Ugh, this is boring.

Not everything is a narrative and not every omitted fact or forgotten nuance visible from a perspective of a local is "apologism". Back again, kinda hard to act friendly when people are so systemically discriminating against anything that doesn't correlate with their impressions.

What is so wrong with my comment history that you are now accusing me of a thoughcrime? It's just that your comment history is also full of, let us call it "opinionated", arguments, but I'm not acting that you are a worse person than me. Why are you acting like you are a better person than me I wonder?

I am saying that being mad or surprised over a company with significant employee base in Kharkiv not wishing to conduct any business with Russian (Located in Russia, not tested by DNA, mind you) customers whilst their city was literally being bombed by Russia is very tone deaf.

And /on top of that/, the fact that almost a whole year of war later you spread Russian propaganda about "we don't know the whole truth, think about what US did in 'nam!", is just cherry on the cake.

Oh, "tone deaf", nice. Everything is a "tone", a "narrative", a "propaganda" these days, ugh. Well sorry for being an individual and not singing in unison.

You've just assigned me an image of your ideological enemies and projected the rest from there. Your impression is your problem, not mine - this is clearly not about my comments or their specific contents (because their substance has nothing in common with your assessment), this is you grinding your teeth over the fact that some people may discuss points you don't like.

>Well sorry for being an individual

That's rich.

>this is you grinding your teeth over the fact that some people may discuss points you don't like.

This is me stating directly that you are a bad person for consistently spreading the Russian propaganda(https://www.martenscentre.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/russ...), I don't know why you are trying to paint it as some sort of "gotcha".

> That's rich.

Haters gonna hate.

> This is me stating directly that you are a bad person

Okay. I don't take people who label every other random sampled inconvenient piece of information or opinion as "consistent spreading of propaganda" seriously anyway. Don't suppose anyone actually does, this isn't really a healthy thing, seems kinda Orwellian.

You’re a troll, one hundred percent and you are now arguing in bad faith. Calling out propaganda for what it is isn’t a bad thing and I'm happy most people here are seeing through your lies. Maybe stop watching RT news so much.
