I find it funny the more people who believe in this, the better. Gives me the bigger laughs at the hypocrisy and how similar they are to the CTRL-Left. Who believed in anything CNN and Buzzfeed or democrats said against Trump. With no evidence whatsoever.

This is the same. They want to believe soooooo badly that Russia is justified and that this is true that they will believe on this no matter what. Even with no actual evidence.

So fucking cringe lol

But hey, I would desperately try to rebrand if I were a member of the tribe, too ;)

Setting all other things Jester aside, I actually do like ctrl-left. I hate that they call themselves 'progressive', as if they were progressing towards anything other than maximal degeneracy and decay. The ctrl-left label encapsulates their insane authoritarianism quite nicely to me.

Personally, I prefer to turn anything they like to call themselves into a slur. They hate being called progs.

I'd say around 2015-2017? Though I can't say I remember when I started and stopped seeing the phrase used.

In retrospect it was a term stuck firmly in Gamergate, hell, it's a phrase only GaMeRs would know. Something that was used when we thought the only enemies were gamejournos and the "vocal minority" of trigglypuffs (member that?) and SJWs.

It essentially applied to a miniscule subset of a much larger enemy (granted, we had no idea of the true scope of the enemy at the time) and that, combined with the phraseology only being relevant to a small group of tech-inclined online weirdos, meant it never could make that jump into the larger cultural conscience.

"Progress" is in the eye of the beholder and just means you want things your way. Crybabies.

But anyway it should be cmd-left since you know the far left all use macs.

Has the Tribe ever actually done anything other than to try to hide that theyre in the tribe. Why cant the just be open about what theyre up to? Would make people hate them less.

Because even those on the left find it cringe the crazy side. You are part of the problem.

Dude, you are becoming a lol-cow.

take a look into the origins of the virus we had to fight for the last 2 years. those details alone make such a thing happening again more and more likely. So to brush this off as 'CNN is wrong and so are the RUssians" is really simpleminded/

With how credible our medical officials are- this accusaton has more credibility, at the moment (and theres more evidence than the bat theory from 2y ago had, so far).

If you believe in Russians and not CNN, then that means you are a lol-cow.

Russians have lied over and over. Their track record for telling the truth is far, far, far worse than CNN. And yet, you choose to believe them?! Why?

dude, can you stop lol cowing for a sec? i stood up for you for months and im finding it hard to defend you with even attacking the ggers giving you benefits of the doubt for much of these dumb comments where youre mostly just attacking EVERYBODY.

sit back, and breath a few times, and think about the comments harder before you start yelling shitcockstormcuck lolcow at everyone.

I was calling you one because you disagreed this week when I said I thought you were being stupid AF and not a shill. take more time before you reply to people, and you wont get so many downvotes for all the opinions youre sharing.

RUssians lie 100% of the time? Democrats lie 100% of the time? which one is true?

Do you have examples for russians lying about wars more often than CNN lied about DrUmpF> cause cnn was lying just about every day, and you can SUPERSIZE that when you include the duration of hte pandemic.

they still lie about the maga protests, the trucker protest, the neonazis we send weapons to, and just about everything. So i will accept you comment- only if you SOURCE ru lying more than cnn.

Because I find being called a shill the most hilarious thing.

I am asking for evidence. Nothing that Russia has given is evidence of their claims. And no Russia doesn't lie 100% of the time nor does CNN. But you don't go and believe everything CNN says without evidence, do you? I am asking for evidence. Russia simply has given us some documents, no live samples, no DNA sample of gain of function or bioweaponized pathogens, and the documents are even suspect because it is all known information. Including the bat's research.

the more that comes out about what they've been doing on russia's doorstep, in our name, the more justified they look.

Right now, nothing I have seen shows even close to the claims they made. Heck, even China funds labs in Mexico. Can we then use that excuse to invade Mexico or Canada?

yes, absolutely. china is where all of the mexican cartels get their fentanyl from, so cutting the head off that snake would be a moral good.

canada is rightful american clay.

You do know I am referring to legal biolabs, government approved, where they do the same type of research Ukraine did and not the funding of cartels, right? And pretty bad, it sounds very warmongering.

Then, when Mexico is invaded like Ukraine, Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador also has biolabs funded by China. Will those two also become another state in America? More countries down in latin america also has those labs. Where would America stop?

on the standard of our foreign wars, yes, we can.

And where one would stop? In Chile or Argentina?

How would you control all those countries?

How would you start the war? First by claiming something and then, midway through pull a Russia and claim it was due to bioweapons funded by China?
