Well, in this thread, as it's been already pointed out, you've engaged in whataboutism to change the subject from russia to France. It's only a small step above a kid's "NO YOU!" level of argumentation.

Is France's imperialistic history deplorable? Yes. But by the end of the year they will have pulled out from all but 2 countries with which they had defense agreements, as opposed to russia which is increasing presence in the same countries, in addition to the countries in which it already had a presence. So it's actually russia that has potentially more troops in Africa, but I can't find actual numbers to confirm since it's in russia's best interest not to declare those.

So yeah, how can you compare a country that leaves when it's uninvited to russia which is actively shelling a sovereign nation on top of doing the same shit in Africa as all the other imperialists?

You. You're trying to change the subject from russia to France in order to defend an imperialistic country. Which is what you often do. You're in like every other thread that's criticizing russia or china

Have you got a source for that family killing bit? Can't find anything that talks about that. Tried both co-founders wiki pages, tried the hamas wiki page and also tried basic searching like 'hamas founder family killed" and got nothing.

You're upset that made up people in your head called this video a research project or something? Because the closest thing I could find to what you're complaining about is his YouTube channel's description where it says "friend of science".

He never claimed to be a scientist, doesn't claim to be doing scientific research. In his own words, he's just doing some tests on his own car. That's it.

Not saying getting 10 mil likes is easy, because it's not, but that ratio of likes to views is pretty low in your example. Mr beast has 30 mil likes for a video with 150 mil views, for example. (Which, in all fairness, has a much higher ratio than average, but still)
