They would constantly falsely accuse people of being alts of people they had nothing to do with. Like you'd see Hillary/Biden supporters accuse Bernie supporters of being Trump supporter alts just because both criticize Hillary/Biden. Even CE isn't that toxic.

Or maybe all those brand new users, that only apeared after anti vaxers got banned, where not being truthful about just making an account on Gamefaqs and going straight to the politics board to spread their anti vaxer nonsense.

What's more likely?

A person decides to make a brand new account on gamefaqs and not only that but go straight to the obsucure polotics board of it. Than make the exact same election denial posts we have seen a dozen times.

A loser got his account banned and was so needy for attention made an alt to keep shit posting.

Oh, I'm not saying there weren't a lot of alts, but no once could post ANYTHING without someone posting their account info immediately (so as to dismiss what they had to say). It was more annoying than useful

A lot of people really did have alt accounts though, and a lot of people really did pretend their politics were something other than what they really were on 261, which is why there were so many of those accusations.

TC tries so hard to hide what he's about, but he's really not good at it. I mean, people are also going to start to notice that those folks who shriek about how 261 got what was comin' to it all have something in common.

They also like to flat out ignore the only credible explanation that was given as to why 261 was shut down.

How is continuing to support Ukraine's current defensive efforts (but just not additional fights) allowing Russia to have Ukraine? Allowing Russia to have Ukraine would be withdrawing all support.

What the fuck are additional fights that aren't relevant to defense? Like Ukraine is about to win and they decide they want to use the toys we sent them to mess around with Russia a bit before the war ends?

By "additional fighting" I'm referring to opening conflicts where they aren't already being fought right now. The fighting going on currently is by definition not additional. Additional would be fighting in places not recently attacked by Russia.

Give us an example of something that is being proposed currently by some country somewhere that you would be opposed to, because any attempt I can make to parse what you're saying as some practical political position just translates as either nonsensical inanity or "We should stop assisting Ukraine once the current battles are over and let Russia take the territory from Ukraine they've secured but Ukraine isn't currently attacking" when I try to translate it to a real world position instead of a hypothetical.

You have such an obtuse way of writing. What does places not recently attacked by Russia mean? Does that include Ukrainian cities occupied by Russian forces? I seriously have no idea what you mean. Your opinions in this arent coherent.

Proposals to attack mainland Russia or any place Russia's controlled for years prior to the 2022 invasion. At that point it's more of an offensive than self-defense, and while Ukraine is justified in making those moves I don't think foreign military aid is warranted for offensives.

I said I wasn't voting and that people should stop attacking non-voters and that some non-voters had reasons behind their choice. I didn't tell anyone not to vote. If people weren't constantly complaining no debate would've been necessary.

So... Crimea and the russian occupied separatist regions in the east should belong to russia in your opinion. You feel they've earned the right to conquer those territories by invading and keeping them for so long and that Ukraine should have to retake them purely using their own military might instead of supporting the conflict ending in the only just manner possible as soon as possible with western support.

Thank fuck you aren't anyone important as far as policy goes. As long as Russia continues to refuse to withdraw from Ukrainian territory it needs to be thoroughly beaten back militarily and lose everything in Ukraine to set an example that wars of conquest will not be tolerated in the modern age.

Same as they'd cry foul if you personally tried getting elected with that trash policy proposal. You don't matter, but actual politicians do, and supporting people who are trash is a trashy thing to do. Voting for objectively bad people when there are better alternatives to vote for makes you a bad person.

Democrat-centered morality. It was especially funny seeing people who supported Bernie while he was frontrunner flip to calling him trash once it was clear Biden was going to win.

No I specifically stated Ukraine was justified in liberating those areas. I just do not think foreign military aid is warranted for anything other than pure defense. This has nothing to do with the specific conflict, it's a general belief.

No right, just precedent. The world went nearly a decade without responding to some of those invasions. After a certain point people settle into a new status quo.

Go back far enough and the US doesn't deserve the land it rests on, since the Native Americans were the original inhabitants. But if anyone attacked the US over that it'd be looked at as ridiculous. Because people settled into the new status quo.
