Having misspellings and typos is your concern...
Weird, but you do you.
FYI: You also edited your comment, but you did not mention the edit...
Also, being exposed to only Western propaganda is not the honor you seem to believe it is.
We can all come to certain conclusions without needing (your preferred boogeyman) making us a puppet, bot, or brainwashed.

I did edit it, but I didn't mistake Ukrainian for Uruguayan. I merely added some more content; how you can't cite a single Ukrainian or russian oligarch.
Confusing Pakistani and Palestinians is not a typo.
You clearly don't care about the Palestinians and are merely using them for your aesthetic purposes (extremely common among fake leftist Americans).
I am done here.
Thanks for the small chat!
We all get emotional; it is understandable. I hope we can unite on other topics.
Like fixing the systematic economic problem our societies face, that would be great.
All is well, Peace.
