How many times do I have to tell you that blanket insults just embarrass you, not me?

You SHOULD be repeating the line about rashist propaganda which makes shit up. It then feeds those lies to the likes of you, and the likes of you then feed it to smaller channels, such as this one.

"Ukrainian did it in Bucha". Each time you open your mouth, you are redefining the meaning of a "low life".

richwicks says

I'm 1/2 Polish. 2 million of us died in the concentration camps in Auschwitz.

And yet you are exactly the type of scum which would be denying existence of Auschwitz back then because, see, "Western media says it exists and they can't be trusted".

Observe richwicks for a week (or a month) and you will clearly see that his "independent" and "contrarian" thoughts and ideas NEVER deviate from the Russian line even 1/1000 of an inch.

Don't know why you bother engaging. Every debate comes down to claiming that all of our information is a lie. How do you debate with that?

This thread was better when it was just videos of Russian tanks getting blown up.

about rashist propaganda

Just such a waste of time to even read what you write.

Why not scream Russian Collusion and Russia hacked our election, or other similar nonsense?

You start with a false premise and just repeat it over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over...

It is you that repeats propaganda, that's why you say the same thing over and over again. I wonder if you're a victim of it though. This is an ancient, and annoying technique, which is why I quit taking your seriously and won't treat you respectfully anymore.

The only thing that is called "Russian lines" are fed to you by the same mass media that claimed that Saddam Hussein had a weapons of mass destruction program and that Qaddafi was taking viagra to rape girls. They are the same people that said Hunter Biden's laptop was "Russian disinformation".

They use this terminology because they recognize that there are plenty of pussies that will shy away from the truth provided they just label it "Russian".

Every single thing that is even a slightly inconvenient reality is labelled by them as "Russian" - the Russian's don't label it that way. Don't you see how ridiculous it is, how easily you're manipulated?



https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2018/10/03/so-did-russian-bots-try-bring-down-star-wars-after-furor-man-who-authored-study-says-not-exactly/

I'm sure "Russian bots" don't control you, but American ones do. How stupid do you have to be to continue to believe the unending bullshit of our government's propaganda? It's been two fucking solid decades of this, and you still can't see it! For a very good long time, I was mystified how the Bolsheviks, Brownshirts, and Chinese Red Army came to power - how could people be so easily manipulated? Well, thanks to people like you, I know precisely how easily they are manipulated. I just have a difficulty time wrapping my head around how easily controlled people are.

But this is all Russian disinformation anyhow, so you can just ignore it, and not have a single bit of introspection about it. I just throw my hands up with you. If you want to believe anything our bullshit idiotic laughable "news" media calls "Russian misinformation" - which just means ANYTHING they want you to dismiss as false, fine. You are unable to think. You are so trivially controlled. If "mainstream news" said 2+2=4 is "Russian misinformation" you'd accept it. I'm really trying to wrap my head around that people like you aren't active liars and are truly this easy to manipulate. It's so hard to imagine that people like you exist. 20 years ago I'd be "well, this asshole is just fucking with me" - but do you really exist? Are people this easily manipulated? I have to consider the possibility.

The reason people think you're trolls is like I can't be as stupid as you pretend(?) to be. The flipside of this is that it's downright insulting to think I'm this fucking stupid or pathetic to accept any bullshit just because some fucking assholes in a $500 haircut and $2,000 suit on the propaganda box says so - but are you? Are you really? It's astonishing. I really really honestly have difficulty believing you actually think you believe what you claim to believe. I can't imagine being as naive as you present yourself to be. Even when I was in college where I was one stupid fucking shit, I wasn't this naive.

I'm sorry, I just can't accept it. I don't think either of you are honest. I think you're either propagandists for free, or propagandists for hire. I just can't believe you're for real. I see too many propaganda techniques (which are effective when a moron repeats them) being repeated by you, I don't see any effort in thought (which propagandists will not engage in, or stupid people won't engage in), it's just repetition and appeal to emotion constantly with you two - even when I call you out on this, you ignore it. I think if you're not paid, you're really fools.

I wonder if you're a victim of it though.

It's simpler. You are a direct logical equivalent of a cocksucker who pimped German Nazi regime back in a day, while living comfortably in US. The scum that parrots Rashist propaganda under the pretense of non-conformism deserves to be exposed and humiliated. I'm just someone who enjoys doing it.

You have again written nothing. You constantly write nothing. You do this repeatedly.

Show ANY information in that childish paragraph. I cannot be insulted by somebody just calling me names and accusing me of holding beliefs I don't. You're not a respectable or intelligent person either, so why would I care about your opinion of me? You never demonstrate I'm wrong, you just express your anger at me, like a child.

You're just like the dupes back in 2017 apoplectic that I denied Trump's "obvious racism" but wouldn't give any examples because they had been brainwashed into their opinion. You're brainwashed in the same manner but what is really telling us you cannot process original information. It's pointless to engage with you. You believe nonsense, even obvious nonsense. Either you pretend to sleep or are braindead.

Denying that Victoria Nuland was picking out the next Ukrainian leader. It's like somebody insisting the Earth is flat. Most people who claim this don't really believe it, those that believe it, don't have the brain capacity to realize they are incorrect.

When I talk to you, it's like talking to this:



You're just opinionated, and ungrounded. I can't tell if you're serious or insane, I really don't care at this point, I've wasted over a month trying to have a rational discussion with you. You can't teach me anything, you can't even be civil.

Nato says it will increase its presence around Sweden and the Baltic sea if Sweden applies to join the alliance, Nato Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg told Swedish broadcaster SVT.

The secretary general highlighted the importance of protecting the country's borders while its Nato application is approved, which could take up to a year.

"From the potential moment Sweden is applying, and Nato says that they want Sweden to join, there is a very strong obligation from Nato to be able to guarantee Sweden's security," Stoltenberg told SVT.

Sweden and neighbouring Finland are expected to make a decision on whether they are applying to join Nato this month, as both countries have considered joining the alliance following the invasion of Ukraine.

Russian President Vladimir Putin is warning Finland and Sweden about joining NATO, saying an expansion in membership could bring a heightened response from his own Russia-led military alliance.

On Monday, Putin spoke alongside leaders from Russia's allies in Belarus, Armenia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan at a Collective Security Treaty Organization summit in Moscow.

Wait a second! All this time Russia was crying how she's alone against a bunch of NATO countries the fuckers were in their own military bloc? How come it's not kosher to expand NATO w/o asking Russia first but it's completely ok to expand CSTO w/o asking anyone?

PS. CSTO was established in 1992, so it can be argued that NATO expansion which started 7 years later was in response to Russia forming that agressive military bloc.

Putin should not be surprised by this - his own actions triggered the response. Sweden and Finland are free to join whomever they want without any treaties in place that say otherwise. This may be a good time to shift Nato financing for European causes onto Europe and stop sending money overseas.

President Vladimir Putin said on Monday that there was no threat to Russia if Sweden and Finland joined NATO but cautioned that Moscow would respond if the U.S.-led alliance bolstered military infrastructure in the new Nordic members.
...
"As to enlargement, Russia has no problem with these states - none. And so in this sense there is no immediate threat to Russia from an expansion (of NATO) to include these countries," Putin told the leaders of a Russian-dominated military alliance of former Soviet states.

"No immediate threat to Russia", nothing to see here, move along.

I feel silly about all the energy I wasted explaining that "NATO expansion" angle was just an excuse for starting the war in Ukraine. I should've just waited for Putin to confirm that.

That's not true, the situation in the Ukraine is vastly different, there hasn't been a color revolution and overthrow of a legitimate government by us meddling, and there are no separatist regions in Sweden or Finland. This is actually a decent reaction from Putin after initial harsher words. Whether it comes from a place of weakness or not I don't care neither should anybody else. Any sort of deescalation is a good thing here. Now let's head to the table of diplomacy to resolve the Ukraine conflict.

mell says

the situation in the Ukraine is vastly different

Ukraine is also poorer and more corrupt. So what? How does it make it different in the narrow context of the NATO angle? It doesn't. Another country with large shared boarder and relatively close to major cities in Russia. The distance between Finland and St. Petersburg is about 200 miles. If Russia worries about NATO expansion (as they claimed they did), now is a good time to start shitting bricks.

There is a vast difference in size. Finland has about 6 million people, Ukraine has about 45 million people.

Russia has spoken against NATO troop/equipment expansion near its border with Finland.

After seeing what the Western propaganda did to the citizens of the Baltic States (Vehemently anti-Russian even though Russia is vastly different from the Soviet Union), maybe they didn't wanna see the Ukrainians under the sway of mass Western propaganda. Before the invasion the typical Ukrainian didn't really care one way or the other about siding with the EU or Russia.

The invasion really pushed the Ukrainians towards hating the Russians...so that didn't quite work out the way Russia wanted.

Are you fucking for real? Read your own fucking links:

The CSTO grew out of the framework of the Commonwealth of Independent States, and first began as the CIS Collective Security Treaty (CST) which was signed on 15 May 1992, by Armenia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russian Federation, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, in the city of Tashkent. Azerbaijan signed the treaty on 24 September 1993, Georgia on 9 December and Belarus on 31 December.

From 0 countries in 1991 to 6 countries in 1992 to 9 countries in 1993. Explosive growth by any measure.

So Russia has its own aggressive military block, therefore their crying about other countries being in their own defensive military blocks is bullshit. What's good for goose good for gander.

And just like that pedo Putin sees no threat from NATO expansion anymore:

LONDON, May 16 (Reuters) - President Vladimir Putin said on Monday that there was no threat to Russia if Sweden and Finland joined NATO...
...
"As to enlargement, Russia has no problem with these states - none. And so in this sense there is no immediate threat to Russia from an expansion (of NATO) to include these countries," Putin told the leaders of a Russian-dominated military alliance of former Soviet states.

Map-shmap: what the fuck a map has to do with anything? The list of countries forming the military alliance Russia belongs to is there in the Wiki you listed. You need help finding them on the map now?

Soooo: if it's not a problem fir Putin anymore if NATO expands by accepting Sweden and Finland doesn't it mean by extension that it's not a problem anymore that any other country joins NATO?

Seems like the objection against NATO expansion have been lifted.

Any NATO member that goes 2 years without spending 2% on GDP should be suspended.

Timeline:

1991: No land border between NATO and military blocks including Rsssia; mere 60 miles of land border between NATO and Russia (with Norway), sea border between NATO and Russia (with US and Turkey).

1992: A Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) military block including Armenia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russian Federation, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan created. This creates a land border between NATO and military block with Russia as a member (Armenia has a land border with Turkey and Russia has a border with Norway). Pretty obvious who made the first move closer to the borders of the other block.

1993: Three more countries - Azerbaijan, Georgia and Belarus - are brought into the CST thus extending land border between NATO and Russian-led CST: (Georgia has a land border with Turkey) as well as advancing a military block to the land borders of non-aligned (at that moment) countries: Poland, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Finland and, yes, Ukraine, as well as advancing to the sea borders of non-aligned Romania and Bulgaria. Pretty obvious who made the second move close to the borders of the other block and various non-aligned countries.

NATO has expanded further only 6 years later - in 1999. So whatever pedo Vlad is smoking he should lay down the pipe and go into detox, because it was Russia-led military block which expanded and moved closer to the NATO borders first, not the other way around.

RWSGFY says

Map-shmap: what the fuck a map has to do with anything?

Look at the area that Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan - also note that Azerbaijan, Georgia, Uzbekistan were able to withdraw without a problem - well until Georgia attacked S. Ossetia.

The only notable land mass is Kazakhstan.
