    I personally would not vote to ban you OhOh (for what it's worth) An alternative view is good, but your absolute refusal to see the blindingly obvious mistakes of your "boys" is why virtually no one on TD take you seriously apart from a couple of conspiracy theorists and your knob polisher.
    By all means show the other sides mistakes etc. but acknowledging the flaws on your own side of the political spectrum would give you at least some credibility with the few on TD that can look from a reasonably balanced viewpoint. Try referencing from a balanced new source, not RT or CGN. There are some out there and before you deflect, no not Fox Cnn etc.

    Everyone here criticises one or more aspects of their and others' negatives (in terms of country) except OhOh and Klondyke who are simply apologists and divert when confronted with facts.
    FFS, if the discussion is Putin and poisoning people, China and unfair practices then don't reply with how bad something is in other countries, almost all the time the US . . . oh, and Nazi Germany when they're being particularly fuckwitted.

    Latest and greatest example being Sweden's increased military budget to address baltic dominance by Russia . . . Klondyke's comment? Sweden should have thought of a military budget in 1940.
    It's just amazing

    Everyone.

    I post information and news articles from Chines, Asian, and western sources when I feel they are relevant and feel my limited knowledge may be illustrative.

    There are many here on TD who do not, focusing on their "home" country.

    I refrain from many threads, as I am not willing to post on subjects of which I have limited knowledge. When I do they are rightly answered/destroyed with those with more knowledge.

    As I have said many times. I saw many years ago, a Thai/Asian centric site full of to me interesting topics, but with little "information/news from Asian countries. Sure there were very, very useful "ex-pat" experience topics, along with Asian articles penned by non Asian outlets with a non-Asian perspective.

    I try to balance that imbalance and post all in one thread. The concentration allows those who have tasted "Eurasian Topics" and have found it not to their taste. Time to some of us is not to be wasted, for others it's an enjoyable/available usage of it

    If however topics on Asia are introduced under the general Thai/Asia News heading. Of which the main provider is MK, who is increasing the Asian produced topics which I have applauded. I join that thread with of course my own opinions and backup sources.

    I don't believe I have ever apologised for posting information or facts from published sources. They are what they are. I do apologise is I have posted a reply with the wrong source/quote/image.

    Quote Originally Posted by panama hat View Post

    When the "facts" are "illustrating" one countries actions and suggesting they are extreme/unusual, a balancing "fact" to another's usage, places a comparative perspective. Some here on TD may then consider one against the other.

    If that is in your and others opinion a "diversion" and "confrontation", as opposed to an inability/desire to discus, continue the ineffective accusations.

    To my mind it's a sign of weakness in your/their own arguments/facts/opinions.

    When reading the comments under MSM in Germany (are they non-state?) reporting about the poisoning, there is not one that agrees with the generous "help" of Frau Merkel contrasting with the inadequate care for millions of German poor population.

    (BTW, it was quite apparent on the footage when the cordon of few ambulances (was the body divided in them?) with accompanied police cars and motorcycles arriving to the Charite hospital, an old grandmother trudging and pushing a wheel walker, also entering the hospital, however, without any concern of the staff around...)

    No you don't, you post chinky and Russian government propaganda, sprinkled with fake blogs churned out by Russian troll factories pretending to be independent opinion pieces.

    You muppet.

    You should apologise for posting Russian propaganda published under the guise of an imaginary Bangkok-based blogger.

    I make a point of reading both sides propaganda. But of course, you can just watch Fox instead. Fair and balanced.

    On the contrary. I am calling out YOUR non sequiter.

    You say that all Russian media , the government , TV, bloggers , reporters ect are unacceptable. Nothing they say can be taken seriously. And that is where your argument ends.

    The only way your argument can't be a non sequiter, is if you believe that the Russian Federation has zero legitimacy.

    Not at all.

    I believe this, among any other articles:

    Saudi Arabia sees oil revenues plunge in JuneThe value of Saudi Arabia’s oil exports plunged by 54.8 percent year over year in June, or by US$8.7 billion (32.6 billion Saudi riyals), data from Saudi Arabia’s General Authority for Statistics showed on Wednesday.

    What the actual fuck ? This is Harry's argument. You can't map yourself onto it. Harry would not have read the RT article because it's RT. So my argument still stands

    He believes Russia has zero legitimacy. Which is fine. But that's how genocides happen

    Genocides? Are you suggesting that Russia will not only poison a few antagonists but a whole country?

    Anybody who does not speak what harry likes (and his cohorts either) does have "zero legitimacy". After all, isn't it usual in "democracy"?

    I think what you conveniently fail to understand is that we in the west know that some news outlets are biased. Fox news although a large news organisation in the USA would be ridiculed for its bias by most Americans on this forum, even though it would appear to be a big supporter of all things American. R.T. is just a more pro government propaganda news site than even Fox. At least fox has criticised the President on the odd occasion, something RT would not dream of, but please post any anti Putin news from RT to prove me wrong.

    What is currently happening with the US media and the people behind them - not to speaking about the other party dealing (impeachment, Russiagate, witch hunt, etc) - is almost a state coup against their president, dividing the country that is already in pretty big turmoil - not speaking about the virus that discovered all the week points - all the results are speaking for themselves.

    So, such "criticising of the President", what country would be so stupid to do it like this?

    It's quite a jumbled mess in that little half empty head of yours, isn't it?
