Yeah, but what do you think about it. Like honestly without sugar coating anything?

Anyone got any proof of the people cheering for Putin? I've poked around and other than claims from leftist outlets like that, I'm not seeing actual evidence. Even the Trump quotes are grossly taken out of context. Calling someone's tactics "genius" isn't supporting them - simply saying he's being crafty. https://nypost.com/2022/03/16/trump...ine/?msclkid=8441a26fa58511ec8331fdf36a266109
The event Marjorie Taylor Greene attended is being labeled a "white nationalist" event, but I'm not fully convinced of that either. A lot of smearing going on. But I do see several black speakers and entertainers at the event. Asian and Hispanic as well. Definitely not your grandfather's KKK I guess... https://heartlanddailynews.com/2022...gop/?msclkid=99d3f492a58311ecb7deb7ed7647006b
Even the quotes I'm seeing from Tucker Carlson are from 2019 - so context clearly isn't the same.
This line of thinking just doesn't make sense. The right and the far right have always hated Russia and China - Communist and socialist regimes in general (unlike the left who has idolized them - Bernie Sanders honeymooning in Russia. and the constant praising of Mao, Castro, and Che for example). Reagan is the Right's hero. Anything that smells like Marxism or neo-marxism (BLM, Antifa, far left in general, CRT, etc) is the enemy. This idea that they are pro-Russia all of the sudden just doesn't add up.

I only got a week ban from this thread for attacking someone on this forum and then being a brat to the admins about it, so you should only get a 24 hour temp-ban, if ANYTHING
Gave ya time to work on your thesis though, so not all bad

I agree that it's unbelievable. The rest of the article indicated that Mr. Fuentes was a white supremacist of sorts yet has a Hispanic name. I don't know what to believe anymore. I find it hard to believe anybody would do that in the light of day.
Russian bots and state sponsored actors are no doubt involved here.
In all, pro-Russian narratives on English-language social media, cable TV, and print and online outlets soared 2,580 percent in the past week compared to the first week of February, according to an analysis by the media insights company Zignal Labs. Those mentions cropped up 5,740 times in the past week, up from 214 in the first week of February, Zignal said.
The narratives have flourished in dozens of Telegram channels, Facebook groups and pages and thousands of tweets, according to The Times’s review. Some of the Telegram channels have more than 160,000 subscribers, while the Facebook groups and pages have up to 1.9 million followers.

Surely you've responded to the U.S. census at some point and noticed that "white" as race is divided into "Hispanic" and "non-Hispanic" ethnicities...
fully support attacks on (non forum members) that lying, traitorous Fox weasel...if ever a face was made for punching...
Serious, the quote from Tucker was the week before the invasion (22 February 2022) - look it up
Nick Fuetes, the organizer of the event, is a white nationalist who speaks favorably of Hitler and denies the Holocaust

Your last statement, is actually correct, it doesn't add up and has many mystified, including a staunch R. hawk, Liz Cheney

Douglas Macgregor said Russian forces had initially been "too gentle" in Ukraine and called President Volodymyr Zelensky a "puppet."

Not sure why you find it unbelievable, but since you doubt (I don't link this lightly, or with any pleasure, but since you need proof that this actually happens in the light of day):
Sad, but true, or maybe he's just a crisis actor.
Is he a member of the Crisis Actors Union ?
They must have one, as there's so many of them
I don't have answers, I'm just asking questions.

OK here is just one example of FB comments I’m talking about. I’ve seen so many of these now I just ignore them…..
One of my friends posted this on his FB page as a show of solidarity with Ukraine:
And this is what came back at him, again, just one small example …
Get the picture now? And this sentiment is all over the place. Literally word for word repeating Putin’s playbook. I’ve seen too many comments like this to count now.

I have not noticed that. Frankly I can't recall the last time I've filled one out.
Jesus, it makes me think I need to get out more but then I also think probably not, I'm good. I mean I'm missing the census and the awareness of gatherings like this. Yeah, I'm good.
