Here we go.

When the conspiracy theory is proven wrong, just create a new level



It makes no sense to argue the all powerful West had to elect a new puppet, especially since it took a coup to do it last time, apparently.

If your theory about the West/Globalists and this "coup" are true, Zelensky fought them and won by ousting the puppet in 2019. The influence of the West/Globalists would then be nill at that point,

Zelensky installed in 2019 because the prior regime bucked on the U.S.

I love how you ignore the rest to focus on this straw-grasping, especially with your "factual" "trust me bro" citations

I’m the one bringing facts and actual journalism to this discussion backing up my points my man. You on the other hand keep calling the Maidan Coup a conspiracy

Was there much, if any, evidence of this prior to Maidan?

The split between Washington and both Paris and Berlin about admitting Ukraine to NATO emerged clearly in 2008 when President George W. Bush lobbied ferociously for extending such an invitation

U.S. leaders did not give up, however, nor did Kiev. Barack Obama’s administration continued a campaign to admit Ukraine to the alliance,


Yes there is ample evidence that the US was pressing for Ukrainian nato membership from 2004-14

Read this


SFP, spend the $25 and get this book. It’s not fan fiction. 1/2 of every page is sites with receipts to declassified documents and interviews. You have no clue what you are talking about. It’s a long book but worth it.

SlowFag is the guy that thought Bush was literally Hitler for the US getting involved in the Middle East but now totally supports the US getting involved in Eastern Europe.

His beliefs are tied to which party is supporting intervention. If republicans are supporting it, he’s against it, if democrats support it then he’s all for it.

It specifically did not. Z and 2013/2014 are separate arguments.

Z is much less important than 2013/2014. You ignored 2013/2014

Well sure, but it's not this "gotcha", especially in the modern context.

Everything I said can be backed up with facts, but you're ignoring that to create discussions about irrelevant things not being discussed and then citing "trust me bro" and "connect the dot" "sources"

The “modern context” certainly didn’t stop your dumbass from responding with historical context.

I did not approve the invasion of Iraq

I don't approve of US having any sort of meaningful presence on the ground in Ukraine, either (excluding special forces and intel specifically, which is not an invasion in any context).

Another lie.

So long as we ignore the Ukrainian invasion he's never attacked Europe.


In general though I find that we don't need to deal with despotic leaders like Putin. Russia is not much more than a large cartel of gangsters at the top. Why would countries who value democracy desire to work with countries like that more than we have to. Anyone who takes Putin at his word is a fool.

Yes because bringing it up in the first place was illogical.

I just showed why, with historical context.

You can continue to double down on the illogical if you wish. You were already busted lying twice in the last post of your's to which I responded.

The rest of it talks about the west as one entity when it wasn’t always the case. The United States led the charge on nato membership and had to convince the euro leaders.

For that reason it’s a flawed thought process that gets you to arguing it doesn’t make sense for the USA to initiate the coup.

It actually makes a ton of sense if Europe wasn’t 100% on board in ‘13/14. The U.S. installs its puppet and doesn’t need nato membership, problem solved
