i asked duckduckgo

        amnesty international azov battalion


  

this was just the first result

edit: here's the search

can you show where that was?

People thinking any mention of a personal attribute of the other person is an “ad hominem.”

did you find an allusion to ad hominem in my comment somewhere?

Pick up a dictionary, IDF troll.

look. i butt heads with that user, too. i think they are blinded by their biases, and end up spreading false and misleading information due to that fact. BUT this factional-trolling accusation shit has got to stop. it creates a toxic environment. it's a personal attack, which is prohibited in most of the communities on .world, but more than that, it has become so ubiquitous it is also functioning as a thought-terminating cliche.

please, please, don't do this.

i can't count how many time's i've been called a republican shill, a russian shill, a hamas shill, or a bot. i've even emailed the admins of .world, asking them to try to reign this in. i don't know what to do about it, but i am asking you to join me and elevate the discourse just a little.

they say plainly what they don't know. what they don't know, you don't know. and if you don't know, you are trusting on faith, not evidence.

hollywood literally gives the pentagon script approval. not to mention the fact that almost all "journalism" today is just repeating what a government official has said.

i don't know what russian propaganda is like, but i know american propaganda, and it's like they have made PROJECT out of PAPERCLIPping their preferred messaging to every piece of media.

some people want to be swindled.

for what claim do you want a source that isn't provided?

why would I choose to stay in a country that is all but guaranteed to slide into a military dictatorship

you should have packed your bags a long time ago.

i quite like disroot's suite of services.

i'm begging you, don't buy snake oil.

it had nothing to do with it the discussion at hand

I am, but don't tell my boss. he thinks I'm working.

i think you got this thread mixed up with another

did this go to the right place?
