Russia is inflicting as much damage as it can in Russian-speaking areas because to Putin they are all traitors if they don't support his ideology. Discuss.

    If you want to discuss it, Steve, I would start a separate thread if I were you. Any discussion on this thread is derailed by David spamming it with endless videos of Russian stuff being blown up. He has rendered discussion on this thread pointless. Four of the six posts prior to this post on this page, 11 of 15 on the last page and 9 of 15 the page before that.
    Start a thread on it, I'm sure there will be a response. Discuss it on this thread and it will be three posts of discussion followed 5 spamming videos and then an odd post here and there after swimming through posts and posts of videos of Russian stuff blowing up.

The last one I posted was of Ukrainian grain silos being blown up.

    Ok then;

If you want to discuss it, Steve, I would start a separate thread if I were you. Any discussion on this thread is derailed by David spamming it with endless videos of Russian stuff(with perhaps the odd silo thrown in-for variety) being blown up.

     Is that better?

Footage from the conflict in question is very relevant.

Russia sending conscripts into the meat grinder and blowing up food supplies is worrying. Hence you find it in the thread " Russia - worrying?"

a thread for footage that contradicts the tankie fantasy world narrative.in question is very relevant.

   You spam the thread with them, as you well know. If you thought they were as relevant as you claim, then you would have the courage of your convictions and be happy to have a dedicated thread constantly updated in real time with your important updates.
    I suggested it to you some time back which just made you increase the spamming. I opened a thread for you to have a real time "footage from the conflict" thread. This again made you increase your spamming. Shall I ask ngb to change the name of the thread currently called, "a thread for footage that contradicts the tankie fantasy world narrative." to the shortened title " a thread for footage".
     You could be the Jeremy Bamber Forum version of Oryx. Given that Oryx Osint are closing on the 1st October, you could be a ready made replacement, David. If it is relevant then you can post all of it in one place without it being interrupted by other discussions and everyone can find all of your relevant explosions in one place. Seems a win win to me.
     24 out of 36 posts when none of them are offering anything to debate is spamming. You know it, I know it.

   Do you imagine that this thread would have lasted as long as it has, if it was members just posting endless videos of people and equipment being blown up as a means of discussion with each other? We can all find war porn if we want to. You are the only one who endlessly posts this crap, whilst waving your silly flag, as if we were discussing a sports match and not the most significant geopolitical confrontation and re-ordering in our lifetimes. If you have the courage of your own convictions and believe your videos are important, then embrace a thread dedicated to that.
    You are filling the thread with them. You do it deliberately to derail discussion.

    Had I responded to Steve's request, "Russia is inflicting as much damage as it can in Russian-speaking areas because to Putin they are all traitors if they don't support his ideology. Discuss.", it is guaranteed that you would then have derailed that discussion with a handful of videos. That you use one post for each video, rather than just sticking 5 on the one post betrays your real motive.
     It is ironic that my response to Steve, pointing out your spamming, was the only reply that even you couldn't spam to. Had I attempted to "discuss" Steve's offering, we all know how you would have responded.

    Here's the thing, David. As you know I read https://www.moonofalabama.org/ on a regular basis. It is a very long standing international community of the informed, connected and interested in geopolitics. The comments section always throws up some very interesting sub-plots and intrigues. The worldwide community of "barflies" link to agreements, articles, declassified papers that may be relevant to any discussion. It is way deeper and more informative than anything you will ever see in any mainstream source.
     There are the odd commenters who post regularly videos. However, when they do, they don't need a new post for every video. You will get someone post 5 or 6 videos in one post and then leave it at that. They would be removed by Bernhard anyway if they posted in the manner that you do.
     24 out of 36 posts, all spamming videos, tells its own story, David. Those 24 posts could easily have been just four. But that wouldn't derail discussion, so you choose to post 24, because that is your aim.
