      Nah, he’s right. Americans and Westerners here are fully brainwashed by the empire’s propaganda, which is why they act so shocked when things happen that are just expected for anyone who understands America and vassals as what they are. The downvotes just prove it.

        What about the rote Russian propaganda that the person I responded to regurgitated?

            So criticising Russia or China is being brainwashed but criticising a Western country being open-minded and enlightened. Got it.

              Looking at YappyMonotheist’s post history, I’m pretty sure they’re just a troll, I would just ignore and move on.

                I’ve interacted with them before, I don’t think they’re a troll, just a chronically online weirdo with barely any understanding of anything they’re talking about.

                  I just thoroughly disproved their claim that “objective morality” comes from God a couple days ago, and the nut just kept yammering incoherently.

                  Just report, block, and move on. They’re not worth wasting your time on

                So is Russia currently engaged in an imperialist invasion and occupation of a neighbour to exert regional control and seize resources or is that just me being brainwashed?

                  More like a defensive war post American coup of Ukraine since, if left to their own devices, Ukraine would’ve been an even stronger NATO FOB. No need to wait for that, unless you’re suicidal or in cahoots with the West, you can see how they act with impunity if they have the upper hand as they did with Iran (because they have their FOB colony, Israel) just some months ago… Russia and Europe WERE integrating, with Nord Steam and all, but America made its moves and weakened the continent (mostly Western Europe, Russia has other allies and financial avenues, the West only has daddy America) and everything followed from there. Remember: this war is a war against Western Europe more so than a war against Russia, and every European politician pushing for war has taken American/globalist money.
