Re: Last one to post wins the internets
That argument again, doesn't have any basis in logic, fact, evidence or impartiality. This argument can be applied in any direction you don't like. I consume as wide a variety of sources as I can, get contrasting views, weigh up the evidence and am left with the very few people that actually seem to care about reality. Whoever they may be, and whatever their political leanings are is irrelevant to the pursuit of truth. I don't agree with lots of people, that doesn't mean they can't say something useful.
Alan Watts is a good example. By all accounts he was somewhat a cunt, but some of the things he spoke about resonate with me. I'm not going to ignore those because he once worked for someone that someone else told me I shouldn't listen to because it's bad. That's mad talk.
Re: Last one to post wins the internets
Try watching a speech by the leaders of the following countries and observe the contrast.
-China
-Russia
-USA
-UK
-Germany
-Hungary
There are plenty others, but these are most relevant to the subject at hand, I think. Some of the lies are very easy to disprove. It's a sad day when people think that consensus is equal to truth. It is not. As an example, Galileo's theories would have seen him labelled as 'disinformation' in today's climate, as he went against the consensus.

I genuinely think that the majority of people not opposing this war are one of the following:
Multi-National corporations
Racists
People radicalized by the extremist views of their media / governments.

Re: Last one to post wins the internets
I think you can justifiably criticize certain Western democracies. Where I have a problem is when it's done in defense of places like Russia.
I'm fairly sure that anything bad that the UK or the US might have done didn't force Putin to carpet bomb children.
Re: Last one to post wins the internets
I don't see the need to defend anything or anyone. Only criticize the obvious double-standards, lies and murders by whoever do them.
Your post actually reads like a statement from Joe Biden, only a little more coherent. When did 'Putin carpet bomb children' ?
Ironically, it is historical fact that the US and NATO (The collective West) has carpet bombed civilians, including children on more than one occasion, so you kind of shot your self in the foot with that point. :pinch:
Re: Last one to post wins the internets
During the second World War the US bombed Dresden out of existence and let us not forget Hiroshima and Nagasaki. You seem to think my repudiation of Russia is somehow supporting these past actions. In this you'd be the opposite of right.
As for "carpet bombing of children", as you please. I guess purposely targeting with missiles would be more accurate.
