MOSCOW (AP) — Russian troops launched their anticipated attack on Ukraine on Thursday, as President Vladimir Putin cast aside international condemnation and sanctions, warning other countries that any attempt to interfere would lead to “consequences you have never seen.”
Replying to me by saying “oh so you didn’t want me to look at the facts” is a completely disingenuous and juvenile equivocation over ordinary terminology.
It’s a signal that you are not even trying to engage in good faith. If people on Lemmy saw nothing other than this chain of comments it would be sufficient reason to never engage with you.
There was no name calling. he said that yogthos made a “completely disingenuous and juvenile equivocation” and that he’s “not even trying to engage in good faith”.
The answer to the question of “I’m not sure what self-reflection you’re suggesting I should be doing here” is that he should reevaluate all of his supposed facts and justifications made by the Kremlin because they’re probably lies…
I replied to you saying that based on the available facts it looked like the repercussions for Russia invading Ukraine would be undesirable. Meanwhile, working diplomatically with the west would produce the results that Russia wanted. Obviously I’m not omniscient, and I was clearly wrong in my assessment. However, I once again ask you to explain why you’re insisting that my assessment was wrong based on what was known at the time.
Seems to me that you’re the one being extremely disingenuous here given that you refuse to address the actual points I made.

Stop the name calling and answer the question
