In this case, they contend Ukraine is pure as the driven snow and Russia is doing the devil's bidding here on earth. Anyone who disputes the black/white characterization is lambasted with vitriol.

Notice, though, that after whining about how big of a meanie I am, you didn't answer my repeated challenge. You can't just ridicule us as treating Russia unfairly if you don't even back it up.

Maybe the problem here isn't our conduct, but, rather, our opinions you simply dislike.

So, if you don't want to be roasted alive by my incoming vitriol, why not tell us why we should believe Russia isn't doing the bidding of the devil as they try to subjugate a free country?

I did not state that you were treating Russia unfairly.

In fact I have deliberately avoided this fight about who is right/wrong concerning Ukraine and Russia.

I don't care about that.

But your statement about me is a lie:"You can't just ridicule us as treating Russia unfairly if you don't even back it up."

The only issue I have is your name calling. It demeans the site.

For the record, I am on the anti-Russian side of the fence.

But people like you don't deserve the right to advocate for those positions here.
