As usual c_v, you have no answer to the points put to you. You say my position is "blatantly wrong headed", but don't provide a single shred of evidence to support the accusation. That's the norm from you, which is why I stopped contributing to the thread.
Unlike yours, my state of mind is logical and consistent. You, on the other hand, are all over the place. One minute you're criticising MSM for their lies and misinformation (e.g. Brexit, Trump, the pandemic and climate change etc.) Then, you're in bed with them lapping up every syllable. When will the penny finally drop: it's the same people with the same agenda: power, control and money. Take your own excellent advice and follow the money!
Follow the money
Follow the money
Lastly, from just a few days ago: Follow the money
He's 90% yours too, as 90% plus of what Brand says you agree with. It's only on the subject of Ukraine that you and he differ. You know full well it's a hit job on him because he's become huge, with a massive following, and threatens the corporate liberal elites. Yeah, that's the same corporate liberal elites who - in any other context - you have no time for and, like Brand, think are acting in their own best interests and not yours. C'mon c_v, you're better than this.
The parallels with trading are clear: you're in a trade that's gone horribly, horribly wrong and you're adding to a losing position, hoping and praying for a miracle that the market does an about turn and enables you to exit for a small loss or, at best, break even. But it ain't happening, the reality is that the market continues to go against you and you're about to blow your account. That's where you're all at with this war. So, I urge you, R_L, CV and anyone else who persists in doubling down on what they 'want', 'hope' and 'wish' for to change tack and embrace the reality of the situation. That means picking one of the only three available options that I outlined in my last post to you. Of those, to a rational and sane person, only the first one makes any sense: belly to belly negotiation.
If you can't agree to that, then I have a final question to put to you: is your your hubris, arrogance and ego more important to you than the lives of innocent people being slaughtered on the battlefield? Are you really willing to see more people needlessly killed day after day rather than admit that you misjudged the situation and backed the wrong horse? That's certainly how it appears to me. So, when it comes to our respective states of mind, I put it to you that it is you who needs to look in the mirror and examine your beliefs, values and, above all, your moral compass. Because, unless you do an about turn, you're advocating and promoting the senseless killing of more and more people for absolutely no good reason whatsoever which will merely lead to more misery, suffering and destruction and, potentially, nuclear war. And that, quite literally, is not just totally immoral, it's completely insane.

So you don't agree with his views on all the other topics he posts about: Trump, the pandemic/vaccines and climate change? If so, then you've done a U-turn on all your stated positions on those topics. You can't have it both ways - so which is it?Nice try, he is 100% your clown.
Your problem c_v - from which you're determined not to learn - is that once your mind is closed on a particular topic - you won't change it even when the facts clearly show you're wrong. You didn't watch the Brand video then - and you've not watched any others by him on any other topic since - so you have no idea whether or not you and he are in sync on the broad range of topics listed. I, on the other hand, have watched them and read your posts on said topics - so I do know. Like it or not, I'm telling you for a fact you agree with 90% of what this 'clown' says.As I pointed out nearly 12 months ago.

Here's another example for you:
Rand Paul for president.
It will never happen of course, he's far too grounded and sensible for high office.
Now, have you changed your mind - do you now disagree with his position on Rona (that you endorsed so wholeheartedly) because he takes such a grounded and sensible view on Ukraine?
You're totally inconsistent c_v - your thinking is all over the place - you're contradicting yourself left, right and centre!
An utterly unbelievable statement.Anyway, you have provided no solution to Russia's aggression and subversion of world governing bodies apart from trotting out the appeasement line. Which will not be happening on this occasion.
Aren't soldiers supposed to follow orders?
Russian soldiers say they are committing suicide or deserting
Soldiers from the 1,442nd regiment, who are fighting near the occupied Ukrainian village of Klishchiivka near Bakhmut, said in a video they are now fleeing.www.dailymail.co.uk
c_v,
If by some slim chance you're remotely interested in the reason why Zelensky is rejecting Putin's offer of diplomacy - then you need to read, mark, learn and inwardly digest every syllable of this latest offering from The Duran . . .
Shoot the messenger and ignore the inconvenient truth in the message. That's what's laughable as it's all you can do c_v. Indeed, it's all you ever do."Yesterdays hero to become tomorrow's no one". A quote from Alexander Mercouris in the vid about Zelensky. Well if the cap fits bud !
Absolutely laughable when you consider that "your expert" from The Duran, Alexander Mercouris was disbarred in 2012.
