I think that focusing on the tangential issues takes away from the real important issue. This war ****ing sucks huge giant ****ing dog dicks, it is being fought because of an ******* dictator trying to dominate a society who wants freedom, and a propaganda war defending the action is alive and active. I don't understand people who aid that propaganda war by diluting the issue. I'm not the right guy to pick up a rifle and fly to eastern Europe, but I'm damn sure not going to help Russias propaganda war by complaining about issues that are not nearly important as the bull**** killing that is happening now.
You don't get the irony here, do you? You're accusing people of aiding Putin's propaganda by questioning some of the bullsh/t that the Biden admin & MSM are throwing out. Because Russian invaded Ukraine we can't bring up anything that isn't a direct counter to Putin? We can't talk about other issues? It's laughable.


I guess, if the lies of MSM and Biden are more important to you than dead Uke kids and citizens, maybe you have a point.

I Stumbled upon this video from march 15th and wasn't sure where to post it. This thread is all over the place but lots of focus on propaganda, so this may give an interesting take to this discussion. Listen carefully to Lara Logan.

I love how Lara Logan is raw and straight forward when she reports. I' remember when she was with 60 minutes and captured and tortured in Afghanistan, and how she broke stories no one would cover.

I also love how ex fox Anchor Ed Henry keeps trying to interject and spin what she's saying and just look at the dumbfounded look on the face of Karyn Turk, mouth agape starring at her monitor like WTF did I just hear. I found this interview fascinating.

I'm sure the producers were having an aneurysm watching this unfold on live TV. I'm curious to how long will it be before Youtube takes this down. But the content Lara Logan is bringing is a 180 from what you're hearing from all other sources.








The original Broadcast is here Logan segment starts at the 9:00 mark

Does it really? Let's be honest, no one here really cares, including me...unless you have family in Ukraine or something. I only care to the extent it may affect me or my family's daily life or finances. Which, it shouldn't at all...but we have put ourselves in a position where it likely will because we are run by absolute f-ing idiots.

This war doesn't suck...the last few decades of war did. If you stop watching the news or following the noise on social media, this war isn't happening.

I think it's funny how many people pretend to care because it scores them virtue signaling points or attention. We are facing possible collapse over the next few years if we do not get our sh** together...but let's obsess over some soft core cake ass "war" between two 2nd rate countries on the other side of the globe.


Walter Sobchak would say... "fing nihilists".

Under this line of thinking, I should have zero care if someone broke into your home tomorrow, shot you in the head, and the raped your wife and any children you might have. It would have zero impact on my day tomorrow. I would go to work, live my life, and maybe think, poor little boo boo and his kids. Whatever. Not my problem.

But it is my problem. I would be out for blood. Because I am a human fing being, and that would not be ok.

This isn't some kind of virtue signal. Murder is wrong. We are not mad at Putin because he wants people to wear a mask. He isn't charging people more money for non green energy. He isn't trying to keep you from investing in tobacco companies.

He is launching missiles into apartment buildings.

There is such a thing as evil. Evil is not Globalist, leftist, trumpist, elitest, or political. Evil is evil.

I don't tolerate evil.

Feel free to disagree. Best of luck to you on that island, buddy. I hope no one thinks your wife is pretty enough to murder you over.


I don't tolerate evil either. And this war still doesn't really concern me. If I consumed myself with all of the evil throughout the world…the war, the genocide, the slavery, the sex slavery etc etc I'd be a pretty miserable person. Especially when I am powerless to stop it. This war is just the popular thing to focus on right now, I get it. I am just far more worried about our own future in the near term.

Also, as bad as Russia is, China is far more evil and more of a threat to us and hardly anyone even realizes it.

You do realize that this isn't even the worst war that's going on at this moment, right?

And that there's ongoing genocides?

And currently millions not just under threat of living under a less free government but in literal slavery?

And that a significant number of those 20yo Russians are dying for their participation in Putin's aggression?


None of this make excuses for it - but I'm getting nervous about where my fellow Americans are letting their emotions take their minds. "This is horrible and Putin is evil!" > "Someone needs to do something!"> "A no-fly zone is good!" > "Russia killed our pilot?! We need to teach them a lesson!" > US war with Russia


You sound knowledgeable.

1) which wars going on right now are worse?
2) which country has had more murders than Ukraine in the last month. Bogey on China and Ulghers. That sucks. Everyone hates it. Should we nuke China?
3) which country has literally millions of slaves? Looking for two million literal slaves. In one country.
Are you not arguing against yourself here? Based on your stance on Ukraine, your own answer to 2) is "Yes", or at least to fight China.

So when are you going to call for us to directly intervene in China and help the Ughyers?

Someone being a threat is always something to be concerned about, but when someone else is intentionally causing war, murder, rape, etc., the first guy doesn't get the same level of concern as before. Like with everything, China as the main threat got pushed a little back when Putin started his war. Had he not the other things would seem as pressing as they did.

Again, not that everything else in the world isn't a cause for concern, but thanks to Putin, he's taken the spotlight right now. War tends to do that.

That will come once the msm starts pumping wall to wall coverage of China/Ughyers

He'll make a thread about how it shouldn't be politicized once he's been properly brainwashed…

Interesting life philosophy. Have you thought about applying for a job in the Russian communist party? Your concern about the well being of others should fit in well there.

I'm not the one who made the claim that the war in Ukraine is not that big of a deal.

It is.

The Ughyers is probably worse. If they lived in an independent country, we would probably have done the same thing as we are doing with Ukraine. Go ahead and pretend that this doesn't make a difference, but it does.

LOL. So someone admits they can't drive themselves crazy over all the evil in the world means they're communist? When you were little you probably wanted to adopt every stray dog or cat, right? This war, while evil, isn't even close to the biggest evil in the world right now.

Shelling apartment buildings should not be defended. Period.

Saying that we shouldn't be concerned with a government shelling apartment buildings because wokeness bad is stupid.

I am not aware of any other military shelling apartment buildings right now.

I guess what is most fascinating to me about this thread is how many people want to try to ignore Ukraine war just because MSM is advocating against it.

It just goes to show how deep the tribalism has become, and how well Soros has gotten into the heads of the right as well as the left.

You're projecting.

I've not read every post, but no one I've read is advocating that. Where were you at every other atrocity on the planet before February of this year?

This happens when democrats are elected. We have lost and maybe forever our position in the world as being fair, honest and strong. Not to tolerate world bullies. Pop them with technology, covert action etc. Just look what has happened in Mexico and we are helping fuel the demise of Mexico. The drug lords are running Mexico .

For example. How can we tolerate a nation that is fueling drug flow into our country and killing Americans ? Now do not give me any lip about our addiction. The addiction process is through youth being trapped early. Just like their values in their youth. Our young people just make bad decisions on many fronts.
