I think Russia has lost.

I could give a shit who wins or loses. But I don't want America involved in it. They have got you rooting for a side by feeding you propaganda. It's not a far stretch from supporter to supporting the war to wanting our country to join the war. All of this is conditioning you to hate Russia and want war. Don't fall for it!

There is something wrong with that entire piece.

I’ll get to it later.

One bright morning in the middle of the night,
a Russian and a Ukranian boy got into a fight.
Back to back they faced each other,
drew their swords and shot each other.
A deaf policeman heard the noise,
and came and killed the two dead boys.
If you don't believe this to be true,
ask the blind man, he saw it too.

RIP KAL 007 and Congressman Larry McDonald.

Daily Propaganda

[LukeL]

I always wondered how people would accept the antichrist and take the mark of the beast even though they had been warned time and time again. With how easily 50% of the people here believe the media which has been lying to them for 50+ years I know see how easy it will be.

“war is costing Putin $20 billion a day” -— That figure seems suspect.

[unclebankster]

We are getting a one-sided media on the Russian Ukraine War, so I’m maintaining my skeptical approach to all the talking & speculating.

Do I think everything is a lie or made up propaganda?

No I do not, but some of it is.

[DIRTYSECRET]

I’m thinking of that stalled convoy. 40 miles long. Keep it. Don’t allow for a retreat. Make them leave their weapons.

There is no negotiated withdrawal for Putin. He’d have to die first. It would be proper.

[unclebankster]

“war is costing Putin $20 billion a day” -— That figure seems suspect.”

It seems like a high number since Russia is suppose be an economic basket case.

“All of this is conditioning you to hate Russia”

So showing imagery of war and destruction is “conditioning”. The alternative is to not show any such imagery or report on the war so we can continue to feel warm and fuzzy about Russia and its leader.

[roving]

Why are you so desperate to convince us its all a lie? Russia should have already taken these cites yet haven’t.

[roving]

I don’t want America involved, but that isn’t going to stop me for rooting for Ukraine.

FDR said it best in September 1939:

“This Nation will remain a neutral nation, but I cannot ask that every American remain neutral in thought as well. Even a neutral has a right to take account of facts. Even a neutral cannot be asked to close his mind or his conscience.”

“war is costing Putin $20 billion a day” -— That figure seems suspect.

Well, is the figure too high, in your estimation, or too low? And what would you view as a more-realistic figure? $15 billion? $25 billion?

Come on, don't be coy! Spit it out!

I agree with you. So many people here are so gullible to believe this kind of garbage.

The other thing is that if Russia was willing to use all of their resources to take out Ukraine then they could do it in minutes. The worldwide consequences would be horrific for them, but they could do it.

[Revel]

All this happened and they have no documentation other than some video game footage. I mean 11,000 people! There should be hundreds of documenting photos/videos.

[Bullish]

We can’t believe a damn word coming out of any of our media. We’d be fools if we thought we could.

[Williams]

Since you can’t believe anything then how can you comment on it, unless you’re in Ukraine watching it happen.
