    More than one of these people, I have asked: Okay, what sources would you trust? What isn’t all just CIA or Western lies?

    They really didn’t want to answer the question, and reacted to it with quite a bit of hostility (which I think was tactically a good idea, if they’re trying to “win” the conversation for the side they’ve chosen to support, because it doesn’t take a genius to see where I’m going with the next steps.)

    But sure, I’m the victim of propaganda. If only I knew the truth, I wouldn’t be so ignorant.

      I get a shit-eating grin across my face every time I see one of these chucklefucks backed into a corner like that. They always either respond with something like “no u”, “fuck you”, or both, and then yeet themselves out of the conversation.
