“People think, increasingly it appears, that we shouldn’t be doing this. Well, let me start by saying we haven’t lost a single American in this war,” McConnell said. “Most of the money that we spend related to Ukraine is actually spent in the US, replenishing weapons, more modern weapons. So it’s actually employing people here and improving our own military for what may lie ahead.”

It's really sad when the Russian shills are so good that you can't even think of a rebuttal

Oof.

That's an unwarranted assumption. It's perfectly possible that they are already familiar with your arguments and are uninterested in relitigating the issue with idiots. Certainly that would be my position.

Your only mistake was to respond instead of blocking them.

[–] Redcat@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago

Tfw they are so right you gotta block them at first sight.

lol like I'd waste my time.

God forbid you organize your thoughts to the point they're coherent. Then you could just have a copypasta ready to go. But for some reason you can't even find one someone else wrote for you.

you're posting on lemmy, its all a waste of time

maybe the fedposting only pays for the initial derailing post attempt, not the followup quarter-assed defense of "international rules-based order" that exposes the ignorance and unfamiliarity with material reality.

The agent is forbidden from reading any response, otherwise he might develop a conscience or worse, self awareness.

Say something about the article for christs sake. This doesn't help your image the way you think

[–] BigNote@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

Why would anyone give a fuck about their "image" on an anonymous Internet forum? Honest question.

[–] SootyChimney@hexbear.net 17 points 1 year ago

I'm supposed to be paid for this???

[–] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago

How do you say "ruskie" and not feel like a loser? Do you know what decade it is?
