Of course not, but one brainwashed Twitter nutter quoting another brainwashed Twitter nutter a case does not make. It is clear many, many have been fallen for alt-right propaganda, some of which originates from or is carried by Russian media. You are my ‘exhibit A’ in this. ‘Pwned’ is the word that comes to mind.
Amir is about as far from a brainwashed Twitter nutter as you could possibly find! He was quoting one though, one who like many of you have fallen for the Russiagate conspiracy theory.
Quite what kind of alt-right propaganda you think I've fallen for I don't know. I am opposed to the alt-right. I'm left-wing.
The first thing any genuine left-winger should be opposed to is mindless war/state terrorism/massive human death and destruction like the Iraq war, Libya, Syria etc. Wars that delivered the Brexit result you're so upset about (understandably so).
This is why after my preferred choice of Bernie Sanders was out (we know why...) and the choice was between a murderous anti-Russian warmongering Neocon gangster-hag and a racist clown with an anti-intervention message and an expressed desire for better relations with Russia I preferred the latter, despite his other unsavoury policies.
You, though, have spent every waking day since trying to paint me as some kind of alt-righter, or brainwashed by the alt-right. You continue to do so now. That's fine. I'm not bothered anymore. I will let others judge my input here, its validity and what it says about me and the kind of person I am.
Again, please watch Adam Curtis’ Hypernormalisation, it highlights exactly the type of ‘fake news’ propaganda you fall for on a daily basis and highlights how actors like Putin and his oligarch class have a very long history of playing both sides against each other to create a chaos in which they thrive. You are part of that chaos. You mindlessly regurgitate ideas you found on social media, vanity blogs, Russia Today etc, often just cutting and pasting from one place to another, thinking what you are doing is “left-wing” but in reality you are merely enabling the alt-right oligarch class.
Think. Fact check. Cross reference. Don’t be such a sucker.
I watched Hypernormalisation a few days after you did and enjoyed it as a kind of art piece with a good soundtrack. I seen the part you refer to re Putin. Perhaps it's accurate, perhaps not. One thing I do know is that in terms of fake news propaganda and playing one side against another the US and its media is in a league of its own. As Caitlin Johnstone said it's no wonder people have to try to figure out what the truth is when it's so often obvious and often provably so that what the US government and its media wing say is totally at odds with reality.
You ask me to fact check when you since the minute it was mooted unquestioningly believed every single aspect of the Russiagate conspiracy!
You completely support the Neocon regime change in Syria and unquestioningly lap up every lie designed to blame it on the Syrian government. You completely ignore the aggressive anti-Russian actions of successive US governments like unilaterally tearing up the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty, moving NATO right up to Russia's border and overthrowing the elected Ukrainian government before placing a neo-Nazi in his stead.
Then when Putin is alleged to have done anything in defence of this, to counter in his own country's interests you blame it on Russian aggression.
To be honest Tony I think you're so entrenched into the US Oligarch/Neocon fake news anti-Russian narrative/warmongering agenda that it would take the sight of nuclear weapons in the Manchester sky before you'd finally question the wisdom of supporting this new Cold War and the psychopaths behind it.
I want people to challenge these bastards and their lies, propaganda and manipulation now, before it's too late.
