They obviously hijack the political themes that they think will resonate with the population, but that should not lead to you looking with crossed eyes to any comment that discusses far-right radicalization on social media.
- politician 5y agoI agree, but now is not the moment for appearing to be an apparatchik.
- dessant 5y agoOn the contrary, this continues to be the time to hold your beliefs, and to express them. We should probably be more mindful about throwing such one-liners, anything can be twisted out of context.
- politician 5y agoI disagree, there is a time and place for everything.
- dessant 5y agoFor example, you're not supposed to post cheap remarks and allude to people being dishonest, just because you remembered a catchphrase from the news.
- politician 5y agoI wasn’t implying that you were being dishonest. I’m sure these are your sincerely held beliefs, but it still makes you look like a stooge for the Russians to be repeating their state media while they’re invading their neighbor.
