    You didn’t need to cite hitler as the cake lover, could have picked anyone else

    You didn’t have to pick the fascist mercenary army leader to agree with you on the other one, either. Yet you did for some reason

    Is this supposed to prove anything but you have no scruples?

      I mean hexbears are otherwise so willing to take Russian sources at face value, e.g. when it comes to claims about Russian speakers getting supposedly oppressed and genocided by the Ukrainian state… then why not trust Pregozhin? What makes him less trustworthy than Solovyov?

        I can’t speak for everyone, but I definitely don’t find Russian media particularly trustworthy, we like to do a little thing called critical thinking instead of just blindly accepting things

        Russian media is untrustworthy and I’ve yet to meet a hexbear user that says otherwise. We just also recognize American media to be untruswot. Good thing we’re able to critique our sources and think critically
