Ukraine VII
in Feedback & Suggestions ·
By leaning on old arguments about border conflicts and those other massive, overly dramatic analogies, they’ve started priming their readers—specifically the Gipper crowd, the Clonville set, and the rest of that crew (if the Scotchman wants me to list the whole gang, I can do it easily, though I suspect he knows them just as well as you do)—to ensure that these five aggressors they keep pushing since the Crimea situation kicked off are just a continuation of the trolling that’s been carefully stoked for ages.
It fits perfectly with how Ante Gotovina is being used now, just to make it crystal clear—for anyone who hasn't caught on yet—exactly what kind of aggressive mob the poor Ukrainians have been dealing with for months.
Claiming there's a connection between that and the much more complex reality on the ground in Ukraine is something only someone on some heavy drugs would suggest.
I could easily spin a narrative where, say, some newcomer or Biden’s little helpers and their logistics fail, and then the aggressors win out. I could plant Clonville types to repeat the same two or three mantras like it's their only purpose in life, just so the "interested" readers get a "quality" look at what happens when self-righteous democrats suddenly decide to swoop in and save a country from some supposed Red menace, only to lobotomize, devastate, and leave it completely hollowed out in the process.
Can I go on?
I mention your own impressions because they fit right into this grand, ceremonial program of demonizing Russia that we’ve been witnessing for months.
PS. It’s good that the Scotchman noticed who was being louder on the topic back then; kudos to him. My only gripe is that he failed to notice the periods when you couldn't even catch your breath because of all the pro-American spammers.
