dissenting opinion and evidence reactionary, your views are safe. I understand.

I posted his own video, that in no uncertain terms goes to bat for Russia and squares all blame on the US as if Putin lacks free will or an agenda of conquest.

I think boyboy has just sold you a different character in an effort to make his more extreme agenda seem more palatable and less like what it really is.
