But you clearly live in an alternative reality of propaganda that even after a short initial phase of cognitive dissonance upon the shock that you were completely wrong on the Russian attack, you just doubled down on licking the boot of imperialist Russia even harder.

What your refer to toeing the Kremlin propaganda line is the mere acknowledgement that Russia has legitimate security interests that NATO has been trampling over. This has now been openly admitted by mainstream western media thehill.com/opinion/5198022-ukraine-conflict-disinformation/

And I just love how you project here. Expecting that the cost of the war would not be worth it is not cognitive dissonance bud. Cognitive dissonance is literally what you yourself have been doing for the past 4 years while guzzling NATO propaganda with zero awareness. And when you're face with people who point out the obvious you lash out and accuse them of licking the boot of imperialists because that's what you yourself are doing. It's really pathetic dude. I sincerely hope your grow up one day.
