Yep, there is no reason to believe that a corrupt totalitarian dictatorship would stage such a blatant propaganda stunt, just no reason whatsoever. /sarc

You mean like we did claiming that Iraqi soldiers were seen going into a hospital in Kuwait City with guns and going into the room where 15 babies were in incubators. That they took the babies out of the incubators, took the incubators and left the babies on the cold floor to die. They told this tale to justify our going into Kuwait to remove the Iraqis from Kuwait. This was after telling Iraq that we were not concerned about their border dispute. Basically giving them a green light to invade Kuwait.

But my point really was that having to use the word purported (To have or present the often false appearance of being or intending; claim or profess.) indicates to me that they aren't sure if the story of giving the wives of Russians soldiers killed in action fur coats is even true. Meaning they reported that story initially not knowing if it was true or not. Now they are reporting that they have asked for the fur coats back. Both parts of the story sound fishy. Which means if the stories aren't true, then they are propaganda. But you automatically jump to the conclusion that it was Russian propaganda. I don't even have to ask, because I already know that you believed that the Russians blew up Nord Stream 2, even though it would make no sense for them to do so, when all they had to do was shut the valve and stop the flow.

Like me, you have no clue what is true, what is false, or who even started story part 1 or its follow up part 2.

As you can see from my first paragraph, that we are not above making up false stories ourselves. In addition, I see a distinct move towards totalitarianism happening here in our country. Even immigrants who fled totalitarian regimes to come to America to escape it, say they see it too. In fact, this move towards totalitarianism is happening in all of what were once known as free "Democratic" nations who embrace western civilization norms. Now they all embrace the same kind of things that the CCP exacts upon their citizens.

You can be as snarky as you want, but remember when the world breaks out into WWIII, you helped bring that about. Had we worked out where Ukraine agreed to keep the Nazis from attacking the Russian speaking Ukrainians, this whole mess could have been prevented. The Ukrainian people wouldn't have been displaced, their homes wouldn't have been destroyed, their young men wouldn't have been decimated, and the nation of Ukraine would have remained intact.

You really need to start using that gray matter between your ears, because is you keep ignoring it, like every other part of the human body, it will atrophy if not used. Hopefully it's not too late.
