    Remember when you were claiming that it wouldn’t happen at all? And I was more cautious, saying that it was too early to call it either way? Then Russia invaded.

    Sure, I didn’t think there would be a war. I’ve stated my reasons for that clearly.

    No, they really didn’t. I don’t care how many times people post that one transcript, the 2014 overthrow was carried out by Ukrainians. The only public record shows that foreign governments had relatively minor involvement on the periphery.

    Yes, they really do. Every serious person in the west including people like Chomsky, Mearsheimer, and now even Kissinger say this. The fact that you continue to deny this shows just how divorced from reality you are on your media diet of propaganda.

    You sure?

    Yeah, I’m sure. My mother’s side of the family is from Ukraine, I know people who actually live in Ukraine. The fact that westerners like you who don’t speak the language, and know nothing about the country continue bleating nonsense is incredibly infuriating to watch.

    Well I want Russia to get hurt bad by this war

    They won’t be. This is clear to anyone who understands anything about his conflict. On the other hand, the west is being hurt tremendously by this war already. You can keep dreaming of your fantasies, but as everything else you say, they’re divorced from reality.

    I don’t know how this war will come out. You frequently claim how it’s going to inevitably going to come out, but I’ve shied away from that. There are too many variables. And I know full well that people are trying to manipulate me, and sometimes I make mistakes.

    I simply follow what actual military, political, and economic experts say. None of them are shying from predicting the outcome of this.
