The problem is this:

You are safely in Australia. Putin is not going to ass-rape your family. Me live in Finland. Me have wife and kid. Me have Putin next door, ready to turn my kid into a Russian and me and my wife into pieces of meat.

And we have been conditioned with the exact same propaganda that was used prior to attacking Ukraine. This is why I know. I don't need to try to navigate within two different and opposite sources of propaganda. I can see right through it.

Now get this: when Putin decides Finland is worth of their resources to pursue and attack here, then you will go: MUH I KNOW THE FACTS Finland is a former nazi country where kids of Russians are routinely taken into custody, I know because I follow the REAL sources muh muh!

This is because you don't have a freaking clue what and where Finland is, and suddenly someone brings up decade-old articles how we are nazis here. WE know where this bullshit originated from, but you don't. To you, it clicks in place - oh, two sides of coin, this is a nazi country, so maybe denazification isn't that bad? This is a conflict, not a war.

You are a dangerous individual, because you are a so-called useful idiot. And worse, I consider you and some others direct threat to me and my family.

It is also really interesting to see how moderators of this forum have decided outsiders can now register on the forum just to join political threads.

I understand flexing on the rules to allow regulars sometimes drift into politics before locking the threads. I however do not understand letting Kremlin propaganda bots register on the forum with no real participation on electronics-related topics.

It would be nice if we could focus on
- How to deal with high prices as an individual
- What long term forecasts look like
- Causes of the gas shortage (not just Russia, as prices were high pre-invasion)

Without focusing too much on the invasion of Ukraine which will always be politically charged.

Maybe?

So as we are on the topic of propaganda and lies perhaps you can explain this "process" whereby we explicitly decide to allow anything. This forum is mostly self regulating, if you don't report then we don't know! not knowing something is happening is totally different from explicitly allowing it. User registrations are not screened.

I will now lock this topic as clearly it will never stay on topic, I am amazed at so few reports on a topic like this that has run for so long.
