    Trying to frame supporting the right of Ukraine to defend themselves against an illiegal invasion, genocide, torture, rape and all manner of other war crimes as “being pro-war” needs a very special kind of brain damage…

      Does being pro-Ukraine not elicit an agenda? Also, what’s with the insult. I didn’t insult you.

        Pro-Ukraine? Sure, that’s probably includes one agenda or another. But that’s not what you said there.

        As for the insult: Sorry, for that. You instantly understood that you framed self-defense as being pro-war, so I think I need to retract that suggestion of brain damage.

        Instead you seem to know perfectly well what you’re saying so: Crawl back to you Russian (or Russian-paid) cave, troll. (Also: Not sorry for that, as it isn’t even an insult but just stating a fact…)

          I’ve been an American a very long time. Russia doesn’t have to pay me to see that all sides use propaganda. Also, still using insults isn’t going to help someone see your point of view.

              You can call me whatever you want. As long as it’s understood that geopolitics requires all sides to use propaganda. I’m not here to make friends. I’m here to learn. I’m actually a pretty forgiving guy. I just can’t tolerate bull 💩.
