Certainly and the CCP does too.

I think for the reasons I mentioned.

Yes.

Russia fricked with our election because of the sanctions we put on them for invading Crimea and the Donbas.
This is all part of the same story and you can LARP your version of it with the Q-baws or try to make sense of it with the rest of us.

From the Kyiv Independent twitter
It's very possible another general was killed, but people will want to get confirmation on anything that comes from the Kyiv Independent. They're approaching the same level as RT, but for Ukraine. Probably not quite as bad, but I've personally seen several things they've put out over the past month that's been debunked.

Yeah, those couple thousands they spent in facebook ads really turned the tide.

You wouldn't know the truth if it fell in your lap. You spent 6 years believing an outright lie because you still don't want to accept the fact that your candidate lost. Since then it's morphed into a religion for you loons (absolute same level a Q).
I just find it hilariously ironic that you support the actions of the federal government over the last 6 years, including draconian covid restrictions, then have the audacity to pretend like you're some sort of democracy advocate.
Don't go changin', doc

quote:Putting my Poli Sci degree to work... I think that's why it's important to get news from a variety of sources. I think it provides a much more complete picture and allows people to form their own conclusions from what has been presented. Personally that means FNC NEWS through Bret Baier, ABC nightly news (DVR), NBC local news, and sometimes I'll throw on CNN until they put one of their fake conservatives on to bash the party.
people who incessantly scream that they hate "MSM", yet they've essentially traded "MSM" for another group of media that wants to manipulate them.
I think when normal people complain about the MSM they really mean LEGACY media (CBS/ABC/NBC) which have increasingly moved left of where the center of our country stands. CNN came along over a decade before FNC/MSNBC making them legacy media on cable...they took a pretty hard turn left with the "OMB" attitude. (I had never seen a WH reporter release a book glorifying himself as they were using press conferences to raise their profile. *cough* Jim Acosta *cough*)
The reason why you hear Republicans complain about it is because those legacy outlets are all that's available for low income people who can't afford anything above basic cable (and some can't even afford that.) I think the term "low IQ voter" is sometimes used for those people. So yes, there are nutcases who use MSM to describe any channel that does not agree with their extreme views but there is a legitimate argument about the LEGACY media's move away from nearly unbiased reporting.
And now back to our daily discussion about Ukraine bashing in Russia's nose...

That's right. Q discourse is propaganda that's crowd-sourced by people who are fundamentally critics of democracy and think authoritarianism is the answer to our problems.
They're basically ideological buddies of the progressive left, they just don't realize it.

Every rumor of a general officer casualty has so far proven to be true though

Small country next to Djibouti. I’m sure you’ve heard of that place
Countries have kinds of reasons for abstaining votes. Not always straightforward

A place you don't ever want to visit. About on par with North Korea in terms of how they treat their population.

Right. Just warning about that publication in general. Not this specific event.

Politics is circular… the further you move left or right the closer you get to each other.

The first 100 or so Switchblade loitering drone munitions have arrived to Ukrainian forward units.
