Oh I knew about Hasan saying Russia wouldn't attack Ukraine. I mean I don't know where the being best buds with Putin came from.
The saying "wouldn't attack" isn't my main gripe. It's the constant blaming of NATO for the conflict. Which is word-for-word out of putin's playbook.
Also, there were plenty of terms of endearment from hasan. It was never "putin bad" before the invasion. It was "putin smart, NATO bad".
I don't have any more sources for you, you can believe what you please. I don't give a rat's ass about the dickhead, and I'd like to stop talking about him right now.
Even if he is a dickhead, this kind of thought policing by border security is bad for all of us.
100% agree.
But I have changed my mind after reading further about the things he has said. He deserves extra scrutiny.
Am not going to delete my comment because Lemmy is all about civil disagreement, even if it is with myself 😁
Elsewhere in these comments, the mod just disagreed with me. On Reddit WorldNews I was banned for less.
