Looks like those pictures of people waving pro Russia signs at European protests were mostly Russian plants that would show up to other protests (like the French retirement protest) and pretend that whole thing was a protest against Ukraine. They would wave their signs, stage a few pictures, and dip on out.

So me, chop, SG, etc. are now "Russian plants"? I guess we've been hearing that for years now.
The mainstream news might as well try to pull of stories like this, as there's always some who believe whatever they're told to believe.
-------------------- I am in a minority on the shroomery, as I frequently defend the opposing side when they have a point about something or when my side make believes something about them. I also attack my side if I think they're wrong. People here get very confused by that and think it means I prefer the other side.

Not surprising considering the entire international community save for a few holdouts can recognize that russia is in the wrong for invading another sovereign country on the basis of territorial expansion. It's a pretty open and shut issue so of course they need to pay people to push their side.

Adding “mainstream” to an argument doesn’t make it valid.

If you're attending random protests with pro-russian slogans in an effort to get pictures that make it look like the entire protest is pro-russian, then yes.
As far as I can tell, all you do thus far is uncritically repost those pictures claiming that the entirety of Europeans are protesting in favor of Russia, and repeat pro-russian talking points.
I haven't seen you adopt Russian slang yet, unlike choppy.

Does it make your joke funnier that you are just an unpaid shill? I think so.

I think it really says quite a lot about you that you still haven't figured out yet that normally when someone is accused of being a "Russian shill", it's because they have realized certain things as being true that are dangerous to the establishment.
The sad thing is, you are smart enough to figure these things out on your own. But your ego is so huge it could blot out the sun, and you lack any kind of humility whatsoever, so you will remain in your bubble of obstinance forever.
Doesn't matter much to me. You are hurting yourself though.

Have you ever accused someone of being a 'soros shill'? I feel like you've accused others of being a soros shill.

It was a joke about his joke. There’s nothing worth debating.
