A russian-paid propagandist

better than being America-paid

claims something no one can confirm or deny. So we have to trust him on this. So hin trustworthy is he? While he has some credibility from back in 2004, his claims made since 2018 are completely out of his mind. So as long as no second source confirms this, this claim is worth nothing.

America does this repeatedly, e.g. Gulf of Tonkin, the Nayirah testimony. Trusting the US government’s narrative just because Ritter is a shitty person gets you no closer to the truth.

He claims for example that Ukraine committed the Butcha massacre - while Russia was in control of Butcha during the time the massacre took place.

The evidence suggests that Ukrainian fascist groups murdered pro-Russian citizens of Bucha and then the Ukrainian government covered this up and blamed Russia. All the West has to go against this is “But Ukraine wouldn’t lie to us!!” and various obviously fabricated phone calls. Honestly, I get so fucking sick of human lives being used and manipulated in this way. Atrocity propaganda like this is a disgusting act by the United States and Ukraine and I hope they are forced to apologize for this, and their claims about the Ughyurs, at some point in the future. Also the claims about the “Holodomor”, which is soft Holocaust denial at this point.

sidenote: I truly miss the period earlier in the war where like twice a week I’d see an article about how Russian soldiers had gotten on their phones and said, loudly and clearly, “I am a WAR CRIMINAL that has VIOLATED THE GENEVA CONVENTIONS. I repeat, I am a WAR CRIMINAL. I have KILLED CIVILIANS and was ORDERED TO DO SO - repeat, ORDERED TO DO SO. Gee, I sure hope nobody is recording me saying this! I have TORTURED PEOPLE and think PUTIN is a BIG POOPYPANTS DICTATOR.” Like, man, who were those phone calls even meant to convince? What shitty propaganda.

anyway,

He also claimed that Syria - a russian ally - had no chemical weapons. Later chemical weapons were used by Syria during the war. All while being paid by the Russia state.

I agree - Assad was such an idiotic person to have chemical weapons in his possession for years, then America warns him not to use them or they’d invade, and then right after, he uses them! What a complete dunce! How could he have been so stupid? I mean, maybe America invented that Assad ordered them to be used in order to provide a casus belli like the Gulf of Tonk-- NO! NOPE! CONSPIRATORIAL THINKING! LOGICAL FALLACY! Assad is a stupid incompetent idiotic dictator poopyhead!
