Good thread on his this bio lab bs spreads into us media.
I saw this earlier today, and it's interesting. There are a few things in this that don't really pass the mustard, so to speak. I have questions.
I'm not vouching for his bs, Indy. And I do not follow the guy. Do you understand that? Is that a hard concept for you? So his entire thread is 'not legitimate' and made up, got it.
You are getting all up in your feelings, Nodack. I didn't claim that Lez luTHORS of the world are telling the real story. I even claimed that when I posted it. I didn't have to backtrack on that.Nodack wrote: ↑Thu Mar 10, 2022 10:17 amEverything you post in the politics threads is either pro-Trump, pro-Russia, anti-Dem or anti-US government. You claim all of the mainstream media is fake and the Lez luTHORS of the world are telling the real story. When questioned about it you always say you aren’t pro-Trump, pro- Russia, anti-Dem or anti-US government and you don’t necessarily agree with anything you post.
THIS. Own that you spew nonsense and deflect when called on it. If you don't believe something you are posting, and aren't posting it specifically to dispel the point it is making, why bother? That would be like me posting a "The US faked the moon landing" youtube video and saying "I am not saying this is 100% true... but makes you think!" then when questioned why I believe that bullshit I say I don't and just posted it to share other views. It is BS and just admit it. Don't post bullshit unless you believe it, or are posting it to refute it.Nodack wrote: ↑Thu Mar 10, 2022 10:26 amLike I said, anything you post is going to be either pro-Trump, pro-Russia, anti-Dem or anti-US government and when questioned about it you will claim you don’t necessarily agree with what you post. That doesn’t stop you from ONLY posting either pro-Trump, pro-Russia, anti-Dem or anti-US government posts. I am ok with it. Just own it instead of playing your shell game.
Fair enough, I see your point. This isn't the moon landing, which happened 50 yrs ago though. We are in very short supply of footage from the ground in Kyiv, so I thought it was interesting.Indy wrote: ↑Thu Mar 10, 2022 10:36 amTHIS. Own that you spew nonsense and deflect when called on it.

It was meant to show that your bias towards believing all of the anti-US, Pro-Trump/Putin stuff is meaningful and has a chance to be true.It wasn't meant to upset you.

I haven't done much reading about the MiGs. I thought the issue was that we couldn't deliver them without flying over hostile airspace, and that could be viewed as an act of war? Or is it that we didn't want to get our hands dirty by touching the jets ourselves? Or is the problem that they're MiGs, which are the same kind of jets the Russians are using, which would make it confusing to know who is friend vs foe? Etc. I'll do some more reading today.In2ition wrote: ↑Thu Mar 10, 2022 11:32 amI appreciate that he hasn't gotten into WWIII. I was worried that he would. So, Good Job, Joey!
I do believe that Poland was willing to give Ukraine jet fighters, but wanted the US to deliver them. Biden said, "Nah, we don't want to deliver them and provoke a response."
I don't appreciate his people gaslighting everyone though.
I believe that they are getting attacked. I am not disputing that. I dispute things when I think they are BS, and it's usually individual things that are shown to be false. It just makes me wonder why they would do that, when it's clear that the truth would still have the world on their side.Mori Chu wrote: ↑Thu Mar 10, 2022 11:41 amI believe that they are getting attacked.

My understanding is that the MiGs are actually what the Ukrainian pilots are used to flying, so it makes sense that they would get them. I believe that their call signs, and the radar knows where each of the friends are and anything else is unfriendly, so I'm not sure that would be something that they are worried about. I think flying them over to Ukraine could be considered a hostile act, by whatever country sent them. In the US case, it would come from a US base, and be blamed on the US.Mori Chu wrote: ↑Thu Mar 10, 2022 11:49 amI haven't done much reading about the MiGs.

I do get the sense that the conservative media is eagerly searching for a "Joe Biden is screwing up Ukraine/Russia" angle, and mostly they are failing to find one since Biden is doing a pretty good job handling the situation overall. But they're currently drooling over the possibility that this MiG thing could be the "screw up" they've been searching for. My guess is that it isn't, but I don't know for sure yet.
