    She didn’t say NATO and the US suck, she said they started it. You are either willfully misinterpreting this or are so disenfranchised from our current political climate that you’re ignoring serious red flags.

      She specifically said she this it’s wrong what Putin is doing, and this it’s against international law. You are either willfully misinterpreting this or are so disenfranchised from our current political climate that you’re ignoring serious red flags.

              No, I’m contacting the person spreading it on the Fediverse, you.

              So you don’t think certain types of news stories should be shared on the Fediverse then? So are you promoting censorship? Because you seem upset that I am posting news articles about third parties, but you are fine with the 1,000s of articles that are pro-Harris. Right?

              So you would prefer I only post news that YOU agree with. Correct?

                No, I think they should be shared without bias and you have a terrible track record just from the comments and posts I’ve seen of your’s. You’re the type of user to make an entire post about another user and then cut the parts out of your own wrongdoing, I saw that. So yeah, I have a problem with the way YOU present information to be biased towards your own opinion. You aren’t presenting information with the intent of sharing knowledge, you share things in a manipulative way that doesnt show the full details of the people you support.

                  Any bias you have is on you. I just shared an article. I didn’t write it.

                  You’re the type of user to make an entire post about another user and then cut the parts out of your own wrongdoing, I saw that.

                  Examples? My post history is public. The entire post history of this community is public. And the modlog is public as well. I haven’t hid anything from anyone.

                  So yeah, I have a problem with the way YOU present information to be biased towards your own opinion.

                  Then block me. All I do is post the news, I don’t write it. How you view it or the bias you inject into it is your problem, not mine. I literally posted a disclaimer when I posted the article, just so the talk wouldn’t fall into just talking about me. Not my problem if people can’t read the disclaimer.

                  If you believe any part of the article is inaccurate, I encourage you to reach out to the news organization that published it. If you think the article doesn’t align with the community guidelines, feel free to contact the moderators. Thank you!

                    You know that choosing to post something represents an active editorial choice though, right?

                    Your activity in the forum has become the topic of discussion. You can’t wave your hands and say “It’s not me, take it up with someone else”.

      • While I personally disagree with this stance in this particular case, I think it’s reasonable to say on the one hand, A did wrong and A was bad, while also pointing out that it takes two to tango and that maybe there were some things that B could have done better.

        So to recap, I agree with Stein on A (“It was wrong, it was a criminal act, it’s a violation of international law.”) but disagree with Stein on B (“this war has been ginned up by the US and NATO expansion towards Russian Territory.”)

        In fact, I’m quite bothered here as Ukraine joining NATO doesn’t involve Russian Territory unless Ukraine itself is Russian Territory, which I simply cannot agree with.
