Oh you mean the comedy TV show that was wildly popular in Russia? That does not compare to Putin, raising the shirt and kissing a little boy’s bare skin. Do you see a difference Jan?

Yeah, we all hate homo pushers. But it was Russia that invaded Ukraine. It was Russia that invaded the Republic of Georgia. It is Russia that threatens the Baltic states, Poland, and even scares Sweden into abandoning its long-standing tradition of neutrality. To blame the invasion on “globohomo” makes as much sense as blaming the war on the cult of Daniel Ortega.
There would be no war if the Revolutionaries would have let the Oblasts secede.
The Donbas wants to be part of Ukraine. Of course, North Korea did recognize the Putin referendum. Meanwhile thousands of Russian speakers are fighhting to get back to their hometowns in the Donbas and kick the Russians, Chechens, and other Mohammedans out.
That's a tired and pointless argument, and it happens to have originated in Russian propaganda offices.
If you really believed that you "had no dog in this fight" then why are you wasting time posting about it?
If you really think everything you read is not true, then you statement that "Ukraine has gone from one of the most corrupt countries in the world..." is based on nothing at all. The only way to know that bit of information would be to have read it in some media report.
If you really believed that everything the media posted is fake, or untrue, then you don't even know who played in the super bowl. And you certainly don't know enough to have any opinion about what is happening in a foreign country.
Your argument is just an excuse to disrupt discussions, and create a fog of uncertainty.
They were separated from Ukraine by Russia soldiers and Russian controlled militias. That was the first phase of Russia's attack on Ukraine.
That's strong evidence they are really Russians, since most Americans couldn't care less about that kind of accusation, particularly when it is clearly false.
“If you really think everything you read is not true, then you statement that “Ukraine has gone from one of the most corrupt countries in the world...” is based on nothing at all. The only way to know that bit of information would be to have read it in some media report.”
My statement regarding Ukraine’s corruptness was based upon media’s previous reporting and thus I was pointing out the difference in the narrative over the span of just a few years. ALL BY THE MEDIA! Which we are told to now trust. We were also told to trust them in the past. I do not know whether their previous reporting was true just as I do not know whether their current reporting is true. I was not saying I believed either narrative for I have no way of knowing. Which was my entire point.
That's laugh out loud ridiculous. According to your theory the goal of gay men is to "kill all the men first". Just why would they want to do that?
Do you ever realize how silly your ideas are?
Thanks for confirming my point. You say you have no way of knowing what is true, but you have an opinion about it anyway and rely on the truth of the statements you say are untrue as the basis for your opinion.
You should just admit that you have no idea if Ukraine was or is more or less corrupt than any other country. From that point of view you really can't offer any kind of opinion that relies on the supposed amount of corruption in Ukraine.
Under the old regime, leftovers from the Russian era, Ukraine was even more corrupt than Russia.
Today Ukraine is far less corrupt than Russia, and Ukraine is moving up on the less corrupt scale while Russia is getting worse on it.
Zelensky and his party are reformers, it isn’t 2015 anymore.
In 2015 Russia was ranked as less corrupt than Ukraine.
In 2015 Russia was at 119 and Ukraine at 130
Today Russia is at 137 and Ukraine at 116.
“You say you have no way of knowing what is true, but you have an opinion about it anyway and rely on the truth of the statements you say are untrue as the basis for your opinion.”
My opinion is “I have no way of knowing”. I’m not saying I believe one side over the other, because I HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING.
You are assuming I have an opinion for one side or the other when I have said I don’t. Obviously, you have an opinion as to which side is correct and wish me to acknowledge you are right. I refuse to do so.
I should have learned by now not to try to discuss matters with anyone that resembles a fence post.
My real name is Evelyn Salt.
I guarantee the dem/Soros anti-American trolls are much more numerous and effective than anything the Russians have. Thousand would reply to every Trump tweet in a matter of seconds.
Okay, them too.
