You just love muddling the waters, don't you? Everything you don't like are misinfornation and conspiracy theories, my friend. I have posted 0 conspiracies instead you posted many verifiabily false things throught out this conversation, such as: the idea that there are no international polls showing Crimea wanted to become part of Russia which is unequivocally false. And others. Please read a book or watch a video or something, I'm begging you. Taiwan was independent, then colonized by both Qing Dynasty and Japan, and since 1895 it was under Japanese control until the end of WW2 when it was controlled by ROC (not to be confused with PRC). Taiwan was never part of PRC. How do you become "independent" from something you were never part of in the first place. The reason why the West withdrew ROC recognition is because of One China Policy to appease PRC. It's as if North Korea was powerful enough to bully the world into recognizing it as the only korea. That's exactly the situation with PRC-ROC conflict. Go read on it. As a genuine friendly advice, stop with the false analogies. I know that's a big thing in the contrarian/conspiratorial spheres, but there are MAJOR differences between Kosovo, Crimea and Taiwan. You can't throw them all in the mix for a quick "gotcha" argument. It's fallacious. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but Murica doesn't recognize Taiwan as independent formally. Why? 12 minutes ago, Dennis said: As a genuine friendly advice, stop with the false analogies.

The only difference is what you gain from supporting either of them, hence the ''nuanced'' view that you have on some issues and the clear-cut that you have on others. And a quick note: I will start reporting your posts if you continue with the derogatory and unfounded claim that I spread conspiracy theories when you are the one who intentionally or unintentionally spreads disinformation that fits your agenda. You do not get to call conspiracy theory every truth that you don't like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FfFfFfFF 58,343 Posted December 26, 2022 Author Share Posted December 26, 2022 In comments Monday, Ukrainian Air Force spokesperson Yurii Ihnat did not claim direct responsibility for the drone, but did suggest the attack was the “consequence of what Russia is doing.” “If the Russians thought that the war would not affect anyone in the deep rear (of Russia) or anywhere else, they were deeply mistaken. Therefore, as we see, such things are happening more and more often, and let’s hope that this will only benefit Ukraine,” said Ihnat. Source Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have many threads about the Russian strikes inside Ukraine. The average Westerner also doesn't know of the Ukrainian strikes in Donbas from before the war: the Westener then goes full circle and becomes like the Z Russians that think their country did nothing wrong and NATO is just plotting to destroy their country without a reason. Just a word of moderation and sanity to keep in mind: while two sides don't have equal fault in a conflict, propaganda is always two sided. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
