This is just the Clerks Death Star contractors debate all over again.

I for one am happy to see our leaders being more open about their true views. It makes you sound a lot less like a conspiracy theorist when you can pull up a clip of them actually saying the thing.

Now we just have to figure out how to get liberals to care. Who am I kidding? They think this way too

My greatest achievement is never once resorting to listening to the radio in my 20+ years of driving. CD disc man, then an MP3 CD player, then a 32MB MP3 player, then a 10GB MP3 player followed by a series of iPods and iPhones. Even millennials these days lambast the state of music, but I contend that there is more good music being put out every year, it’s just harder to find. Sometimes I find it, sometimes I don’t, but at least I’m not listening to the same 40 tracks on repeat every day. And at least I’m not listening to whatever is considered “classic rock” these days. Please comrades, if I ever tune into a classic rock station and say, “this is my jam”, just put me out of my misery.

Sorry if I unnecessarily jumped down your throat comrade. It just sounded like you were, “wah, the Russians are saying they are French soldiers, the French are saying they are freelance citizens”. Maybe I’m just jaded, but I don’t believe western governments anymore. BUT, I will admit that I also didn’t trust the state department when they were saying Russia was going to invade Ukraine any day either, so what do I know. My assessment was that Putin was smart and that it wouldn’t be easy and that they would incur heavy losses, so they wouldn’t do it. It turns out I was wrong and after those heavy loses, Russia is gaining the upper ground. I guess living in the west, and knowing how much of our tax dollars is fueling the MIC, that I thought our weapons were a little more capable than they are turning out to be. My main point is that we are all subject to propaganda, myself included. And we are heavily propagandized in the west, so pervasively that we don’t even realize it. Either way, listen to both sides, make an assessment of those sides based on evidence and materiel conditions. If I had to wager a $1000 on it right now, my money is on everyone on that list is a French special force being funded directly by whatever is the French equivalent of the CIA is.

Here, I’ll break it down for your lib brain hopped up on western propaganda. These are French special forces just like US special forces have “served” in Ukraine. They are essentially spies trying to assist Ukraine, operating under the presumption that if they are captured they deny any official involvement with the French government. The Russians know this, the Ukrainians know this, the NATO allied western forces know this, especially the US because NATO is the US. Russia is calling it out because it’s an obvious provocation to war. It’s just you that aren’t clued in, and the state department’s talking points are that they aren’t part of an official operation because, gasp!, that would mean we are at war with Russia. Nah, it’s still just another proxy war, one of many in a long line dating back to immediately after WWII.

I doubt it will lead to another WWIII, but Russia is going to use it for their propaganda because it also happens to be true. Wait, you do realize that all governments and media do propaganda all the time, right?

I know that you don’t know and that’s what’s so frustrating. I’m so sick of you holy than thou liberals. You really are more despicable than conservatives who are simply lizard brain sadists. Simply look at how many deaths we are responsible for compared to LITERALLY EVERY OTHER COUNTRY OR HORRIFIC REGIME EVER. How much suffering we are responsible for, how many people we have incarcerated compare to LITERALLY EVERY OTHER COUNTRY IN THE WORLD. How many homeless people we have, children suffering from food insecurity, racial disparities at all levels of society from access to education, housing, food. How everyone is always toiling away so that they don’t end up homeless and on the streets. Medical debt, educational debt. Things that don’t even exist in actual civilized societies. And that’s not even touching the surface of our horrific foreign policy since our existence. Constantly looking for new people to enslave and exploit.

I’m tired of making excuses for ignorant liberals after seeing their reaction to Oct. 7th. Yeah, you’re the pathetic product of your material conditions, but if you can’t see that you are the German populace quietly supporting the Nazi regime in 1930s Germany then truly history is meant to repeat itself.

I love it when both libs and conservatives don’t realize that I understand their position better than they do.
