LibsOfTiktok, on the right, was effective. They are, apparently, much better at motivating people than you are.

I don't get why you're comparing me to libs of tiktok. Do I look like I'm trying to be an influencer to you? O.o

Also, let's not pretend you don't just disagree with what is being said.

I think it's naive to take anything someone as biased as Selensky is saying at face value.

Nobody asks for sources until it's an issue somebody might pick up a sign over.

Lol, first day on the internet, I assume? xD /j

You're arguing with one. What do you think OP is doing?

as biased as Selensky

Ah, so you're not impartial. Funny how easy it was to figure that out.

How is stating that Selensky has a horse in this race a sign of not being impartial, exactly? O.o

Because you would care about the validity of the statements, you wouldn't be suggesting that Zelensky is a liar.

I can smell it on you, dude, like the breath of an alcoholic. Why are you pretending you don't know what this whole Ukraine thing is about? It's been world news for 3 years.

Are you serious? 🙄

Are you this dense that you don't get that politicians conducting a bloody war have a vested interest in maintaining a specific narrative?

Why the fuck do you start with this playground comic book logic bullshit? This is the real world, buddy.

No, certainly! Selensky senpai is definetly one of the good guys who would never lie to me uwu! The only liar is eeevil Mr Putin who is eeeevil, because he attacked poor Ukraine because he's eeevil! /s

And before you start: no I am not sympathetic to Putin, just because I don't buy the narrative of the evil russians. Trying to undertand the objective reasons why states act the way they do apparently means that you're a paid russian troll or whatever.
