I said demonisation not dehumanisation, but ultimately in a war situation it has the same effect.
I get it fine.
Believe what you want. Cleansing Ukraine of 'Nazi's/Fascists' has been the main rhetorical justification of Russia since this war began, from Putin down.
No I didn't. I choose my words carefully. Care implies an emotional investment, interest (in this context) implies an intellectual investment. I find it interesting and take a side but I don't really care, I'm not a Slav and I'm half a world away.
Because you're a shill just like Silverknight. You won't admit Russia has done anything wrong or poorly, and instead say everything is the fault of NATO/US. I agree the US was wrong to interfere in Ukraine and help overthrow the government in 2014, but that doesn't justify this Russian invasion, and this is a new Ukrainian govt anyway.
Spoiler!

That appears to be a common insult on here. I've been called autistic by a poster on here and I'm baffled why I would come across as autistic? Maybe people think everyone on here is autistic? I doubt Creoda is autistic and I'm definitely not autistic. There are autistic people on here because they've said they are. I don't know why people bandy that about as some sort of insult?

It’s ok to demonise Russians but not Israel

That doesn't mean kill regular civilians 'en masse.' It means to take out a specific element. It's you who is basically saying Putin & Co. think Ukrainians are all Nazi/Fascists.
Looks like I'm going to have to bust out the dictionary:No I didn't. I choose my words carefully. Care implies an emotional investment, interest (in this context) implies an intellectual investment. I find it interesting and take a side but I don't really care, I'm not a Slav and I'm half a world away.
care
to think that something is important and to feel interested in it or upset about it:
She's never cared very much about her appearance.
[ + question word ] I really don't care whether we go out or not.
I don't care how much it costs, just buy it.
"Was Lorna happy about the arrangements?" "I don't know and I don't care."
Your parents are only doing this because they care about (= love) you.

You just acknowledged here you brought up 'shills were wrong about a quick victory' as an attack on me and yet it doesn't apply to me. So your initial attack - indirect, of course, because bitches are indirect - was a fail.Because you're a shill just like Silverknight.
Dude, you don't even follow my posts. You just lump me in with other people - as I have shown above - and so what do you know what I have said? What examples do you have? Present them or shut the fuck up. I pointed out the Wagner group is used by Putin to get away with crimes by allowing for 'plausible deniability.' I've said Putin wasn't a good guy. But if I speak on military action, which you acknowledge you don't even follow, I'm a shill. For example, I pointed out Russia isn't interested in conquering Kyiv but rather splitting Ukrainian forces. This isn't a view that is my own but supported by a number of ex-military. To you, that would be shilling and not speaking ill of Russia's supposed setbacks but you don't know any better.You won't admit Russia has done anything wrong or poorly, and instead say everything is the fault of NATO/US.
For fuck's sake, I haven't seen you say anything negative about the US/NATO on this issue. I guess that makes you a shill for US/NATO because I haven't come across any posts that were negative.
Once again, check the link in my signature.I agree the US was wrong to interfere in Ukraine and help overthrow the government in 2014, but that doesn't justify this Russian invasion, and this is a new Ukrainian govt anyway.
A new Ukrainian government that was accepting 'defensive' missiles that can easily be converted for an offensive attack, was talking about joining NATO incessantly (was basically part of NATO except for the lack of NATO troops) as Russia has for the past two decades said, 'do not cross this line (imagine if China sent weapons to Mexico and the Mexican government kept talking about joining a pact with the Chinese; we would invade, as would be expected), and broke the Minsk Agreement days before the Russian invasion by shelling Donbas.
How much of the above did you know? It's a bit annoying being called a shill by someone who literally learned about the subject a couple of months ago. Tell me honestly: did you even know who Zelensky was prior to all this?

Demonizing enemies is an important part of christian culture Because of strict prohibition against wars in christian theology, "unless" the war is against "demons". Back than it was standard practise to demonize enemies, like pagans, muslims, Turks, "other christians" or "other churces in the same friction" whenever and whatever its needed. This is one of the most important reasons why theres so much hatred and secessions in europeans.

I actually do think Creoda is somewhat autistic and autists are clearly over represented in this forum. It's the nature of the forum.
What reinforced my view was when he got upset over a thread asking people to choose whether they want to be a Mena/Asian/SSA-influenced millionaire or a poor Hallstatt Nordid.
He got all twisted over a hypothetical ('it doesn't make any sense: you're the sum of your parents and environment, subversive, etc. I forget the rest but it was weird).
It's like if I brought up a hypothetical about pitching in major league baseball and someone said, "We'll you're not 6'1 or over so you wouldn't be pitching and you're on the east coast and so it would be difficult for you to even get the attention of scouts..."
The question isn't supposed to be taken that seriously.

Scott Ritter says he was killed by the Kraken Unit. I didn't particularly like the guy but it does sadden me. Not confirmed but Scott Ritter is always on point.

EDIT: correction. He's speaking of 'reports' of Lira's death by the Kraken Unit. He's not saying he's actually dead.
