How do you know they're common folks?

Because I personally know them? I thought I made it abundantly clear that I know folks in that part of the world.

P.S. I think I answered a wrong question. To your question: because it's consistent with shoots that I saw from the folks that I personally know.

I can help you setup a server and allow you to do it yourself.

Thanks. I'm somewhat hi-tech savvy. Learn to take "no" for an answer.

We all have our abilities.

If you're comfy around Linux, you can use ffmpeg to strip metadata for GPS, or really, it's an excellent idea to do what HeadSet suggested, and do a live screen capture to remove all metadata.

Again, what is the point of recording government fuckery, if you keep it to yourself? Fuck the government. When those assholes commit crimes, it's our DUTY to expose them. Go ahead and strip the metadata, and HeadSet has a very good idea of doing a life screen capture. You can upload it to my server, and I will post it to, mmm, bitchute through tor.

Tor is available under the Brave web browser. You can use that to upload to my server, a global adversary (i.e. government) could detect you accessed my machine, but I can't.

What a bunch of cunts. That fucking piece of shit lying psychopathic whore helped start a war. She was coached by Hill and Knowlton, and was the daughter of the Kuwaiti ambassador. There had to be at least ONE person in our congress that knew who she was, and our fucking traitorous scum intelligence agencies CERTAINLY knew who she was.

I know what I'm up against. I'm fully aware.

April Glaspie, the US ambassador to Iraq ENCOURAGED that war. She initially denied this, Hussein produced audio tape and transcripts which our media INVARIABLY claimed were forgeries, she resigned in the end, never to be heard from again. Back when lying scumbags had shame. I miss those days. I remember recordings during the MH17 incident when INCOMPETENT assholes produced an audio recording which was OBVIOUSLY fraudulent - they actually went from stereo recording to mono. They didn't even bother to fix the splicing to make it believable, you could see the splice visually in audacity. So fucking stupid, they'll get better I imagine.

I don't automatically believe anybody. The purpose of public posting is to ask for many people to review. I am fully aware I can be tricked, and I have been tricked, and I will be tricked and fooled in the future. You can fool some of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all the people all of the time. I am not so stupid as to think I can catch every lie or trick - I know I can't, but I know a 1000 people usually can, and 10,000 people almost always can, and 1,000,000 certainly will.

Kiev at present being bombed. No air raid sirens.

Beginning from the post Cold War ,John Hopkins Professor examine the problems between east and west and brings us to today’s stalemate “ not one inch “ Not One Inch: America, Russia, and the Making of Post-Cold War Stalemate https://www.amazon.com/dp/030025993X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_i_CJB842E8ZNKFV5PGEARN?source=patrick.net
It more or less comes down to two sets of pledges. The first was in early 1990, when the West was still trying to get the USSR to agree to German reunification. It was West German foreign minister, Hans-Dietrich Genscher, who gave a number of speeches assuring the Soviets that there will be no NATO troops on East Germany should reunification be allowed. AS he put it in one address, “An extension of NATO’s territory to the east, that is, nearer to the borders of the Soviet Union, will not happen.” The problem was that his boss, Chancellor Helmut Kohl, completely disagreed with this policy and believed that the West should lock in as many gains as it could before the political climate shifted.

By Feb 1990, James Baker was making similar pledges. It was Baker’s pledge that formed the basis for Russian complaints about broken promises to this day. As Baker told Gorbachev during a trip to Moscow, “Would you prefer to see a unified Germany outside of NATO, independent and with no U.S. forces, or would you prefer a unified Germany to be tied to NATO, with assurances that NATO’s jurisdiction would not shift one inch eastward from its present position?” As was the case with Genschler and Kohl, Baker’s boss, George H. W. Bush, didn’t actually agree with this policy. But that statement by Baker was reportedly treated by Soviet leaders as essentially a US pledge not to expand NATO as long as German reunification was allowed. As Sarotte write, “leaders in Moscow would point to this exchange as an agreement barring NATO from expanding beyond its eastern Cold War border. Baker and his aides and supporters, in contrast, would point to the hypothetical phrasing and lack of any written agreement afterward as a sign that the secretary had only been test-driving one potential option of many.”

The second major area of the Russian complaints are centered around the actual 1997 agreement signed by Boris Yeltsin that more or less gives Russia’s blessing on the expansion of NATO. The episode starts off with a night in Warsaw, when Polish President Lech Walesa managed to persuade Yeltsin to issue a joint statement that the prospect of Poland joining NATO was “not contrary to the interest of any state, also including Russia.” It’s the kind of story that’s the perfect example of how pliable Yeltsin truly was at this point in his presidency. Yeltsin faced immediate domestic backlash on the statement and tried to backtrack by referring back to the 1990 Agreement on German Reunification, arguing that the language in that agreement precluded the expansion of NATO eastward. Therefore, under this interpretation of the agreement, Yeltsin couldn’t endorse the idea of a NATO expansion because the West already agreed that could never happen.

Of course, as we’ll see, the Clinton administration had already explored the legal implications of that 1990 German reunification agreement and concluded that there were no such restrictions. The Germany government agreed with this assessment, although the German Foreign Ministry did acknowledge that Russian claims contained a “political and psychological substance we had to take seriously.” In the end, the US pursued the approach of just trying to bribe Russia with money. Yeltsin ended up signing an agreement that condoned NATO’s expansion later that year. Clinton reportedly couldn’t believe how one-sided the deal was in the end.

The overall picture that emerges is one where, technically speaking, the expansion of NATO may have been legal based on the agreements made. But from an ethical standpoint, these were agreements made in bad faith at a time when Russia was effectively forced to negotiate under a state of national duress:

Julian Assange naively ruined his life expecting people to do something about mafia bullshit though. Be careful, although I doubt the Russians have much of a reach. Be certain to remove the metadata. If they are in a particular apartment or home, be aware of that too. Can't be too careful with the FUCKING SCUM that runs our governments or infests our intelligence agencies.

mostly reader says

Do we have a deal or not? Yes or no?

Well, I'm not going to be silenced, you said you wanted me to "shut up" - I can't do that. That's very encompassing.

And I'm not going to stop talking about any topic. That demand is ridiculous. Point out when I'm incorrect, but provide reasoning and evidence I am wrong, so I can change my mind. I will, if I have to conclude I'm wrong, and I've had to do that MANY times. If you give me input that contradicts the gaps (and there are many) in my knowledge, of course I will change my viewpoint. I might do it kicking and screaming, but I will, in time. It's not always easy to have a radical shift in a viewpoint, but this one - I don't think it will be difficult.

I'm not going to give you free reign. You may be more knowledgeable about this subject than I am, I understand that, but that doesn't mean I think you're being truthful about it. I know how propaganda works, the best of it, only omits information and gives you a one sided view. It seems entirely reasonable because there is no misinformation involved so there are no contradictions. For example some: small village in Israel is attacked - how horrible, until you find out Israel was attacking a tent settlement for 3 months with weaponry, dumping sewage on their farmland, and cutting down olive trees and the people doing it all originated from that villiage.

Why are you placing conditions on exposing the atrocities of the Russian government? That's a reasonable question to ask, I think.

I've crippled piece of shit companies by being a whistleblower, it's a lot harder to do that with a criminal syndicate like a government though. People don't seem to care about duplicity or criminality in the government, and people in the government sure as fuck don't. People fear the government. They're pussies.

You want to expose the Russian government? Go ahead, I'll help you. But why are you demanding my silence and subservience? NO government is good. I don't care if the Russian government is evil, I'm more worried my government is evil. I have to deal with that evil.

richwicks says

If there are humanitarian atrocities being done by a government, it's your duty to expose them.

Pushing the dangerous vax is a human atrocity that our government and specifically Biden did. It’s immoral to require people to take a product that may kill them or intensely injure them in a life altering way. And if the government KNOWS that these adverse reactions are quite common and actively HIDES that data to “reduce vaccine hesitancy,” that’s a moral crime on a whole new level of psychopathy. Our government did all of that. As far as I’m concerned, an invasion of a semi-hostile neighbor state (Putin) is several orders of magnitude less evil than vaxxing your own citizens to death.

Don't you worry about "exposing Russian government". It's been done and continues to be done. While some numbskulls will continue to state that this is computer graphics, well, they'd do the same regarding the materials that I have. There is nothing for me to gain there.

The propaganda is so fucking laughable, and desperate, and pathetically stupid that anything my government or "news" media claims about Putin is reasonable to reject without even investigating the claim.

We will see in time what happens to Ukraine. If it's like Syria, well, Putin is as much of a monster that our intelligence agencies are - because they are the ones that run our executive branch. Our presidents are just meat puppets of them.

It takes time to construct CGI, reality can be recorded instantly. The longer there is a wait to expose it, the less credible it is. That is the world we live in. And it's not just CGI either, the Donbass region has been (supposedly) shelled for years - what are we seeing with a still picture of a burned out car or a gutted building?

The WHOLE reason to have everybody armed with a camera, is exposure. When I was a kid, a video camera was a fake toy for pretend. Today, the same exact toy is superior to a video camera in 2000, and costs just as much as that toy and it actually works. It's really an odd time we live in.

I don't understand why you insist on a "deal".

Fuck the establishment, expose them, and when enough people recognize what fucking garbage we've naively allowed to attain power - remove them.

I was the most ardent absolute atheist you'd ever meet at one point. I HATED religion and would happily demolish a religious person at one point and I was good at it. But there's a real war between good and evil, a lot of people can see this now. What side are you on?

Even if I am certain to lose, I know what side I'm on, and I don't think we'll lose.

The Great Awakening was something that Zbigniew Brzezinski is SAID to have worried about. Basically, if the common people found out what a bunch of fucking garbage our criminal establishment was, they'd all be dead. He worried about that. We've gone through a very tumultuous time in the last 3 decades of technological development, the Internet is FAR more powerful than the Gutenburg press was, and we can record everything now. I'm hoping we're starting to see the start of the death throws of a clearly corrupt and evil establishment.

And if you don't want to help, get out of the way. YOU shut up or not, it's doesn't matter. We've had to deal with disinformation and propagandists for decades - we know they won't go away, but we can design around them. It's like mold doesn't go away, or disease. You can wish it didn't exist, but criminality always will, we just keep making better systems to contain the rot.

Ok, let's go.

1. This evidence is already plentiful. Twitter is your friend.
2. The only reason that you don't find it "undeniable" is because you question the source, the circumstances, the participants, the location, and cry foul.
3. Specifically me, you already have labeled "fucking Hasbera" - it's apparently a dirty word in your vocab - with implication that I'm on propaganda mission.
4. Because of (3), it makes little sense to contribute to already plentiful information on the subject, because you'll continue to question the source and authenticity just as well. I'd be providing no additional data points.
5. It's actually an effort for me. Because I'd have to contact the people who created the content and ask for permission. Which is a burden. And I'd feel quite silly talking about this nonsense to someone who's in real danger.
6. However, there is merit in shutting up at least one propaganda troll.
7. Because of (6) I offered this deal. I'm ready to go through the inconvenience if I get something back.

I hope that this doesn't overwhelm you to the point that you can no longer set up a server.

You are correct to some extent. But we know from the past two years, and probably before that they censor viewpoints that don't line up with their own. So they are really more of a source than a tool due to the bias. And so far I've only see propaganda on twitter, though that doesn't really make them stand out. I see propaganda almost everywhere to the point that it took me almost a week to find an impartial source who could tell me what was really going on.
