Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

There wouldn’t have been any victims without Maidan Coup and even with Maidan Coup had Zelenskyy not give into the demands of right wing neo-Nazis by refusing to implement Minsk.

Yeah I’m not clicking your stupid link. Your words are poison.

It was just the jolly good words of former British PM Boris Johnson himself.

You can always just use https://liveuamap.com/en/2019/26-october-president-of-ukraine-zelensky-has-visited-disengaging to see the Azovite neo-Nazis confront Zelenskyy, these neo-Nazis sabotaged the peace initiative with their “No to Capitulation” campaign.

Boris is the biggest liar in British political history by a country mile, and his nonsense takes on the past to justify his actions mean nothing. To Boris, thinking about whether a statement is true or not before using it for political ends is an insane waste of time and effort and needlessly hampers your argument.

So to anyone who is in the last bit familiar about how Boris operates, quoting him to try to establish what's true is like asking a random number generator what your age is. I mean, it might be right, but the fact that it's the random number generator that said it is a pathetically weak argument.

No doubt, see Brexit.

I suggest reading this.

Ah yes, a website I've never heard of before. Much more convincing. /s.

I mean, how convinced are you by the evidence "someone wrote it on a webpage you never heard of"?

How much time and effort do you spend on promoting Russian talking points in an average day or week?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

So Ukrainian state media is Russian propaganda now?

No, you are. Keep up.
