    The whole word isn’t, just the third syllable of exercise (I misspoke but you knew what I meant) and the first of seize. If you don’t find it funny that’s fine, but I’m not justifying or making any claims about communists and if you don’t like it you can just scroll past, or you can argue with one of the actual communists on the site.

      No, the “size” in “exercise” is not pronounced the same as “seize” - if you’re pronouncing them the same then you’re mispronouncing one or both. It’s /saɪz/ vs /siːz/, resp. And yeah, I’m going to try to move my account to a non-communist instance, seeing what can only be misguided teens and preteens praising these criminals has got real old. I set this account up 2+ years ago not realising this was a pro-Russian instance.

        I’m not making a scientific paper off of it, the fact that /saɪz/ and /siːz/ when pronounced sound similarish was enough for the joke. The fact that you pulled out the dictionary is proof enough that you’re taking this too seriously, lighen up its just a joke.

          That’s just it, it wasn’t a joke but rather particularly vile propaganda pushed onto a meme thread under the pretext of it being “just a joke”.

            How is this propaganda? My goal isn’t to make anyone do anything but laugh
