Words (hostile speeches) are not violence, sending weapons is not violence, funding violent regime changes in foreign countries is not violence, establishment of military bases is not violence, spying is not violence, fake news and propaganda is not violence, blackmail is not violence,sanctions is not violence, freezing accounts is not violence, but all them lead to violence and war. Saakasvilli sent troops because of such things. Georgia was ment to be a proxy as Ukraine is.
Discussion
This seems a good list of Russian activities. But by no means it gives legitimacy to Russian actions. I am really done arguing with you. As you are clearly not making effort to accept Russia as the main offender I will only respond by reporting your notes, when you continue with unconfirmed baseless assults and publishing russian propaganda unfiltered.
Unconfirmed baseless assults.
Read your comments. It is just that.
nostr:npub1cm87c625x3tzqu2qzf7e845749k58u7xvx2gc8ym0wmg9sytwwuqdrzwm4 is allowed to remain unconvinced and hold to his own opinion. That is not diverging from dialectec.
I don't expect everyone to agree with me, just to remain civil and constructive, which he has been.
I don't need his agreement, to know that I am right. 😁
Totally he is allowed to post whatever he wants. But I do not see any point in letting pure propaganda notes be unreported.
I think when I learned something from twitters downfall into a noisechannel, than it is that everyone is to publish their notes.
So I am also allowed to report his notes as my free speech. And I am hardly oblidged to read his notes.
Clearly as of my goal, I will report notes, that creat unconfirmed stories that collide with well documented stories in a way, that it is clear desinformation or a simple lie.
I totally respect genuine commenter, the open their opinion. One can opinate that the russian Agression is legit. But to me it is not open for discussion if Russia invaded Ukraine or not. Same with Georgia or Tchechenia. And I am not open for discussion if Russia committed horrible warecrimes in Butcha.
Who does not respect that facts exist should not expect that I respect notes disreguarding proven facts.
You can report all you want. Nostr is a free country.
Yes you can report all you want. Maybe you should not forget to report your notes too, since they definitely create unconfirmed stories that collide with well documented stories in a way, that it is clear desinformation or a simple lie. Especially after bringing Butcha as an example where the western propaganda was trying to convince us that russians were bombarding themselves, while denying to participate to an international investigation about the case and insisting to make only their own. Extraordinary claims need extraordinary proofs someone was saying and if this is not a baseless accusation then what is it?
Reporting on Nostr is always a double-edged sword, as some people will block excessive reporters from their feed or their relays.
Nobody likes a tattle-tell.
Yeah, but a cold conflict is still much better than a hot one.
Exactly. During the cold war there were some measures taken by both sides for example. There was some balance.
After the fall of the soviet union someone is pushing for hot wars etc.
Russia. Russia has been pushing for hot wars. Because, as I have pointed out, it doesn't have much appeal to anyone, so it can't use propaganda effectively.
To win a cold war, you need an inspiring narrative, and Russia doesn't have one.
