    Yeah- this right here. Thank you for pointing out the propaganda you guys feast on daily. That was exactly my point. Oh except for the part where you said no one said Ukrainians are nazis- plenty of you definitely say that.

        That’s just not true. The azov battalion HAD a problem with it but it was mostly dealt with prior to the current conflict. The rest of what you said is more Russian propaganda

            Yeah?

            1st) buzzfeed 2nd) the whole article is talking about the concern that the azov battalion could gain polotical/social favor by fighting for ukraine … like it did in 2014.

            Yes the above battalion was fully of extremists. . Yes right up until the annexation of crimea they had been on a downward trajectory with regard to recruitment, socio and political power. After the intial conflicts in 2014 there was a a resurgence. The us military refused to work with anyone known to have been associated with the battalion and/or far right extremism- so there was kind of a whitewashing that went on internally.

            Your war is literally the thing that is giving azov battalion more clout in Ukraine. Whereas if you’d just left it alone ukraine was on track to cleaning up corruption and extremism.

            Which is more than likely exactly why russia invaded- the country was headed towards future stability and closer relations to Europe and the west.

                Technically correct- it didn’t as the azove group. It was a few different groups beforehand that was brought together. I don’t remember the names off hand but my point still stands. Russia invaded ukraine twice and that is what keeps azov as a relevant force.

                  so first you claim that

                  The azov battalion HAD a problem with it

                  which sounds like you saying that the azov battalion had a problem with nazis and then they got the nazis out of azov, and you would not be the first hapless liberal bootlicker I’ve seen say that because they read articles saying after February 2022. but whatever, I guess you mistyped and you meant that the various nazi groups banded together, and I’m supposed to read your mind and know you mistyped. I’m not arguing about what exactly was happening in 2014, I’m kinda tired of dealing with this debate pervert shit

            At least learn what ad hominem is if you’re going to use it to try and sound smart. What people should be looking at is your post history. Now that’s what an actual propagandist shill looks like.

              Lol. Oh really?

              ad ho·mi·nem

              adjective

              (of an argument or reaction) directed against a person rather than the position they are maintaining.

              prop·a·gan·dist Noun

              a person who promotes or publicizes a particular organization or cause.

              Which organization or cause am I promoting again? Meanwhile yours is full of anti west bullshit with terrible sources, easily disproven clickbait, and you constantly insulting anyone who dares take the 30 seconds it takes to dismantle your delusional ranting.

                Ad hominem would be me saying you’re wrong because of your personal qualities. I’m saying you’re wrong and you’re deplorable not that you’re wrong because you’re deplorable. Ad hominem is actually what you’re doing. You’re trying to discredit my posts by making personal attacks on me, but you never engage with the actual content of my posts. Seems like you’ve taken the whole day here to make a clown of yourself, but failed to take the 30 seconds to address anything I said. Bye troll.

                  Oh yeah? I’ve already pointed out your posting of disinformation in previous comments. Your response? Blocking me because you knew I was right. Literally half the time you post something the second page of your own source completely discredits your original point. You post clickbait and don’t even bother to read it yourself clown.

                  I literally gave you the definition of ad hominem and you still fucked it up. You attack character- not position. You have made 0 counters to any arguments I’ve made. Purely attacking me personally. That’s literally the definition of ad hominem. And you literally havent made any attempt at a point in this discussion- so literally nothing to counter. So yeah- goodbye indeed troll. Again.

        You should read your comment when you’re sober and if you’re still not embarrassed enough to delete it then what else is there to say.

                The fact that any opinion that dissents from the mainstream western political discourse is branded as “propaganda” by people the likes of you demonstrates the virulently xenophobic paranoia that plagues the west (and always has). You are too daft to understand that the person you are talking about is a communist, and his posts reflect his ideas, not the paid interests of a foreign power, the same way it would be idiotic to call you a Ukrainian propagandist for excusing the unapologetic racism of its government officials.
