The show feels like a form of sleep hypnosis. I don’t understand how my full cocaine and redbull rockstar energy child can somehow sit still for something with this pace. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I didn’t tell you not to watch wrestling I told you it was fake. You somehow seem to take that as “well I can’t know unless I watch it” which is an absolutely preposterous bit of logic you’ve committed yourself too. Same is true for a bunch of Russian hacks with a long history of BS statements being presented by one of our more flamboyantly in the bag characters as “the real story on the ground.” Two of us knew how bogus that claim was, we provided you with easy verifiable examples of it… but you, like a child, need to stick the key in the wall socket to find out it will in fact be a negative experience for you.

Do you need to watch professional wrestling to know it’s fake, or has enough been demonstrated to meet the expected threshold to dismiss the idea it’s real? At this point you just want to be contrarian to any evidence presented about these guys and their show and you’ve ignored all of it or dismissed it as “that doesn’t count because…” Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I bring him up because no rational person would attempt to disprove his demonstrated lack of integrity (the the point of openly defending himself in court saying so) or defend the concept we need to listen to his content with any reasonable expectation of truth. What an irrational person would do is take a similarly set of highly compromised individuals hosting a podcast which spends its content selling fabricated stories and negative narratives of the west and NATO as somehow worthy of the time to spend to mince through said content in search of any kind of truth. You aren’t nuanced, you’re just obtuse. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s this or pay attention to Daniel Tiger. Though I think that show would give as good a ground intelligence summary as two hacks telling us Ukraine is done for and all the worlds ills are the fault of the west and NATO. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I can assure you even empty a full frame plastic pistol will effectively pistol-whip somebody if that’s what you’re down to. Polymers don’t quick give the way an eye socket does. And the barrel is great for an in hand smash grip. Doesn’t feel as natural as a full frame metal or revolver, but it’s still way harder than your fist. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

No we all get it you’re a troll. You just like to be a more sophisticated one than our regular troll. I just like pointing out the dubious guests and theories by your new favorite podcast to champion because anybody taking your advise to give service to them is gonna waste their time figuring that out first hand. It’s like watching you defend Tucker as still being needed to be listened too seriously. That’s a Rogan episode you can definitely skip. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Man 1398 more podcasts before you can exercise any level of critical thinking on the nature of its content… how will you have time to keep up with all the breaking news on OAN. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m gonna warn you, due to its relative size the tech warrant community can be extremely clique’ish on gatekeeping upward mobility. The other bad trend we seem to have is a lot of WO positions in the MTOE exist at such a level you get bosses with rank that discount your expertise because you’re just a W2, or warrants that try to wear daddy’s rank which is no better than the out of control E8/9. I’m am glad to see the Air Force embrace the concept of specialization over ladder climbing and I do think it’s something we should get behind DOD wide. I just hope in growing this new community they can avoid the pitfalls and negative habits we created in the Army. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

First hand knowledge from a guy that was disbarred for fabricating false testimony and evidence. Here since google is a foreign concept to you, just another easy example of them out championing a Russian narrative that the west is false flagging chemical weapons attacks in Syria. Up next your defense of Andrey Stepanenko or Tucker Carlson. They simply must be given the benefit of the doubt for every broadcast. Again, nobody is telling you to get all your information from some Ukrainian blogger, but what are telling you it’s it’s absolutely ludicrous that we need to ignore the obvious connections to what we know is an active IA campaign from a demonstrated group of face men in that campaign.

Listening to you have all this previous life and pretend or avoid discussion on intelligence source confidence is hysterical. You worked around the intel domain doing what exactly? Answering F’ing phones? What did you learn about confirmation bias when your just a post ago telling us all the things you find wrong with American actions and policy but ignoring a media source clearly linked with a foreign opponents state owned media? Dude goes on TV saying “if you accept the western advanced theory about MH17” and you somehow don’t know to immediately discount him as a source of untainted information. He’s a stooge, he’s demonstrated that. Somebody with unclassified access should have enough critical thinking to see a pattern of behavior, somebody with better access would know how stupid his defense of Russia really was. But let’s not forget how many posts ago you playing stupid about psyops, like I said you’re not debating from a position of intellectual honestly, just contrarian hackery. There is a literal mountain of declassified open source available intel from not only our intel but allied and more neutral nations talking about this for collective years. It gets even denser the closer to Russia you get, like go check out the active disinformation campaigns regarding Sweden and Finland. In all your cultivation of info form multiple sources (not just the ones stroking the narrative you like) you somehow missed those. No Russia totally isn’t using social media to do what all those things are saying it’s doing…. It’s all a western media lie. That British guy on Russian TV said so. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Yeah no you’ve made it pretty clear you don’t understand or want to learn how the information domain of warfare/policy works. You don’t need to keep pointing it out. Again, some of us are privileged to access you don’t enjoy. Can’t trust any of the declassified examples of that stuff we and other Allie’s have put out painting those numbers for you. Gotta go seek out the point of view from Russian stooges on what “they” are “really doing.” But please go on telling us how sourcing information from a directly linked geopolitical foe is staying informed.

No a podcast with no disclosed funding, hosted by and guested by the individuals we already talked about, which spends its head space in a constant churn of negative reinforcement to any western actions counter to Russia’s set goals would be a Psyop. The military industrial fiscal policy of the US isn’t the sole lines of commentary produced by that podcast. Again you’re desire to repeatedly highlight any example of what you perceive as any negative historical/political actions by our own country while just giving a blind pass to that opponent country’s media (which the Duran has an undeniable connection too) is astounding. Who/what do you think Russia is making and spending the effort of an English speaking news channel for? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Wow you watched the Russian Tucker Carlson and a disgraced lawyer talk about the military industrial complex and can’t figure out the link between that narrative - information domain of warfare - and its translation to effecting actual combat power on the battlefield. Like I know multi-domain warfare is a relatively new doctrine, and you yourself aren’t in the military, but your inability to understand how this works and repeated denial of it going on is astounding. Like you can acknowledge implicit bias present in whatever episode but can’t bridge the gap to understand strategic effect. You’d make an excellent Col. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

-You were given multiple examples of the direct connections to state controlled Russian news -You were given specific guests they have on and their dubious character issues -You were shown a clear example of the host of the podcast defending a Russian falsehood that it didn’t shoot down MH17 and every insinuation is just a western lie (which he’s done for years) No you can go listen to it you’ll just be an idiot for taking it seriously. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You know you can be critical of your government without seeking out and deliberately defending a foreign opponents propaganda right? You don’t have to go full tit on backwards crazy and deny it’s propaganda demanding people show you examples of how some source you’ve been listening too is actually bullshit only to then claim that those examples don’t count or deny any proof of connection to that foreign power. Also wrestling is fake. I know you’re gonna need to watch it to make sure, but maybe just try trusting 2nd hand info on this. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

He’s been advancing that point on cross talk and other media for multiple years. Man let’s go check out his podcast I’m sure it’s full of hitter facts. You believe it don’t you. Like you’re gullible enough to think Russia didn’t shoot down an airliner. You’re making the absurd complaint that until we drink from the knowledge stream you drink from we can’t know it’s piss. No we in fact do know it’s piss from having better upstream understanding of what’s in that water, we’ve been telling you it’s piss. It was piss before and it’ll be piss tomorrow. You’re refusing to acknowledge its piss because you happen to like this flavor and demanding we all pretend you aren’t in fact drinking piss. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Just one example since you still can’t get it through your head what their guests are doing in that show and what they are advancing. They have a 25 minute video advancing the narrative that Russia didn’t shoot down MH17 and attempting to discredit the unclassified investigation. If you believe that it’s because you don’t have access to stuff some of us do, and you’re an idiot swallowing Russian disinformation in an attempt to build distrust. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No… they don’t… Again, the particular podcast in question is linked directly to Russian state sponsored media and has frequent guests that are so corrupted as to have registered under the foreign agents act or to have been flat disbarred/disgraced or fled western countries and now shill so as not to be extradited. These aren’t viable/reliable sources of perspective just because they enjoy internet popularity. These are highly compromised individuals providing an outlet for a foreign power’s influence campaign which is designed to erode confidence and cause civil resistance and government disfunction. And no… you don’t need to listen to a broad depth of content from an Alex Jones type character to know it’s nonsense and bullshit. Similarly you don’t need to listen to not just pro but deliberate government controlled/influenced media to “get the real story” or whatever other BS. That’s like choosing to eat what is clearly a turd in between two slices of bread to find out for sure if you do or don’t like the taste. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Your exact statement “there isn’t enough time” Those are your words as to why you don’t cull more sources to form a broad collective understanding (you know what we do in the intelligence disciplines). So you’re going to waste that finite resources to listen to a podcast with direct ties to Russian media that has the aforementioned hosts on. Again, we don’t need to listen to Jones/Tucker/Maddow’s episode on a subject to understand the slants and bad research or blatant fabrications that will be baked into it. Because it isn’t news. Duran has exactly that problem only worse because of their direct ties to a geopolitical foe with an active IA campaign against NATO, Europe in general, and our own country/population. If you’re dumb enough to have to sit and listen too it in order to attempt to discover what’s real and what’s fake or highly corrupted in that, you’re wasting time, same as you’re doing here. But if you want to listen to Scott Ritter be interviewed in his opinions don’t waste the rest of your time here. You’ve got big important “facts” to discover. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

So now you want to play the “I was just asking a question” victim card? There are multiple alternatives mentioned in the just last few pages not alone this whole thread. Podcasters like Peter Zeihan Think tanks like Institute for study of war CSIS Brookings institute Council on foreign relations… Or maybe just use any number of media bias checks that exist that would tell you things like business insider and dubiously linked podcasts probably isn’t the place to be getting in depth truthful foreign policy analysis. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I like the part where you cut the entire part of my post out answering the questions you are now asking. Go google the names I mentioned that appear on the Duran and tell us why we should listen to them peddle their argument. Like I said I don’t think for a second you are arguing from a point of intellectual honesty, I think you’re just trying to be contrarian and are willing to ignore all the declassified info on Russian IA operations and demand further context to meet some impossible threshold. As was mentioned directly above, I don’t need to care if Alex Jones also thinks the sky is blue, there are plenty of places I can find the same information from somebody that doesn’t think things like chemtrails are making the frogs gay. Getting your “in depth analysis” of the Ukraine war from a podcast with direct ties to Russian state media/propaganda and acting like you’re informed because of it falls in that same category. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No kidding, and your lack of access would be why those of us finding your repeated defense of state sponsored propaganda so eye rolling. Why would we mention clear state funded propaganda like RT when discussing a podcast as radioactive as Duran Gee I wonder. Its owner writes for Russia News Now. Their chief operators all have ties to Russian media having either hosted or worked in those circles before. It has guests on like Scott Ritter to tell you how bad things from Ukraine is, or Cyrus’s Jannessen to provide you in depth analysis on China. If you believe that kind of discourse from sources as bad as that isn’t somehow tainted you’re part of the problem in circumventing Russia and China in their active influence campaigns. You don’t need to go listen to a disgraced spy/convicted pedo who repeatedly bad mouths his country to applause by the Russians to know what he is attempting to package. Duran isnt bringing you some informed perspective because they buck the norm, they are a tool of information warfare. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s a lot of noise to tell us we need to accept RT like it’s somehow not a proven outlet of state propaganda while attempting to cloak your BS in “nobody hates America.” And look now youre telling us “approved narratives” and other such tells. Yes obviously you are arguing from a point of honest debate… Nobody accused you of hating America, I accused Bashi of being a shill and in this case you of being simply contrarian for the purpose of arguing. Whatever your motivations are for doing that it’s your problem. Nobody can pass judgement on a podcast with direct links to a Russian propaganda outlet? We need to sample stupid from close range to not recognize it from afar? Did you notice I’m not the only one pointing out the nature of the source he openly admitted to following. Man what would cause that… I don’t know the fact some of us have more intimate knowledge of what’s going on over there than some Russia tied podcaster and enjoy the access (along with several others on here) to know that. By the way you have still yet to admit to whether RT is a reputable source of information or a state sponsored propaganda outfit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There isn’t “one bad review” or whatever of the given podcast we are talking about. To borrow your metaphor you would have to “ignore multiple closings for health code so you could see yourself what all the fuss is about.” No we don’t need to waste time and energy deciding of places with records like RT or others have a credible position.
