He rarely throws insults and is always ready to cite sources (albeit biased ones). He seems to want to argue in good faith.
The problem is he’s wrong about many things, but thinks he’s correct all the time and is quite smug about it as well. Now add in this and he’s no different from his friends.
Cowbee’s public facing account has incredible sea-lioning technique. Constantly asking for evidence and backpedaling to his own sources (far beyond merely biased) and picking apart some minor phrasing to avoid facing a solid argument. You can link official CCP/USSR/RT/etc sources refuting his claims and he’ll keep trundling along, unperturbed.
If you ever get a tankie to back into “well you just don’t understand [dialectics/theory]” you can take that as waving a white flag. There’s no such thing as an honest exchange of ideas with any of them.
Thought cowbee was at least somewhat rational. Seems he’s just like the rest of his comrades
I genuinely have no clue how you could have come to that conclusion.

He throws insults regularly in the matrix channels and on hexbear. He uses his lemmy.ml account as optics
