You think that it's equivalent to saying the Earth is flat to wonder about the logic of complaining about "Russians" on this website? I was pretty careful about my inferences, though I invited you to show me my error and still would be interested to see where my mistake was!
And this is your first post, of a 2 days old account
Go shill to someone else. You think people are naive?
Apparently they are naive, since that claim that the death toll was 10,000 was refuted even by the person who first gave it down to a fraction of what it was, which brings it still closer, but still far above, other estimates even from other western journalists.
Also I think calling me a "shill" is breaking the rules, though I hope your comment stays up to demonstrate that you believed what you posted to be a home run.
Report me then, I'd really like to know.
No. Like I said before, I hope that your comment stays up, so reporting you would be bad for that. That said, in other communities "shill" (which insinuates the person is being paid to say what they are saying) is considered a form of "jacketing," which is internet slang for baselessly assigning someone an identity for the purpose of discrediting them, just like calling someone a "fed" when you have no evidence that they work for the government. If it is within the rules, it shouldn't be based on what they say, and that goes just as much for if I called you a "State Department shill," which I would never do even if I could because I have no doubt that you're doing this on your own time. Whether that reflects positively or negatively on you, I will leave as an open question.
I'm still very curious about my original question, by the way.
okay, then it's goodbye.
