My coworker is an idiot and can’t explain his own thoughts. Nice guy though.
He said he was reading and discovered that Ukrain started the Russian war by building a Dam that would starve a community of water. He didn’t know when or where, but was sure it was before any invading or annexing.
I can’t find any information on this. I’ve been googling and googling. Nothing. I can’t ask him for sources because if I get him going again he won’t stop.
Please help if you know anything.
Hey, I’m back. Tried to tell him Russia the started the war, but it he was so adamant about this dam. I had no knowledge of it was impossible to break through.
Probably not going to go back to my coworker, because I just can’t afford to open that can of worms. But I did genuinely need to know. I live in a disinformation riddled hotspot. I try to stay on top of the truth and the small truths bad actors sprinkle in the lies.
Well now you are armed with that info for next time. I too have trouble standing up to misinformation. It’s a problem where I won’t just spout things I haven’t verified and can source, no matter how true I THINK it is. It’s baffling how others can just howl into the nothing about things they heard somewhere and are positive it’s true.
Last time I was sure of a point during one of those sorts of discussions it was amazing to see the deflation in the room. “What do you mean?”
I mean you guys are idiots, here’s where you can verify that. I didn’t say that because neither of them seem that far gone, they are the helpful idiots. And suddenly the whining about being a victim of a non existent problem quieted down.
