CNN dutifully agrees to print lies instead of facts after the transgender American spokesperson of the Territorial Defense Forces of the Ukrainian Armed Forces threatens to boycott them.

The most amusing part is that 'she' had only been in the job for a week before she started demanding CNN rewrite their articles or else face the wrath of the mob. Such a quick learner!

The most amusing part is that CNN called everyone fighting in Ukraine western mercenaries, and THATS why the boycott happened. Do you even read the articles you post?

No they didn't. They called Western soldiers fighting in Ukraine mercenaries. Which they literally are.

> and THATS why the boycott happened. Do you even read the articles you post?

Yes. Do you?

So all soldiers who are foreign and fighting in Ukraine are mercenaries? They all signed up for the Ukrainian military and aren't deployed by their own governments' respective militaries?

And they're mercenaries because they have all signed up with the Ukrainian military? Cause that's how being a mercenary works, not just being a foreign soldier in a war

If they're foreign fighters who are engaging in hostilities and haven't been sent by their own country's military... then they're mercenaries. That's the definition.

The Ukrainian military's transgender American spokesperson has been indefinitely suspended for being a babbling halfwit. Who'd a thunk it.

Aren't official military spokesmen usually at least from the countries they're speaking for?

Ever since Walter thought Scotland was even tourist-visitable territory I've fallen out with him. Slavs are included in that to piss him off; even environmental PlayStationicization in Slavs is okay, but I seem to get mixed aggressive-positive responses from old-phenotype Slavs perhaps trying to beg me "grow a skin".

Sorry, there's just something so racially perverse that he doesn't even come to the indoctrinated critique of the pan-lumpenproletarian tovoid like I do.

In independent countries, yes. In ruined American battering rams masquerading as sovereign nations, no, they're given imbecilic transgender Americans to speak for them.

I wonder why the Ukrainian military thought putting a histrionic pervert as their public face would be a good idea?
