Several wounded soldiers interviewed by The Post explained how they suffered injuries in battle before capture, including one who said he injured himself with his own grenade in hopes he would die and not be taken prisoner. Ukrainian soldiers provided him first aid, he said, and then evacuated him to a clinic where he was X-rayed and had surgery to remove shrapnel from his wounds.

Wow, Russia really must be feeding them with propaganda about what being a POW in Ukraine is like, glad he survived to see it wasn't true.

Almost every poll had him winning within the margin of error, 2016 was never certain, just like this election isn't.

No, they just don't have to poll massive groups, surprisingly small groups work well enough for polling.

One week old account. 684 Comments. 383 Posts. That's 152 posts/comments a day, 9 an hour, and most are over a paragraph long. Almost all of them focus controversially on third-party advocacy in the middle of an election year.

Not saying this account is a bot, but a person would certainly have to be spending a whole lot of time on lemmy to be posting this much in one week so it certainly feels spamish.

You need to accept it. I have the right to vote for who I want.

You sure do, but If you're constantly posting on a forum trying to get other people to do the same, then we have the right to call you obtuse. It's not bullying.

She wants to build 3 million more houses too. but that's not exactly as good of a headline as "Hey first time home buyers! Vote for her and you'll get 25k"

Because it's not illegal for the MIC to lobby, that's just business as usual.

Looks like they're just using ISW's map, which has its own website.

It was rebroadcast on ABC, CBS, NBC.

Then use them as the source, a credible secondhand source that vets a shit firsthand source is always better than the shit non-vetted firsthand source.

You never understood my point, so don't try to say you were using it, you literally tried to use Assange as an example of a journalist when he's plead guilty to encouraging the release of classified documents.

A news story is not a news organization.

Yes, but the ability to reliably, responsibly, and truthfully report a story comes almost entirely from the credibility of the organization, of which Fox has none.
