Re: Half of world refuses to support Western railroading UN resolution.
You twist everything, and onlookers will be confused, for sure.
Onlookers can see that you are the one doing the twisting and you are the one who is clearly confused and delusional.

Onlookers wish that the conversation could be about what's happening NOW and what can be done about it.
Biden looks like he's going to give planes to the Poles so that the Poles can give their aircraft to the Ukrainians as they know how to fly them. That could make a difference.

Re: Who Trusts The News?
So what? Did he invade Ukraine? Did you discuss French toast with him?

You cant stop lying, can you?
By which you mean I keep telling truths you want suppressed.
quote:
I said Russia has border concerns, due to suffering 2 catastrophic invasions from the west, in the 20th century.
Which really doesn’t justify invading their peaceful southern neighbour.
quote:
I said Russia had a major problem with nationalists and fascists, trying to invade them
Right now Ukraine has exactly that problem. But curiously you’re fine with that.
quote:
I drew a very clear distinction between Russia's border problems and the support for oppressed people around the globe
You really didn’t. But then imperialist expansion and oppressing people isn’t really justified by “border problems”, is it?
quote:
It is true, however, that even the border situation defense often results in better lives for the border nations involved.
Invasions are offence, not defence.
quote:
I can never keep up with your disingenuous & endless misrepresentations. You twist everything, and onlookers will be confused, for sure.
Says the guy who tries to pass invasions off as “border defence”.

I’m for unilateral Russian withdrawal. I oppose wars of imperialist aggression. Unlike you.

Re: Who Trusts The News?
Tell me more about this "ethnic Puerto Rican friend" and why that point is relevant. How many "ethnic" Puerto Ricans do you know?
Do you have "black" friend too?

Re: Who Trusts The News?
The fact that I was discussing a person "with family in Sweeden" did not make it relevant to point out that he was not Swedish?
You are a fascist troll.
You did not even know what a "hypothetical asterisk" was, when I talked about a "revamped *fairness doctrine".
You and the fascists here are idiots. Have you ever read a dictionary? You always see hypothetical asterisks when looking at the past history of a word, where no real-world examples exist.
Fascist idiot.
Ignorant pile of swallowed-propaganda.

Re: Who Trusts The News?
So the fact he is "ethnic Puerto Rican" is irrelevant. Does he know he is your "ethnic Puerto Rican" friend? Does he know you call him that?
Amazing how you don't just answer questions. Must take a while to translate back and forth from Russian.

Do you actually know anything about Puerto Rico?
Do people like you, from countries other than US, know anything about Puerto Rico?
