Anyone that disagrees with the US government is spouting Kremlin propaganda. Riiiiight…

I mean, if you take what I said and completely change it, I can see why you might be upset at that. Though I would encourage you to reply to what I actually said.

You are a joke.

I am indeed a very funny guy, it's a bit creepy that you know that though.

There should be a bot that posts this link whenever the phrase "kremlin propaganda" is mentioned. Maybe then you'll learn.

goes on an anti-tankie post Comments that his posts are always dogpilled by the most anti-tankie group. Claims ad hominem when someone points it out.

Is it wrong to engage in a conversation with people we disagree with?

Would you rather have us segregate based on our opinions?

I merely posited that you might be getting into arguments because you have drank the Kremlin propaganda, but from your posts I see it's more that youblike to defend the Chinese for some reason.

also I am not sure you ubderstand what ad hominem is, it's attacking the person saying it rather what the person is saying, if I were to say "you are spouting Kremlin propaganda" would be the exact opposite since I would be "attacking" what you are saying not who you are.

hope that helps

A lot of americans and some other westerners always assume that anyone who disagrees with them must be infected with Russian/Chinese/(insert bogeyman) propaganda.

Whereas the truth is that the Western civilization is on a murder spree and the rest of us who are not Westerners are disgusted by it.
