    zelensky himself could do a press conference where he just says “i think we’re fucked lads” and these libs will say it’s a secret kremlin plot

      It’s simply breathtaking to watch the meltdown of people who’ve spent three years guzzling propaganda, when reality finally intrudes into their bubble.

        i think it’s both breathtaking and frightening; SO MANY people across this planet have bought into the belief that the united states had nothing to do with this war despite so many articles, videos, news reports, etc. stating the exact opposite makes it clear that people’s beliefs trumps reality.

          That’s by far the most frustrating aspect of the whole thing. It’s not like they were hiding this. You can literally read articles like this, published in mainstream press explaining in detail why the US wanted to have a proxy war with Russia. It’s all in the open, and yet we’re still having these struggle sessions with people adamantly denying that this is a proxy war.

            I wonder if this is a bit like how climate scientists feel; having a very large body of evidence clearly saying that climate change is upon us, yet we choose to disregard it anyways.

          Blargh! Please don’t use the T word if it’s not necessary. There are other words to substitute. That word should be shunned and thrown in the garbage!

              That’s a good 95% of all humans just look at climate change. People are still denying it’s real to this day when we’ve reached the 1.5 barrier 75 years to early.

                I was going to say something like this and I wonder if this is what climate scientists feel like when voters don’t bother w facts
