“Sometimes people don’t want to hear the truth because they don’t want their illusions to be destroyed.”

So now you are trying to get sympathy?   Just because you won't accept the truth about your lost cause in the Ukraine, doesn't mean you'll get any sympathy from me.

Sadly, nobody here expects sympathy from you, FRiend.
We do still hold out the perhaps forlorn hope of even occasionally seeing something resembling sanity from you.

But so far, you've only disappointed.

Interestingly, this quote applies so well to the anti-Ukraine Freepers.

However, I merely pointed out the inaccuracy of this quote being attributed to Nietzsche. :)
