No but people who repeat Russian propaganda tend to be either Russian or paid bots.

Prove that I'm "repeating Russian propaganda", and then prove that "people who repeat Russian propaganda tend to be either Russian or paid bots."

Because both of those claims are bullshit.

Prove that I'm "repeating Russian propaganda",

You're denying the claim that Russia helped Trump get elected and are spreading fascism throughout the world via the internet.

and then prove that "people who repeat Russian propaganda tend to be either Russian or paid bots."

I'm not sure how to prove that? But like I said, Trump supporters repeat a lot of Russian propaganda. Marxists, too. It's sad really.

Which one are you?

You’re denying the claim that Russia helped Trump get elected and are spreading fascism throughout the world via the internet.

Prove that denying that claim is "Russian Propaganda"

I’m not sure how to prove that?

Then you shouldn't have made the claim then, should you?

But like I said, Trump supporters repeat a lot of Russian propaganda.

Prove it.

Marxists, too.

Lol, you really are a Nazi. But seriously, prove it.

[–] yucandu@lemmy.world -2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Why did me saying "Marxists often repeat Russian propaganda" make you call me a "Nazi"?

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Lol, still waiting on your actual evidence for any of those claims, Nazi.

[–] yucandu@lemmy.world -2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Is that all you do is just say "that's not evidence", misuse logical fallacies while engaging in them yourself, and call people names?

Don't they teach you how to actually argue a point?

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml -1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Wow, look at that, you still can't province actual evidence, so you're going to have a cry and being asked.

Don’t they teach you how to actually argue a point?

Do you think making baseless assertions and then crying when asked to prove them is "actually arguing a point"?

Do you think making baseless assertions and then crying

Isn't that what you're doing?

Making baseless assertions like calling me a nazi? Crying "Nazi" in every single reply to me?

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml -3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Isn’t that what you’re doing?

No, I'm not the one claiming that the Ruskies and the inscrutable orientals are poluting our precious bodily fluids. That's you.

Making baseless assertions like calling me a nazi?

Baseless? The basis is that you're engaging in Nazi conspiracy theory.

[–] yucandu@lemmy.world 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

orientals

Ah, so you're a racist too. That makes sense, you were projecting with all the "Nazi" claims, weren't you?

The basis is that you're engaging in Nazi conspiracy theory.

Meaning the conspiracy that you're a Nazi?

Lol. I see you're back to feigning illiteracy.
