In the General/Chat forum, on a thread titled Col. Douglas Macgregor: With Ukraine In Ruins... Beware The Polish Tail Wagging The American Dog , Apparatchik wrote:

What are the facts that make you post stuff like this?

The facts are that Lumpy MacGregor has been screeching about the Ukrainians having lost the war since Day One of the invasion. He has been consistently wrong in his wild predictions to the point that the only logical conclusion one can draw is that he is a shill for Russian propaganda to persuade the West to give up its support of Ukrainian sovereignty. Lumpy wrote a promising book about retooling the US military back in the 90s and has been trying to get people to pay attention to him ever since. His subordinate in the Battle of 73 Easting, H.R. McMaster went on to earn three stars and a National Security Advisor gig, while Lumpy remained stuck at colonel and did zippo.

How’s that? I repeat - Lumpy needs to STFU. Nobody cares.

You support Biden's proxy war with Russia. Colonel MacGregor has been exposing the truth about it consistently since the war began.

I could quote all the times Ukrainian propagandist Denys Davydov, who is daily posted to FR, has been wrong but it would be a complete waste of 24 hours of my time. For example, the big picture is that Denys has been lying the entire time, falsely portraying the Ukraine as winning when it was actually losing for many many months now. But you have no complaint about him.

You attack a decorated military veteran because he is American and you praise the CIA Operative, Davydov, because he is Ukrainian.

MacGregor is a decorated combat veteran with a PhD in International affairs.

Here's a quote from from his resume:

He was a decorated combat veteran:

Enough trash talking an American veteran telling the truth when Biden and the MSM are lying to protect the Deep State.

Wow - so impressive. As it happens, I have many of the same awards as Lumpy, including the very top ones. Decorations do not lend credibility, especially for the self-promoting types like MacGregor. So don’t pull that crap with me. MacGregor is a has-been and not worth a damn to listen to.

Since you know him so well - Then please, please get him to talk credibly about the Ukrainian war.

HE HAS NO CREDIBILITY !

So why is Macgregor wrong so frequently?

You could indeed - the same level of credibility as MacGregor. They are like opposites - just taking different sides in who they push propaganda for. Yet you defend MacGregor - because he spreads the false narratives you personally want to spread yourself, I guess. He has been saying repeatedly the war is over and Ukraine had completely collapsed for a year and a half. Obviously wrong every time. I guess if that does eventually happen, you will come along and claim he was "right all along."

Really?

Denys gives a pretty good update daily of the State of Play of the war. He reports Russian advances. He reports Ukrainian advances. He gives a fairly good summary.

“ I could quote all the times Ukrainian propagandist Denys Davydov, who is daily posted to FR, has been wrong but it would be a complete waste of 24 hours of my time. For example, the big picture is that Denys has been lying the entire time, falsely portraying the Ukraine as winning when it was actually losing for many many months now. But you have no complaint about him.”

Your assessment here of Denys is wrong. For example, 12 days ago he said. “ Update from Ukraine | Ruzzia Strikes Back | Ukraine need to Act Now | Lancet drones problem”

He is an ordinary Ukrainian citizen cheering for his side in the war, and sharing his knowledge of the situation at that point in time - both good and bad.

Nicely done.
