Actually what? You stalked another user on another meme post about another topic to make no point at all. Are you a bit dim?

@Amnesigenic@lemmy.ml - what's your defense?

Nobody ever said that they‘re all Nazis, not even the meme.

Also, you started by citing fiction to make a point using whataboutism.

You are not a sincere person.

What‘s your perspective on Trump‘s motion to increase and secure US rule over the Americas?

Axel Springer cares fuck all about anything other than their profits, their power in German politics and being a narrative setter.

By saying „they did a very good job, …“ but after the comma instead of explaining, why you think they did a good job, you start a deflection, you immediately discredit yourself as a supposed good faith actor.

Care to try again, FactChecker?

e: oh, you‘re that kind of account. alright, bring it!

Because it's very likely not real. These are unverifiable, imaginary numbers published by Axel Springer, the worst German journalism has to offer.

In regards to the author, the Bellingcat description says:

He was previously a freelance trainer for Bellingcat.

He is a "a trainer of media professionals specialised in new media, social media and data journalism", "thought leader" and "visiting lector of Axel Springer Akademie in Berlin" according to this profile. He consults, teaches, sells books about his methods, but does not do investigative reporting himself (as it seems).

So, he's legit as in that kind of way, sure is involved in stuff. But not neccessarily in a way that boosts his trustworthiness in regards of the journalistic integrity of the reporting done here.

All the students are from Axel Springer‘s trainee program, the notorious publisher known for its misinformation, slandering and yellow press. Absolutely not known for its investigative journalism, that would be a new one. Heavily biased pro capitalist, pro Ukraine, pro Israel.

The story also was published behind a paywall, around two weeks after the analysis from dronewatch.eu debunking almost all the drone sightings.

Although officials in Denmark, Germany and Belgium have repeatedly suggested Russian involvement, the data tells a different story. Only three cases involved confirmed Russian drones — all in countries bordering Ukraine: Poland, Romania and Moldova.

This means that the often-mentioned link to Russian hybrid warfare in Western Europe is still unsubstantiated. And even if, at some point, drones were observed flying in formation — as the Belgian defence minister has claimed several times — that does not automatically point to a state actor.

I press DOUBT.

To be fair, that's called a coup and it was initiated and supported by the west. Enjoy some in depth reading through the topic page. The BBC (and other mainstream media) sadly is not a trustworthy source for reporting that's critical of western imperialism and its war efforts (compare to highly partisan Anti-Palestine reporting).

To understand the current US-NATO war against Russia over Ukraine, it is critical to review the background and implications of the 2014 far-right coup in Kiev, which overthrew the pro-Russian President Viktor Yanukovych. The coup was openly supported by US and European imperialism and implemented primarily by far-right shock troops, such as the Right Sector and the neo-Nazi Svoboda Party.

Sweet, Hotznplotzn, already more clever than the crap you cited further up. I don't have the energy or time now to clean up after you again, of course that makes things easier for you.

But a neo-con FDP think tank with a dissident from the times of the attempted Hong Kong colour revolution as the author of the report, good stuff, good stuff.

Interesting that you always dig up people supported by the West. Is that about the same as when people here are supported by Russia or China, or doesn't that work in this direction because those are our enemies after all?

Everybody really should know by now what "freedom" (Freiheit) means to the FDP (neo-con liberal party with 3,5 %), namely FUCK THE POOR AND WORKERS, MAKE WAY FOR CAPITAL. And that's why we should, of course, treat any report about an ideologically different nation state that such a foundation shits out with the credibility you would like us to.

I would love to support such dissidents, if they weren't always so conspicuous with their capitalist freedom fantasies.

Lol, that's like a report that you'd find in similar kind in any country. Pretty sure any reporting on that would be from a source that you as a chauvinist, sinophobic propagandist would dismiss. Point being, this fucker got caught. And you are a propagandist and should be permabanned.

And you consider that a credible source?

An obscure Western "NGO," a private foundation with opaque funding structures, with one co-founder being American and the other a Swede who was already imprisoned in China and then deported, two bros in their thirties who already ran similar setups before this NGO, e.g., Chinese Urgent Action Working Group. The "Safeguard Defenders" from the West, with the explicit mission statement of meddling in China's affairs, which states:

supports local field activities that contribute to the protection of basic rights, promote the rule of law, and enhance the ability of local civil society and human rights defenders in some of the most hostile environments in Asia

or

Asia is among the most world's most repressive regions in terms of freedom of speech and has one of the worst records in persecuting journalists.

Well, they definitely have a mission, that's for sure. How would we perceive that here, i.e., the other way around, hmmmm?!

Xinhua News Agency January 19, 2016

Recently, the national security organs and the public security organs jointly cracked a case of endangering national security, successfully defeating an illegal organization that has long received overseas financial support, trained and funded a number of "agents" in China in the name of the "China Rights Protection Emergency Assistance Group", and engaged in criminal activities that endanger national security. Criminal suspects such as Peter Yesper Darling (Swedish nationality) have been taken criminal coercive measures in accordance with the law.

I'm sure they've never had anything to do with any Three-Letter-Agency and are totally not biased or anything. And we also know, everything that comes from China is bad and evil and lies and so on (as showcased once again with the article you posted).

Interestingly, seemingly the same people who already reported on the ominous Chinese police stations in Western nations.

That's why we should take everything these nice gentlemen report very seriously, you're absolutely right, Chief Lemmy Propagandist (Section Germany) Hotznplotzn.
