  • You do realise that the whole point of the United Nations is so that things like that this don’t happen anymore.

    No? The point of the UN is to stop actual wars, not what the UK is trying to describe as war, which are things that the west has been consistently doing for the entire lifetime of the UN.

    So how can we not be at war with an entity so fundamentally untrustworthy.

    Because a lot of countries are fundamentally untrustworthy? Including all of the ones who are signed onto the Rome Statute who are still supporting Israel. Which includes the UK. If you really want to redefine terms so that any untrustworthy country is inherently at war, then the UK is at war with the entire world.

    You are complaining that the West is at war with Russia

    No, I’m pointing out that the West isn’t at war with Russia, and it’s an Orwellian abuse of language to say they are.

    that’s because Russia is constantly breaking the rules

    There is no rule that Russia has broken that the west, especially the UK, hasn’t repeatedly and flagrantly violated both in the past and currently.

    Your problem is that you’ve already decided who is right and who is wrong and you’re not going to allow anything like reality to get in the way of that.

    Wrong. Nothing I have said implies that; I’m guessing this is a go to straw-man you go to, but it most certainly doesn’t apply to me. If anything, it sounds like you’re projecting; you’ve already decided whos wrong and that’s why you’re not actually reading or responding to what I’m saying.

    Yeah, I was subject to the same heavy propaganda you were, only difference is that I was mindful enough of it to not let it get me to the point of saying absurd nonsense like what you said.

    Also, you can’t really do the whole “I know I’m also not immune to propaganda” thing when you were just mindlessly regurgitating it to explicitly defend the British state propaganda network.
