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
