Are the propagandists winning?

It seems like more people than ever before have the skills to spot it.

US Army extends tour of duty for 4,000 troops currently deployed in Europe for 'as long as they are needed' during Putin’s Ukraine invasion

I'd say there's 4,000 Americans who are impacted AF. PLUS their families.

FYI, your use of the word "triggered" (in earnest, no less) tips your hand on where you fall in the debate.

How....exactly...meaning be specific...did the propaganda listed in the OP influence this? Is it your stance that without said propaganda, then those 4k troops wouldn't be on standby?

Ukrainians are trying to keep moral high so their people keep fighting. Maybe cry a little less about it.

Every other argument you've had has fallen apart at the seams, so this is probably a good time to point out that higher-level discussions with someone who doesn't know the difference between "moral" and "morale" is likely going to be a fool's errand. I let it slide the first time, but after you did it again, clearly your seat on the short bus is warm from use.

You're also more than welcome to explain how a story about a Ukrainian pilot shooting down 6 migs or a grandmother holding a rifle has a direct influence on us.

Explain specifically what he's referring to by "appears to be throwing their weight behind Putin".

Policy will be made, and the morons directing that policy may be influenced by this stuff.

How can you actually have faith in Congress?

Where do you see that in this thread?

What policy would be made specifically because of the Ghost of Kyiv story?

Zelinsky suspended it significantly the past couple years, including imprisoning journalists.

Is it bad that I would be completely fine with our media getting the same treatment?
