    Is that the Kraut I think it is? If so, I don’t think I have enough salt to take with those.

    Anyway, what’s your point?

      Kraut is a leftist YouTuber, not a politically incorrect username.

      You could just, you know, read? Point being, the pro-Russian propaganda sounds “convincing” because the Russians are very nationalistic (and also many are too politically apathetic to protest) bunch to be dissuaded from supporting the war. Additionally, many ordinary Russians benefited from the war financially. Here’s another video also putting the war into perspective for many: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebS9h_QSrbI

        I mean whether that’s the “Kraut & Tea” guy. Just looked up - it is. You might want to google on that, too.

        Did you? I’m saying “don’t give food to propaganda” and you go on rambling about Russian mindset and how nationalistic they are. Even if true (not really), what does it have to do with the argument? The reason “they are out to get ya” is convincing has absolutely nothing to do with nationality or mindset. If someone comes to you with a recording of your neighbor planning on killing you, you will trust that person more than the neighbor, simple as that.
