In the time of the U.S.S.R., it was the people in the East that had a completely idiotic, distorted vision of what the West was up to; the iron curtain meant their "information" was garbage.

But now...in the info age, it's amazing to see people stupid enough to fall for government lies (this time Washington's).  You can crack a history book too.  Some of this stuff is so dumb it's hard to believe how any of you can believe what you're saying.

No one in their right mind thinks Russia would invade secretly, or with a few dozen armoured cars.   Russia doesn't start wars, it finishes them.  If they invaded, you would know it (it wouldn't be a secret invasion with journalists claiming it's just aid).   And the Ukrainian army would be finished within the hour.

And you'd be left with your meaningless talk.

"fall for government lies (this time Washington's)" so you're willing to fall for Russian government lies instead? Cheesy

Just beyond stupid!  Why do you assume all the counter propaganda is from Russia???  I've already linked to an article written by an ex-Whitehouse staffer on the subject.  One of your accounts already dismissed it as "Russian".  
Are you completely unaware of reality not depicted by Fox News or CNN?   Here's the article again:


Fool, if you're talking about me, well I'm not one of that person's accounts. I've been here since 2011. Careful with that THC, Michael Rasta. The POWERS THAT BE are selectively breeding weed with less CBD so that you will be more paranoid and more likely to get schizophrenia, stoner.

Being an "ex-whitehouse staffer" does not make the author of an opinion piece more credible. Their endorsement is meaningless. They're still just as likely to have some bitter vendetta as ex-US people now working for RT or wherever else. Perhaps more likely. #Cult of personality.


With this avalanche of conflicting information from various sources, sometimes it pays to take a step back and try and see what fits and what does not fit. For me, painting the East Ukrainian rebels as innocent freedom fighters battling against fascism and Western belligerence DOES NOT FIT the evidence.


In case you have forgotten, it was the Kremlin that "leaked" the Nuland conversation in the first place.
