    “It is with great reluctance that I have agreed to this calling. I love democracy… I love the Republic. The power you give me I will lay down when this crisis has abated. And as my first act with this new authority, I will create a Grand Army of the Republic to counter the increasing threats of the Separatists.”

      Oh are they doing the “Ukrainians were the real fascists all along” propaganda bit? Pretty weak sauce when Russia is glidebombing apartments and Ukraine keeps it to military targets

        The narrative these puppets use to counter that is that Ukraine is bombing itself to make Russia look bad.

        I wish I was making this up.

        I was just advocating for democracy in a sea of people doing the opposite.

            Well, it’s a reference that you’re apparently missing. I suppose I could make a more direct, nuanced comment, but I’ve learned that this circlejerk of a community has no patience for substance or actual discourse.

              You expect to have a good quality discourse after starting with a silly movie reference? And then ranting about circlejerks?

              We have a saying, translates to something like “the forest replies in the similar manner as you yell into it.” Perhaps try to say something of substance and make sense, that might help.
