    people genuinely stupid enough to believe nato is defensive in nature have never opened a history book outside of their compulsory schooling

      In fairness, propagandists write books about history too. It is entirely possible for a person that isn’t very curious to pick up “normie” pop history stuff and think they are learning.

        that is true, but frankly i’m willing to put money down on most people who hold patently incorrect beliefs like “nato is a defensive organization” simply being deeply incurious people who have never investigated anything that’s not immediately relevant to their interests

          That’s probably true, but also quite depressing given the prevalence of the deeply ignorant. Hopefully the average person is better than that.

      I believe comments like this are the reason why people want to defederate hexbear.

      Self-opinionated, aggressive and insulting, all in a few lines of comment. I can’t deny there’s an art in there, but not one that makes one like the artist.

        Self-opinionated

        Self-opinionated

        Is this to contrast with your own opinions which instead of generating yourself, you received from the western media?

        i’m gonna go out on a limb here and assume you live in a house with no mirrors

        i’m not sorry if my statements give offense when they’re based in reality. want to be treated better? we already have a special tool for that, it’s called “having correct opinions”

            So when you have opinions and you express those opinions. Sounds like you’re pretty self-opinionated about certain topics because you’ve chosen to snarkily quote the dictionary.

            1 as in opinionated

            so it’s like “irregardless”

            in other words, yes, you’re just saying shit

                you’re also “self-opinionated” the only difference is that the opinions you’re stubborn about are wrong

                  Look, I weakly challenged the original commenter on a basis which I actually observed in the real world.

                  Since then I only was challenged back in the forms of belittling and insults.

                  Not one word about why NATO would not be a defensive alliance. I left loooots of room for that in my initial response. But no, only insults, and now I am challenged because of the use of a nuanced english word that you people choose to not understand. This is ridiculous.

                  I was indifferent before, but after this experience I support defederating hexbear.
