I’m just showing these comments I saw earlier, which were interesting. Since it is true, that we’ve been hearing that “Russia is cornered”, since the invasion started. I personally just want this shit to end.

These comments are relating to an article from this week.

I wonder if we will ever know what truly happens on the ground (i.e. when it comes to casualties and many other things)

      I prefer the good ol

      PIGPOOPBALLS

      Over everything else, but sometimes the libs give you a nice tasty bait, one you just gotta nibble on and work hard to clean right off in front of everyone you know

      But genuinely, fine with discussing until someone obviously deserves a PPB, but until I see a slur or a knowing defense of fascism (I give temporary allowances to those who seem confused), I give my time to the posting wars

        The ppb is good when people are being smuglords or otherwise engaging in bad faith, but ppb shouldn’t be posted in response to people asking questions in earnest. We all learn something everyday, and we’re all susceptible to propaganda, so asking about conflicting data should be supported.
