Ctrl+F "brave" or "heroic", I'll wait.

Are you interested in the just the most banal moronic level conversation or would you like to discuss how

  • firing missiles AT or OVER Taiwan is an escalation

  • while testing within the mainland USA is NOT

And you still have to tie it back to the article we're discussing otherwise this is just whataboutism bullshit, which we already agreed, you were going to shove where the sun doesn't shine

Semantics, calm your tits for goodness sake. The topic is propaganda, or "mind control" if you prefer. If you didn't get the connection, then it's not worth continuing a conversation.

Semantics that aren't present in the article. Semantics that you bought with you. Semantics which you have imagined, so that you get to call it propaganda .... When the article is just correctly reporting a test launch.

continuing a conversation.

What conversation? So far this is just you railroading nonsense. Let's try again

  1. How is firing missiles at or over Taiwan any less escalatory than a domestic launch in CA?

  2. Why does your imaginary semantics excuse a fascist genocide?

  3. How is this not whataboutism again? Your answer above is just "well whatabout when Bloomberg did a thing"

Is Operation Gladio B where they used Uyghurs to murder Chinese civilians an escalation?

Is the NED funding violent protests in HK an escalation?

Is the infiltration, military training and brainwashing of Taiwan an escalation?
