“And you’re all wasting your time because you are not going to change any minds.”
Please no one is trying to change your mind!
FR has created a wonderful forum for the exposure of information to help EACH ONE OF US avoid developing a ‘hive-mind’ or just being ‘spoon-fed’ MSM information to just regurgitate later.
Each freeper has freedom of thought and expression. However, some choose NOT to extend freedom of expression to others that hold a differing point of view becoming merely cyber-bullies. These folks need their mind re-set.
We all should avoid the EVASION of our intellectual responsibility to develop our own opinions. I am not here to impose my point to view, but rather receive and share information.
Thanks for the high comedy :-D
The ones openly cheering for Putin are Muskovites working in teams in a boiler-room near Kazan, so you're righter than you knew.
Nonetheless, the "hive mind" phenomenon thrives among the cyber-bullies and internet shite-posters attacking Ukraine. Spoon-fed by TASS and videos generated by a bevy of convicted criminals.
Ukraine was in on the coup against Trump and may have initiated it. The call that Trump was impeached over was with Zelensky you know.
” Putin is the new Covid. Our government is using him to terrorize Americans so we’ll send billions more to fund a war ...”
At least with the Putin Pandemic, we don’t have sit at home and wear masks, and take poisonous vaccines.
“The ones openly cheering for Putin are Muskovites working in teams in a boiler-room near Kazan, so you’re righter than you knew.”
Nonsense. It is one guy who spams this forum with a YouTube every week.
Bkmk
Sure, Jan. 🤣
Curious since you seem to care about Ukrainian lives lost, do you have any thought on what will happen to all the Ukrainians who fought for their country, let alone average Ukrainian citizens after they become controlled and occupied by Russians?
There is historical examples of what has happened, 10000 executed polish officers is just one.
RT and many Russian citizens and politicians have expressed their goals of genocide on Ukrainian people.
Just curious
Well, maybe only 3 or 4....or 5. The rest are just children who need a spanking.
By Reuters Published 6:44 AM EST, Thu March 9, 2023
Russia’s dominant lender Sberbank reported a nearly 80% plunge in 2022 net profit Thursday as sweeping Western sanctions rattled Russia’s financial sector in what the bank’s CEO called “the most difficult year.”Sberbank (SBRCY) was releasing results under international reporting standards for the first time in a year. Russian authorities ordered banks to limit disclosures and dividend payments last year as Moscow tried to maintain financial stability.
Sberbank’s annual profit came at 270.5 billion rubles ($3.57 billion), down 78.3% from 2021 and around 30 billion rubles ($396 million) lower than what it reported for 2022 under Russian accounting standards.
Sberbank’s resilience in the face of sanctions helped Russia’s banking sector recover from a loss-making first half in 2022.
Cultural genocide at the very least.

"The war in Ukraine is primarily a war for control of people, not land. Russian President Vladimir Putin has invaded Ukraine twice not mainly because he desires Ukraine’s land, but rather because he seeks to control its people. Putin’s project, explicitly articulated in the 2021 article he published justifying the 2022 full-scale invasion, is the destruction of Ukraine’s distinctive political, social, linguistic, and religious identity.[1] Putin seeks to make real his false ideological conviction that Ukrainians are simply confused Russians with an invented identity, language, and history that a small, Western-backed minority is seeking to impose on the majority of inhabitants. He sees language as one of the primary determinants of ethnicity—Russian speakers, he claims, must be Russians regardless of the state they live in.[2] The Russian Federation has claimed special rights to protect Russians in the former Soviet states since the 1990s, although the Kremlin did not act on those claims until Putin became president.[3] Putin’s aim to destroy Ukrainian identity, language, and culture is thus one of the primary objectives of his entire enterprise."
Guilt by association? Then what does it say that you are on the same side as Putin?
One observers that this thread promotes monetized, merchandised videos. In lieu of actual and easily available article which can be read. Among the articles available, but not cited on this thread:
"The Bank of Russia on Wednesday said it had revoked the banking licence of Qiwi Bank for engaging in what it described as high-risk operations, sending its Moscow-listed shares plummeting almost 50% to a record low.In place of actual news, this thread promotes the same YouTube channels as if "news," while really monetized, content. Such as:The central bank, which has taken regulatory action against Qiwi five times in the last year, said Qiwi Bank had systematically violated requirements on anti-money laundering and terrorism financing legislation. "

1) The Enforcer -- a YouTube channel uploaded in the United States, and selling through an Alabama registered set of sites. The video is almost 11 minutes long.Given the aggregate of almost 5 hours of video from the United States and Britain promoted on this particular thread, it is VERY likely none of those "pro" this thread have listened to them all.2) JoeBlogs -- a YouTube channel uploaded from Britain. The video is 21 minutes long.
3) A second post of The Enforcer -- this a 3 hour and 45 minute long live stream from Alabama. As the time stamp 2:25:48 he announced his new OFFICIAL ENFORCER MERCH STORE -- Launching Spring 2024.
4) Warthog Defense -- uploaded from the United States, a 9 minute long video.
5) Jake Broe -- uploaded from the United States, a 26 minute long video.
6) Graphics from Ukraine's Censor.net.
From the perspective of YouTube, one only need listen to the first 30 seconds to trigger AdSense advertising income to the content creators.
The actual news, as above with hotlinks, via easily read press as articles takes little time to read. Contrast with the monetized, fund raising YouTube videos promoted -- these today almost five hours of viewing, if actually viewed.
Money makes the cottage industry of content creation and content promotion go round.
This is about money, at its root.

“We all should avoid the EVASION of our intellectual responsibility to develop our own opinions”
You’re certainly not following your own advice in this case. You continue to push a dead cause which is only bringing unnecessary death and destruction and the enrichment of a few.
