you were invoking a siding with the "wrong team" should give one pause narrative
that's why I am chiming in
Oh.
But you didn't notice that it was Smitty that introduced the "wrong team" narrative? Or were you trying to so take exception with the call to pause because now that is the mainstream narrative? Suddenly you two , and I say two loosley because it is really a party of one plus one, have the popular thoughts on a matter? Let's get Dan Carlin on the horn!

popularity isn't relevant in determining what is correct
argument ad populum
attacking the messengers to discredit the message
ad hominem
how popular a narrative is or who is pushing the narrative

the Russians have launched an aggressive war of annihilation in contravention of Nuremberg
indiscriminately targeting civilian population centers in contravention of Hague & Geneva
and they have openly threatened us with thermonuclear war in an attempt at nuclear blackmail
so it is the Russians who have declared me to be their enemy, formally
so I'm not wrong
So say you. I'll wait for everyone's day in court. Present the evidence then I will decide. I am not moved by anything I have seen nor heard thus far. And it isn't from lack of trying.
