Even look at the wording crazy pills, war effort, not genocide.

Can someone help me out with a spoiler here? It’s pretty horrible and I don’t know how to do it.

LOL

So just to recap ferball 's positions;

1) The Americans are actually responsible for Yanukovych, the pro-Russian puppet, being elected President.
2) He wasn't pro-Russian anyway.
3) Free trade is bad.
4) Because Ukraine is not one homogenous voting bloc, the will of the majority doesn't matter.
5) Russia and Ukraine signing a lease for Russia's Black Sea naval base is also somehow the fault of America.
6) Ukraine has no claim over Crimea anyway because the USSR ceded it to Ukraine 71 years ago, so Russia is within their rights to take it back.
7) Crimea used to be part of Russia in the middle ages therefore it should always be Russian (I guess the Byzantine, Roman, Mongol, and Khazanite empires don't apply though?).
8) Crimea wanted to be independent but weren't successful but therefore it's okay that Russia annexed them because... reasons?
9) Israel is "more expansionist" than Russia despite Russia taking over geographical territory that dwarfs the entirety of Israel, Palestine, Southern Syria and Lebanon, and has a population greater than the entirety of Israel again. But those expansionist land grabs don't count, obviously

Hahahahahaha.

You lied about why Crimea shouldn't be independent. Literally made it up like an first year uni student trying to bluff their way thru a paper at 4.30 on the day its due. You'd make a good politician Chad.

You are an unserious person, ferball. I can't put it more succinctly than that. Your positions are laughably pro-Russian and yet you sit there and deny your tankie identity. It's hilarious.

Tankie the new orc is it?

So are you telling me that the Democrat President declined to put conditions on arms sales to Israel that may have helped lessen or end the genocide in Gaza?

Gee ... how did Val get it so wrong?

There were Greek then eventually Italian trading colonies on parts of the Crimean coast.

 

[ferball]

This a bit weird isn't it.

He barricks for the Democrats like they’re a sports team, though I’m not sure he’d go tout on the Dems like he did North.

Weird? It’s ****ing wild.

If you really don't know the US recently bombed the capital of Yemen. I can't remember what its called.

Yeah. Remember They’ve been gearing up along the border for a few weeks now since Saudi gave the green light.

The stuff about the covered up war crime might actually be legit.

1) I thought it was common knowledge..

Weird? It’s ****ing wild.

Has you seen his linked in profile?

Nah. I’m away at the moment so can only jump on every now and then.

What do you recon about a special forces guy go to for explosives is fireworks and gasoline…

 

[ferball]

Yeah. Who knows. I saw a screenshot of his alleged linked in profile and he was a member of a US special froces team then he led one. They have a history of that sort of thing.

If this is as its being presented - a suicide in a Musk Vehicle outside a Trump building with the stuff he said and his history -its ... well its a pretty anti MAGA thing I reckon.

How would you know?

Tankie the new orc is it?

Nah you've just exposed your true allegiances these last couple of weeks more than before.

Previously your ineffective arguments were more "oh I'm just anti-war and anti-imperialist" than "I straight up support Russia".

But now that has changed, and the tankie term applies heavily.

Scallop Industry Thug you tell me if this shoe fits ferball or not;

The main distinction between "Tankies" and other leftists is they believe in things that nobody else on the left would find justifiable if done by a non-socialist nation, and commonly have the same reactionary politics those on the right are derided for.

...

This mindless dislike of western governments is a common trend among Tankies. Of course, all consistent leftists should be very critical of the west, nobody is denying that, but Tankies are infamous for their willingness to support anybody and everybody who serves as a geopolitical foe for western nations.

It’s odd. I think he had some sort of psychosis. Even using a truck that’s bulletproof doesn’t make much sense.

The drones seemed to have been the tipping point.

Allegedly one of the notes he left said he wanted to make a spectacle to draw peoples attention to how ****ed up things were. Which maybe makes sense if he really didn't want to kill anyone else but wanted a story.

Thats what news.com reckon anyway ... so its probably bullshit given the source. But they did hook me in with one an absolutely hilarious opening line to their article:

The man who shot himself and then blew up a Tesla Cybertruck outside a Trump hotel in Las Vegas claimed his actions were intended as a “wake up call”.

Like he shot himself first, then blew up the car then they interviewed him and asked him "Why?"

Green beret? I didn’t pay much attention to it until I listened to bits of Shawns podcast.

Definitely got Shawn spooked, he’s gone into hiding. Probably from other nutcases and not the government, he’s in contact with the government, or the fbi more specifically.

He did shoot himself in the head. Must’ve had a delayed detonator or something.

Im only new as a proper read of this thread, and to be honest, has ferball ever claimed to be a lefty?

All I see from this crew is various shades of conspiracism, susceptibility to misinformation, and a fairly willing embrace of authoritarianism.

Yes, multiple times.

Although his definitions of lefty are amusing.

Your vision is spot-on.
