You never know when to stop, do you ^^

The RT link doesn’t support your thesis

You cannot even say what my thesis is, because you keep shifting goal posts and writing only for yourself.

My thesis, which I wrote 12 messages up thread, is that it would be silly for Ukraine to strike itself because they have the most to lose, and if the Russian propaganda really is claiming that, good luck shaping up a cover story that makes sense. You keep saying "no, it's not true, the source is not valid, …", because you really miss the forest for the tree.

It is indisputable that Russian Times (RT) reported that Ukraine might soon attack their nuclear power plant: fact. And furthermore, when you read the article, the Russian propaganda makes no effort as to explain what would be Ukraine's motive in doing that, which brings us back to my thesis (aha): this whole episode is laughably amateurish.

Your thesis is that Russia is going to blow up a nuclear power plant on their own territory. Meanwhile, if you think Ukrainian regime cares about people of Ukraine then you really haven't been paying attention. My favorite part is that you just keep doubling down on this by claiming that it would be silly for Ukraine to do this, but evidently don't have the cognitive capacity to understand that it would be even more silly for Russia.

We can certainly agree that your troll tactics are indeed laughably amateurish. You really don't know when to stop.

Nope. Never said that. Never will unless reputable sources show evidence for it.

Literally the whole argument you've been making in this thread is that if there was an incident at the ZNPP then it would be the fault of Russia because you find it inconceivable that Ukraine would do such a thing. So, yes, your thesis has very obviously been that. I guess you've finally read your comments sober and trying to backtrack on that now. 😂
