Thanks. That said, those peasants were armed and trained by US forces.

Notice how in my previous comments I denied that it's a generalised thing, not that it didn't happen occasionally. For sure a few tens, or even hundreds, of children have been sent illegally to Russia. Hell, tens of thousands of civilians have probably been murdered unlawfully in the war. My point isn't that sporadic small-scale crimes don't happen during wars, my point is that there's no evidence of generalised mass deportation of children in Ukraine by the Russian forces.

Also, bringing in children to speak their atrocity propaganda to the UN reeks of Nayirah's testimony

I happen to generally trust Germany because generally their information is accurate

I highly distrust information from Germany as someone who lived there for 3+ years. There's a reason why there's also a wave of fascism over there.

Tell me which "sources" would you trust?

Primary sources providing evidence. Appeal to authority isn't enough evidence for me, evidence is. I didn't need to trust any particular sources that there was an ongoing genocide in Gaza because I could simply open up my phone and have 100 new different videos from that very day of kids being bombed from a variety of journalist outlets from different countries and social media accounts.

I did specify Trump 2.0. It's not Trump, it's the entire Republican party that's gone mask off

For example Germany, is generally considered a trust worthy source of information

Speak for yourself, Germany's coverage of the genocide in palestine is atrocious and there wasn't one German media that didn't replicate the "ghost of Kiev" news. You happen to trust Germany because you have a pro-western bias, Germany's information is as shit as that of the US.

Trusting a government source without further evidence on information about geopolitically charged topics is insane.

an otherwise reputable source, during a war

Please explain to me how state propaganda is a reliable source during war

Not being able to verify = there is no shown proof

If the USSR couldn't defeat a bunch of peasants

What historical event are you referring to?

If the EU is smart — and not a bunch of capitalist oligarchies masquerading as "democracies" —

Finally it's dawning on the average western progressive

the US government is absolutely hostile

Ukraine should join NATO

Huh?

Agreed. Would you also agreed to the complete collapse of the genocidal empire of the USA?

now

Michael Parenti was saying this in the 70s and 80s though

OK, you get 4 more years of Biden 2.0, 2028 comes, what's the plan for the elections against Trump 2.0?
