Ukraine / Russia

I'd add a graph or some other chit though I'm not as skilled nor have the time involved in the @wllm1313 capabilities of tasks that I'd imagine repetition has finely tuned.
That said:

VG = 10 pages of 20 per page. Either HT search tires out at 10 pages or... 200 posts are VG's in this thread.
Wllm = 95 posts
Neffa = 126
<--- = 80

VG, I think you're the Champ for this thread.
 
So, quick math has me at about 5/day. With a fair amount of those being cut-n-paste humor and repeats of standard handloading and firearm recommendations. That is my complete and total internet communication of any type. No twitter account, no facebook account, no insta account, no snapchat, no 24h campfire, no longrangehunter, no rokslide, no monstermuleys, no parlor, no rumble, no telegram, no tik tok, nothing, nada. Maybe one non-work email a day. I leave it to each of you to decide if I am more prolific than you or others you see online.

I do find it interesting that the only time my post volume is a topic of discussion is when I call BS on racist/sexist tropes, conspiracy theory non-sense, and daring to question the great trumpkin. You can make of that what you wish.

Actually I wish I had gone short on all the "conspiracy theories" which turned out to be fact in the last couple of years. And I freely admit that, early on, I bought some of them. We should all be a little warier now.
 
Hey guys, check the thread title!

Untangling disinformation using media matters as your source. Solid journalism NPR!
This is the extent of what they used Media Matters for in that article.
One QAnon follower on Twitter gained thousands of retweets with a thread posted on Feb. 24 claiming that Russian airstrike targets included "US installed biolabs" and citing Russian accusations that the U.S. has been developing "bio-weapons" at those facilities. This thread, according to extremism researchers, ended up being a significant inflection point that revived what had been a languishing Russian disinformation narrative.


"I actually consider it to be potentially the most significant failure from a mainstream social media platform to enforce their QAnon crackdown since they started in mid-2020 because the consequences of that have been so significant," said Alex Kaplan, a senior researcher at Media Matters.

He was not used as a primary expert on anything other than stating trends in media responses to misinformation. An opinion from a guy at a liberal think tank doesn't invalidate the rest of the article. The majority of this article relies on a UW professor of Russian and Eurasian studies, not Media Matters.

Me bringing it up had absolutely nothing to do with anything but the post portion I quoted. I found it funny, that’s all.
 
All fun and games until...

🤣

Life. And now that we've hashed out the epic level of posts -

Ukraine Russia... and all the countries involved. Be it media matters, NPR, QANON or who was that pale skinned wiki guy holed up in some embassy or wherever he lives? Haha!

One thinks The Guardian is objective another thinks...

Blah! How 'bout some APNews folks.

Seems some of the big kahunas of Mother Russia are tiring of Putin and lack of using their yachts freely, me thinks...
