  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Let me put on my logic cap.
How about you don't post stuff from a channel that posts nothing except pro-russian propaganda, and I will refrain from posting channels filled with pro-ukranian propaganda, like this:

I can find Ritter interviews all over the place.

How about you don't explore the rest of that particular channel and focus on the information presented by Ritter?

Let's stay focused here.

I don't have the time to debunk the prolefeed of a man who has made it a full time job to spread russian propaganda. Much like I don't have the time to debunk your posts.

taking of sovereign territory and ceding it to the aggressor in the name of peace?
I was talking about Russia, not Israel; but I think that sitting down and talking about a one state solution, where all of the indigenous people of that region could respect the Holy Land, and live in harmony, might be productive

Why would I? I'm not a Globalist. I believe in freedom, and fair weights and measures.
Context: reply to a statement not you nor yours.

ETA: My mistake: it was you.

I was talking about Russia, not Israel; but I think that sitting down and talking about a one state solution, where all of the indigenous people of that region could respect the Holy Land, and live in harmony, might be productive
I was also talking about Russia - I thought it was obvious. I did not bring up Israel, so why have you? Who exactly is "indigenous" in the Levant?

Then keep me out of it.
Sorry, it was you seeming to lament the decline of our hegemony:
Our global hegemony is falling.

So this statement of yours is celebrating the decline? I can't tell from your seemingly contradictory statements.

Context: Globalism is exploitive. BRICS has had enough of it.
Globalism doesn't have to be exploitive; we live in a global world. Global cooperation for global concerns is rational.

Tell propaganda and let's not mention the sexual involvement with children seems to be the choice picked rather.

BREAKING: Russia Destroys 80% of Kyiv’s Power Grid; Ukraine Braces for COMPLETE BLACKOUT

16K views 2 weeks ago​




There has been a slight change since last winter.
First the headline on the YT video doesn't match the actual content. It is 80% of the energy infrastructure has been *damaged* or destroyed. (It doesn't distinguish what kind of energy infrastructure, and not all 80% is "destroyed".) It does quite a reduction of electrical generation capacity to 50% of the pre-invasion level.

Second, most of rest is lines from a report about what might happen and what partial blackouts might be needed to distribute the available power throughout the country.

Third the whole video was nothing more than a few text-slides animated to lousy stock music. The whole thing could have been a 500-1000 word article.

Finally, looking at the rest of the Ukraine related content on this Indian YT channel, it leans pretty hard toward Russia. A lot of "rah rah Russia" short videos, etc.

I'd never heard of this channel, how did you find it

I haven't seen Denis in a while. At least he is an actual Ukrainian going over stuff on camera, rather than some automated narration.

He's still announcing Ukranian Victory after Ukranian Victory day after the day, no matter what's actually going on.

Isn't former and would be again President Trump more of a Neville than a Churchill? I mean in terms of accommodating the taking of sovereign territory and ceding it to the aggressor in the name of peace.
Neville Chamberlain gets a bad rap. At least he didn't seek to wage a total war which bankrupted his Empire.

Although it was Neville Chamberlain who can be blamed for pointlessly garunteeing Poland.

There you are putting me into it again. It doesn't matter what I feel. The reality remains the same.

Let's not redefine the word. The Globalists tactics are coercive and exploitive. They use coercion to gain cooperation.

BRICS nations have had enough, regardless of how I may feel about it.

There you are putting me into it again.
By quoting you and asking for clarification? I’m pretty sure that’s how discussions work, when they work. It’s more interesting than serial pontificating.

Ut doesn't matter what I feel. The reality remains the same.
Gosh, I realize that you rarely answer direct questions and trying to figure out what you mean by what you say can be a challenge.

Let's not redefine the word.
Which word, “globalist”? I don’t think I have redefined it but perhaps you mean it as the dog whistle term?

So that we are talking about the same thing, could you give your favored definition? I suspect that because I asked you will refuse, but I am hoping you will prove me wrong.

The Globalists tactics are coercive and exploitive. They use coercion to gain cooperation.
For you, it seems like the so-called Globalists have a hive mind with no variation between one and another.

BRICS nations have had enough, regardless of how I may feel about it.
Okay, so?

Actually, as I monitor news from around the world, I find that India, tends to lean more toward a Western bias. They did however recently refuse the US call to sensor RT in their own country. Maybe I'm just detached enough from succumbing to Western propaganda, that I can see it more clearly. If you monitor Indian News regularly; you will see that they regularly report on American politics, elections, and policies. With Russia, not so much.
