CAPON: Dull and boring.
Let me correct you: I dismissed YOU constantly bringing that up like it justifies dismissing all non-Ruski/aurthoitarian reporting.
You repeating something over and over does not make it valid for every case. That's just you on dull and boring, auto argue.

Syria/Assad

TRUMP
Russia/Putin
N Korea/Kim Jong Un
Inflation
Racism/white supremacy
SARS-CoV-2
Southern border
The lie and the "by whom" would be essential to know. Kind of like the facts that would lead to real understanding instead of your rah! rah! russia!
The thing that happens when you dismiss all reporting is it creates a vacuum into which authoritarians can spin their propaganda, and ram it down the throats of an unsuspecting, unsophisticated, weak minded civilian population who won't know fact from truth... then they can make them jump like monkeys and do all sorts of nasty sht. Maybe even Jan 6 stuff.
Uh oh! Holy shit! Fck! I just gave up the game, didn't I?! Zigfool - we know what the game is and we know how it's played and we know what side of truth you're on.

Like Russia and Syria except the part about Syria being a dictatorship.

While I agree that Trump voters are exceedingly stupid, I think they can find Ukraine by now.

I think this part you are actually, sadly, pretty close on. Some people can't see beyond their front door.

It is a real shame Russia decided to start that journey, I'll give you that. One fucking guy did all this.

And since you haven't demonstrated that there's any "there" there to the topic, this is a pointless thread.

Pity would be no more,
If we did not MAKE men poor - reportedly NOT William Blake, but Signym.

Matt Taibbi did what Signym is doing, but with more nuisance at "16 Years Later, How the Press That Sold the Iraq War Got Away With It"

-fail-matt-taibbi-812230/
Taibbi doesn't place the blame where it belongs, with Bush and Cheney. Despite the voters knowing Bush and Cheney had lied about everything with the help of the 51% of "reporters" who are really only "stenographers" repeating whatever lie the White House wants to spread, the 51% of voters reelected the nincompoop Bush and the liar Cheney. With four more years, those two could continue screwing up even worse than the first four years.

"The result is an absence of checks and balances in Russia, and the decision of one man to launch a wholly unjustified and brutal invasion of Iraq," said Bush, before catching himself and shaking his head. "I mean -- of Ukraine."

Oh. And do make sure that you don't "dumb down" the way you speak when explaining to the blacks and Latinos who aren't going to vote Democrat why it's in their best interest that we're sending $40 Billion to track-suit puppet president* Z while gas prices here are over 5 bucks a gallon and people are going to start murdering each other for food.
Just a tip. Yanno... Because you white Democrats are racist fucks.

Oh, and since it chaps your ass SO MUCH that I misquoted ONE WORD (which, in your view, makes everything I post unreliable. How about applying that standard to YOURSELF, boy?) I'm fixing the quote. It doesn't change the meaning, tho.

Quote:The words you should change are "William Blake" to "Signym". It is no surprise that you don't understand William Blake's poem, which doesn't mean what the first two lines in isolation seem to mean.

The topic is pure simplicity: Russians lose their equipment because they lack conviction, competence and courage. These are also the three "C"s that make many Americans poor as in Signym's misuse of a William Blake poem. They, both Russians and American poor, abandon effective tactics against their problems. The poor are exactly the kind of people who would misunderstand a William Blake poem for years and years because they won't click on the link that explains the poem to them. https://www.sparknotes.com/poetry/blake/section8/
There are also links to click on for effective military tactics, but Russians won't click on those, either, because they won the Great Patriotic War in 1945, therefore they already know how to win in 2022. But if Russians would compare the number of dead Russians, dead Germans, dead Brits, and dead Americans, the Russians should realize they know nothing about effective war tactics, which is why 3 times as many Russians died as Germans.
Unfortunately for Russians, half those dead Germans were killed by Americans, Brits, and French. That makes the Russian military tactics even more incompetent than if the Russians assume they killed all 7 million dead Germans.

country
Russians tried to even the score with Germany by continuing to kill 2.5 million Germans after peace was declared. It is not surprising what Russians are doing to civilians in Ukraine because during the Great Patriotic War, Russians were even more murderous toward Germans after victory.

Nobody has demonstrated that Russians are losing "so much" military equipment.
How about finding a reliable figure to start?
Unless you do that, all you're doing is blowing bubbles.
Right, SECOND?

Oh, and along with your bubbles about Russia and Trump, let me pop your bubble about the poem:
Quote:this is in his original handwriting
You interpret the poem however you like, SECOND. Blake crossed off the alternate "If there was nobody poor"
Quote:
to emphasize that impoverishing people is something we do on purpose. More here:
