What you call "reply with a wall of text and deflections" is 90% of the time well informed and sourced discourse, you just dismiss it cause you can't argue with it.

I don't have the time for the classic tankie "reply with a wall of text and deflections"

This is literally a deflection to avoid dealing with the (inconvenient) basic facts you should've learned before having any opinion on this topic in the first place.

jokey one-liners: you have no arguments

well-reasoned point: I'm not reading all that, I have a job

I don't have the time for the classic tankie "reply with a wall of text and deflections", I actually have a real job to attend to. But some main points.

This whole "unlike you tAnKiEs I have a job" thing just makes you look insecure and childish.

You know that, right?

Do you also know that Russia took Sevastopol from Ukraine back in 2014?

Yes? Because the Black Sea Fleet is station in Sevastopol and Sevastopol is a vital strategic resource? Are we speaking the same language?

Tell me, do you also support Israel's claims on Palestinian territory?

Non-sequitor?

Do you know what the causis belli for the US's invasion of Iraq was? Are you stupid enough to believe that one as well? Or does believing causus belli only applies to whatever country is not an ally of the US?

... Okay so you know that UA was shelling Donbass and killing people for years, and the Rada was very openly hostile to the Russian speaking Ukrainian minority, right?

I know you should get a gold medal on mental gymnastics and double standards.

Could I get a sticker instead?

Also that's not a wall of text you dork it's like 10 sentences.
