“You know this, yet you and your com-padres are on every thread here trying to push the United States into an insane war. It makes me wonder who is paying you and the other supposedly pro-Ukrainian thugs populating these threads. I know it isn’t MAGA. I don’t care what dates are in your FR profiles, you impress me as activated bot accounts that are here for malicious reasons, spreading propaganda of the most sordid and evil sort.”

It’s like thought and argument without reason, a knee jerk, conditioned response learned in a world that no longer exists. It seems like a defense mechanism of sorts, a resort to the familiar, an unwillingness to face the realities at hand.
I think what we are seeing in a microcosm here on FR is what is being discussed in rogue thought circles as mass formation psychosis.
we have a relatively small population of posters, most of us have been around decades, yet between this and the entire covid/vaccine business, viewpoints have split to almost diametrically opposed positions and most of these threads devolve into name-calling. An ignore feature has never been more sorely needed, not even in the height of the HG drama years.
I don’t see how an ‘honest’ poll could be done, but I would be interested in seeing the correlation (if any) between vaccine ‘belief/trust’ and posture on this war.
