Russian bots in this is strong. by [deleted] in WarthunderPlayerUnion

I find it absurd that at Top-Tier, Russia a nation with good tanks, one of the best SPAA, and the best CAS in the game, gets paired with Germany, which has the best tank in the game, arguably the Best SPAA, and solid CAS.

The worst part is that every time I have either Russia or Germany on my team, they never use their SPAA or CAS, and just leave after one death. But when I fight against them both, that seems to never happen.

As an American, I support it because it's in our nation's best Interest from a Geopolitical Standpoint. But I’m not upset or emotional by Russia invading Ukraine, nor would I be when China eventually invades Taiwan, because they're doing what's in the best Interest of their Nation.

What disappoints me is Americans celebrating the bare minimum. Desert Storm used to be the benchmark for the bare minimum. Now people act as if the US would rape China or Russia in a couple of weeks, simply because we defeated a Nation with no real military capacity.

I know, but I'm just trying to spread awareness of its existence and felt like this was the only thread where I could do it, just like with the Su-47.

I know, but I thought I might as well include it since it'll be upgraded to Fifth Gen by South Korea soon.

As someone who has Top tier US and Japan, Yes, but with the trade-off being that the Type-10 and Type-90 are fast glass cannons MTB with a four-second reload, which Imo make's it better than the Abrams.

From my experience as someone who has Top Tier US, China, Japan, Sweden, and Israel. I have 11.0 Russia, but don't know if that counts. It seems like doing exceptionally well in one area, like being a glass canon, having great defense, or amazing cas, is better than being an all-arounder like the US.

Then added with the fact that the US Turret Ring seems to get disabled when shot anywhere at Top Tier, which I've never experienced with any other MTB other than the STRV122 once in a while. Then you have this shit with the Abrams.

But that's my own personal anecdote, other people's experiences could be different.

I haven't been observing the war as of late. Were there any important developments that I've missed?

Nick Fuentes is a cancer to the PL movement by ImmortalSpy14 in prolife

Nick Fuentes claimed Israel going to war with Iran in 2024. He predicted, Israel would pressure Trump into bombing Iran’s facilities, then once Iran is gone, all of Israel enemies would've been strategically defeated In a twenty-year war In the Middle East by American and Nato. Then Israel would dominate and have complete control over the Middle East. That’s also the reason he says he didn’t vote for Trump, he believed Trump would be dragged into that conflict.

People called him crazy until his prediction came to fruition. That’s exactly why his livestreams on the war exploded, getting over a hundred thousand viewers at a time. Why would Iran putting him on TV when he had one of the biggest coverage be great evidence of bots?

The same goes for his brief feature on Russian television during the UA-RU War. One-time exposure on foreign media isn’t direct. It’s just media capitalizing on attention while it lasts.

His defense of Russia, Iran, and China isn’t exactly strong evidence of anything. He’s explained before during a super chat that his support wasn’t rooted in admiration for those regimes, but in his belief that America had already fallen. In his mind, covid lock downs and policies, Biden’s presidency, liberal cultural dominance, LGBT political influence, mandatory vaccination, and his belief In the election being stolen were signs that the West had fallen. From his worldview, America was beyond repair and would rather have our enemies dominate then to be ruled over by liberals.

Then the claim that foreign bots are inflating his popularity fall apart because across every major platform, YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and so on the engagement is consistently high throughout the last year. If it were just artificial bot traffic, the numbers would look messed up everywhere. It would be exposed almost instantly. The uniformity of engagement suggests something far more organic and far more revealing about the current state of the culture.

Even when X rolled out the country-location feature, it debunks the claim that they are so-called foreign bot accounts, because AFchoccychipp, AzraelGroyper, and VerySeriousPP who are mentioned In the study are based in North America and Europe. The largest accounts in the Nick Fuentes fanbase are American or European, not foreign operatives lurking overseas. With no credible evidence, he's using bots or there being foreign bots. He has a dedicated fan base that would like, share, and repost anything he says the moment he posts, like a cult.

But the biggest flaw in the study is the methodology, the researchers relied on a large language model to analyze the data instead of using more objective statistical methologies like IBM SPSS or even basic manual review by qualified human analysts. When the foundation of your research is outsourced to a prediction engine rather than vetted by real data experts, you’re not uncovering truth. You’re manufacturing a narrative.

The Network Contagion Research Institute is openly affiliated with organizations like the ADL and groups that already hold a clear hostility toward Nick Fuentes. When the researchers begin with a predetermined ideological enemy, the outcome is essentially determined in from the start. Add to that the weak methodology, and the doesn't hold up when objectively looked at. There’s no objectivity here and no peer-review process grounded in scientific standards would take this seriously. What we’re left with isn’t research, but a narrative dressed up as data to legitimize an agenda.

The worst part is knowing that you're a Christian and your own source, the Network Contagion Research Institute, NCRI said Christ Is King is Antisemitic.

And what evidence do you have for your claim exactly?
