This site is not required to grant free speech. I suggest banning Russian propagandists. Whether you are right or left it is still an American message board.
Putin completely destroyed the MAGA narrative that he is a devout Christian compassionate person that just wants peace. He also crushed the Russia good/China bad right wing narrative by saying the US should think of China as a trading partner not an enemy. All while not letting Tucker talk and spinning his revisionist Russia/Ukraine history lesson going back to the 9th century.
Putin will kill people who betray Russia. As for the Ukraine war the blame falls not on Putin (as I see it) but on the meocons in Washington who wanted war,psy notably Victoria Nuland. FWIW, the US also kills people abroad. Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria. And the US got involved in WW1, WW2, the Korean war, Vietnam, the wars in the Balkans. Every time there was a Democrat or a neocon controlled Bush in the White House.Now the IS is aiding Israelis in ethnic cleansing of Palestinians who are probably more genetically related to ancient Jews than they are (the Israelis). . Maybe war isn't the answer. Eisenhower was right about the military-imdustrial complex.
Yeah, we got all that "America kills people, too" stuff from Trump in 2016. We weren't buying that as an excuse for Putin then or now. The Ukraine invasion is all on Russia. Trump's rape victims didn't ask for it, either.
How do you even stumble on a college football message board? Do you also post on other college football team message boards? Good job changing your Twitter handle btw. Steve + random numbers really gave the game away. Should help a bit with your credibility next time.
Clearly that poster is nothing more than a propagandist for Putin. Reminds me of the crap we would hear from them during the cold war.
How about Russia bad, but China way worse, and Chinese tentacles are all over US power structure, while Russia is a toothless tiger half a world away. What's more, China flooding fentanyl through our southern border, not Russia. Middle Eastern terrorists flocking through as well...and sex slaves being trafficked through, along with drugs by Mex cartel... But yall want to shit your britches over Ukraine's border, and Russia Russia Russia--that's stalled, spending 2 years, 10s of thousands of soldiers' lives, and about 1/3 of their war toys, just to encroach on half the width of Florida....so scary! Surely they will ease through Europe like a hot knife through butter! NB: yall always invoke Hitler comparison--Hitler conquered Poland in 2 days, at next to zero loss of military capability. Just stop. Russia's a joke. NB 2: MAD still operative, and Russia is petrified of NATO, whose members we're bound to protect. NB 3: Ukraine is NOT a member of NATO.
The fear is that the gullible will suck up to what is said without regard to any fact or reality. Tucker says … so it’s true. Like the rage he knowingly built with his base over the lies concerning a stolen election. Tucker is a dangerous, treacherous tool.
the timing of the interview is intentional - right before congress finally votes on aid. putin knows maga listens to tucker.
If Putin had run America since 2000 there would have been no wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya or Ukraine. Our borders would be secure, deficits and total debt would be lower. Our military would be smaller but more able. The US would be working with Russia to stop the spread of radioactive materials to terrorists. Millions of people would be alive who are not dead Russia will one day be an ally of America. Germany will once again get cheap energy from Russia. Biden once said that Putin had made the biggest move towards democracy in Russia since Peter the Great. Bill Clinton said Putin honored every deal they made. Bush 43 thought Putin was honest and "straight+forward." What happened? American and Russian oligarchs found that Putin was a Russian patriot who was slowly neutering them. Russia's raw materials and Putin's good governance reduced poverty in the country from 40% to 1.5%. The neocons were not happy. They wanted Russia to stay weak. When the neocons did an about face on Putin so did most Democrats and a large number of Republicans. If you want to avoid stupid wars like the one in Ukraine that's killed a half million so far, maybe you should see things as other countries do, Putin and Russia for example. But the Putin haters stuck their fingers in their ears. People like me who bring facts and logical arguments are demonized. You do this because you've been brainwashed. Neocons control the media you consume. What's funny is that everything some of you say about Putin says far more about Zelensky than Putin.
This is true, but when skilled propagandists like Tucker twist and manipulate the facts and story, the reality of what you just said is slowly and subtly lost.
The biggest takeaway from its analysis is The Duran is not a reliable source. “poor or no sourcing to credible information, a complete lack of transparency, and/or is fake news.” Highly recommend pursuing more reliable news sources.
Pretty sure he's not a bot. I guess he could be Ai. But the twitter thing makes me think it's a human. Strange life to live.
When Russia was Communist Democrats wanted to engage and negotiate with Russia. My family was strongly anti-comminit. They wrote about my dad in the biggest publications in America including Time, Life, Reader's Digest, the Washington Post, The New York Times and the small but influential National Review. An Associate Dean at Yale Law School was influenced by one close family member's work on communist psychological warfare techniques and used it against Republicans on MSNBC I believe. I'm probably more anti-communist than virtually any other poster. But when Russia got rid of communist rule the smart thing was to make it our friend, not our enemy. Do some of you think Russia is still communist? Putin is passionately against communism. The communist party is allowed to participate in Russian elections. Zelensky banned 11 political parties. Who"s the real dictator?
During this disastrous interview, the GOP's hero Putin said that WW2 was the fault of Poland. He said that Hitler just had a glorious vision (of expanding into Europe) and Poland had the nerve to resist him realizing it. Even Tucker during this interview saying nothing looked like he was realizing that Putin has lost his mind.
