the topic wasn't different handlings of rioters for political reasons (a topic i agree with you 100% btw) it was about whether or not Jan 6th, in a vacuum, was bad. rather than discuss that you said "what about antifa". that is exactly what whataboutism is. its not a hard concept. if u refuse to talk about a subject and bring up something else that's what the definition of whataboutism is. then if ur called out and cry that people just refuse to talk about your deflection thats the textbook definition of a manbaby who cant admit they dont understand simple terms even when they're right there in the name.

its funny because u were talking to me an icemage, 2 people who are against antifa riots and want property damage to be prosecuted without political influence. and i told you that immediately, you ignored me, and will again i bet.


No I never said what about antifa.

You should look back in that topic and discover that the whole time (in discussion with Icemage, not you) I was comparing the ridiculous sentences for the Jan 6th rioters vs the Floyd rioters who were quickly released/ bailed out.

That's where YOU jumped in with your federal building vs private property argument that didn't hold any water, lol

At that point you started crying about whataboutism because you were out of arguments and were trying to salvage your position.

BTW textbook definition of a man baby is someone who's crying about whataboutism in an effort to torpedo a valid argument ^_^

Plain spoken... If someone posts a link to the source, quotes it and leaves as is for you to discuss. Is he the one mentioned for not being plain spoken?

Yday in german MSM: up to highest court in ukraine most foznd guilty into corruption. Since i hadnt time to check for more details, ill let you guys do the rest :p

Which of the ^ironfister ^prox1m1ty ^meanwhile was the one who assert ukraine is fully legal any respectable?


Ukraine:
Ukraine has some corruption problems, and we all know it. Its good its fighting them.
Ukraine was under russian occupation for many years, once you are under occupation you resist your government, you create shadow market, avoid paying taxes.
The country went free in 1992, but you cant really change people behaviour quickly, especially since the rich people drive the corruption to make them even richer.
The solution: EU demands corruption free to advance on joining, this is the motivator for everybody in a country like Ukraine to fight corruption.
Yes it can be done, we had similar situation here in Poland. During Russian occupation people were not really paying all the taxes, and the corruption was abundant. Policeman stopped you for speeding? you gave him 10USD and he let you go, instead of paying 30usd ticket. Now if you try to do it you will be in serious trouble.

Russia:
On the other hand Russia is not only corrupted just as much, but also evil, imperialistic, aggressive, murderous.

So you brought up george floyd protesters getting released, to a guy who agrees with you, to argue against a guy who agrees with you.

then i gave some relevant details on why jan 6th protesters are getting harsh treatment (on top of political pressure, which we agree on) and you assumed we disagree on everything.

you're really just confused more than anything about what common ground you have, and assume you have none, then you strawman. pretty comical.
