On no fewer than three separate occasions I’ve been accused of propagating “Russian talking points” when I make verifiable, factual statements about the war in Ukraine. Three different people, three different occasions, but they all repeat the same shit.
Where does this come from? Is this Rachel Maddow lib slop, or something more widespread? I have never once heard this phrase used in any media that I consume, only as a thought-and-conversation terminating “rebuttal” and a way to avoid engaging with the actual substance of what I am saying about the war.
The irony of course is that “Russian talking points” is itself a talking point so it is, as usual, just projection 
It’s like some sort of propagandist got a list of all the inconvenient facts about Ukraine (nazis, lack of democracy, corruption, etc etc) and then just slapped a ‘RUSSIAN TALKING POINTS’ sticker onto them and delivered the package to libs all over the world.
But, seriously, WHERE DOES THIS ORIGINATE?


I’ve been accused of being secretly ethnically Russian when debating people online.
As everyone knows, politics is stored in the balls.
As a Lvl 25 librarian, it’s actually stored in the Beanis
The pee is stored in the Balkans.
