MOSCOW (AP) — Russian troops launched their anticipated attack on Ukraine on Thursday, as President Vladimir Putin cast aside international condemnation and sanctions, warning other countries that any attempt to interfere would lead to “consequences you have never seen.”
If I accused you of murder or sexual assault, you would full well expect me to provide some proof before making that kind of situation. In a time when world tensions were high, you jumped to conclusions and made them higher by exaggerating what happened. I don’t care if you don’t want to write an essay, that’s fine. But you chose to engage in these false claims in the first place, then dipped.
Remember when Russian backed separatists shot down that airliner? Their defense was also “prove it”, “show me the evidence”, “the plane shot down itself”. Years later, we can see that this is simply a ploy to distract, distort and delay. These disingenuous tactics have become all too transparent.
Minute by minute? It’s been over an hour and I’m still waiting for evidence of boots on the ground in Kiev. And if you look at livestreams of Kiev it looks like a normal day, people going about their business.
Looking a little further, they’re trying to get boots on the ground by taking the Kiev airport.
Yeah so you were wrong, weren’t you? But let’s keep going. How do you know they took Kiev airport? Or even what their intentions are?
They’re attacking the airport right now with paratroopers.
Really? Again, let’s see where you are getting this from.
It’s hard to do a lot worse than literally being wrong about an invasion every step of the way in real time.
That’s why @[email protected] had to dip out of this thread without providing a single piece of evidence for what they’re saying
My deepest apologies. It was nearing midnight and I needed to go to sleep instead of writing the requested essay.

Because they didn’t respond to dozens of comments from you on a minute by minute basis? Get a grip. Nobody owes you that.
If they didn’t have evidence that I was wrong, they shouldn’t have engaged with me in the first place
Edit: Hastily saying things like there are boots on the ground in Kiev without evidence is dangerous, warmongering talk. I won’t allow it.
Again, you’re delusional if you think anybody owes you minute by minute responses to everything you say. Go for a walk outside.
