    No, you're the one missing the point...exactly how and by whom was that supposed "90%" tabulated and verified by?...either produce something tangible, or let it go.

    So you're no going to divulge your sources/"playbook"?

    Dude, do it yourself. You can’t just demand everyone do research and provide citations for you. This isn’t an assignment and you aren’t the teacher. If you insist information is false the impetus is on YOU to prove that information wrong. You are just being lazy, sitting back and expecting others to feed you information until you’re satisfied. Do the work yourself and actually engage instead of simply disagreeing and insulting.

    My personal opinions don’t require a source. Was there some certain piece of data you take exception with? You’re welcome to prove it wrong if so.

    Either he's trolling, or this conversation is beyond his ability to comprehend. I don't know how this person could have finished HS and yet not understand sourcing. According to his logic, if I were to post the official election results of 2020, he could ignore it because it comes from "sportstwo message board".

    By "you people", do you mean all non-Slavic people?

    And FYI, since you keep
    lol...you have shown nothing but false bravado...while myself and others have presented facts but you simply and arbitrarily dismiss them by respond that it's from a certain mythical "playbook" and when asked for you to quantify your own stance/playbook, you balk. And you are then one who's constantly made statements without anything tangible to support them.

    Blind opinions are not very compelling, not at all.

    And I DID try to verify it but could not find anything to support it...but thanks for assuming.

    And who did I supposedly insult?

    No, I mean those in this thread that keep side-stepping the point with nonsensical cop-outs.

    This is a ridiculous denial of reality talking point. The group of people that consistently show up dressed in black and commit all forms of violence and mayhem, and call themselves Antifa, have meetings, put out publications, plan their events etc. And your argument is that they don't exist? I mean what the actual fuck.

    What is in the water????

    Where is this supposed "nonsensical" cop out?...and why do you keep going back to 2010-2014...what the hell does that have to do with today?

    Do you have any idea how many US elections have been won by a EC total of 90% or more?

    He can explain it for you, but he cannot understand it for you.

    The fact that you resort to this proves you know you have no real argument. That is the official data from the Ukrainian government for the 2014 election. The source is listed right there on the damn graphic. Same data cited in Forbes.

    Posted after Ukraine over night struck and disabled a russian tanker, using a sea surface drone. BTW the tanker was under USA sanctions for providing jet fuel to Syria.
    @DefenceUkraine

    Since 1991, russia has systematically used the territorial waters of Ukraine to organize armed aggressions: against the Georgian people and against the people of Syria. Today, they terrorize peaceful Ukrainian cities and destroy grain condemning hundreds of millions to starvation. It's time to say to the russian killers, "It’s enough." There are no more safe waters or peaceful harbors for you in the Black and Azov Seas.

    Wow...it's about time.

    ALL of those areas are within the country of UKRAINE...and just as with the US, we have multiple differences in demographics, theologies, beliefs, etc.,but we are still ALL part of the country of the US...there have been many states that have wanted to or tried to secede form the US over the years but have not. Sorry, but just because one area of a country may speak differently or view things differently doesn't mean that country should be fragmented into different nations.

    ...that's not how elections are supposed to work, at least not in Republics.
