You post nothing but Ukrainian propaganda that comes straight from Kiev. It’s often factually wrong or based on rumors and innuendo and usually doesn’t pan out. I prefer to look at reports from groups on both sides, regardless of their position on the spectrum. Then I try to determine the veracity of what they’re saying based on their history in addition to discounting the hyperbole and editorial comments. The truth is always somewhere in the middle.
You disapprove of my posts in support of Ukraine. OK I can appreciate your thoughts. My husband asks me when I share some replies why would I go to Free Republic for abuse.
I explained 3 Reasons:
1- I have made friends over the years. [I’m addicted!]
2- I am exposed to multitude of sources.
3- I don’t believe some comments are really intentionally hurtful. Just some folks way of being witty.
4- I love receiving freeper mail on either &/or sometimes BOTH sides of the same issue. LOL
I also appreciate the dialogue of mutual respect from mail because it comes from individuals with a genuine interest to sharing insight & perspective. And, IMO that is a good thing! But then again, I have never received unkind or demeaning freeper mail.
Today for example, I received some feedback from both Russia as well as Ukraine positions that didn’t care for my article: “Putins goals and philosophy: Timothy Snyder: If Ukrainians hadn’t fought back, the world would’ve been a much darker place”
