The Duran on geopolitics

In October 2023, Alex Mercouris of The Duran said, "Let's talk about the geopolitics of this because we now have multiple crises." The Duran is a favorite YouTube channel of CP's resident Nazi hunter.

Not only does Steve Banon have a subscription to the Financial Times, but Alex Christorforou reads the Financial Times to gain info too

Newsflash: Not only does Steve Banon have a subscription to the Financial Times, but Alex Christorforou of the Duran reads the Financial Times to gain info too as can be seen here: EU takes on China.

There goes your illogical, genetic fallacy argumentation. You just have to admit that you are badly informed about international politics due to your self-imposed bubble boy world. I am so glad that I continue to read a wide variety of sources to be informed. Conservative (talk) 22:01, May 15, 2024 (EDT)

By the way, my degree of respect for The Duran went down. Alexander Mercouris recently claimed that China was a rising power despite China facing some very serious financial problems (Property crisis, high youth unemployment, etc.). Conservative (talk) 22:06, May 15, 2024 (EDT)

According to you, London and Athens are not in the West. So I don't know what to tell ya.

I read the Financial Times, too.

I'm glad you have figured out how people acquire information. Your progress is noted. RobS^{The Truth. Just Putin It Out There}

My personal pages merely reflect notes to myself and not a message to the general public. While it is true that those two gentlemen reside in the Western cities of London/Athens, they do take a decidedly pro-Russia and pro-China views. Maybe not as unadulterated pro-Russia/China views as most people from those countries, but decidedly pro-Russia/China views. For me, when I know and/or believe that Russia/China are right, it is right that I agree with them, but where I know/believe that they are wrong, I disagree with them.

Yep. It gives insight how your brain works.

You evidently don't understand what the East-West conflict is, or what the Duran is. RobS^{The Truth. Just Putin It Out There} 00:11, May 16, 2024 (EDT)

Interesting, your views on what you think is "the West" is a good example of splitting (psychology) - all or nothing thinking. Westerners carrying on the Western tradition of free speech and political pluralism are outside the fold in your fascist worldview. RobS^{The Truth.

Ok. But I don't care what you think because you are frequently illogical, lie and engage in cognitive distortions such as splitting. And you are often malevolent, angry and engage in petty axe grinding. So why in the world would I care what you think? I have more important things to be concerned about. That is the conclusion that I have come to at this point. But you have given me a great lesson on how not to be. Hopefully, you will repent and change. Conservative (talk)

Your anger and hatred toward other people is destroying, and has destroyed Conservapedia. And no, 7,000,000 inorganic bot hits on the Atheism and Homosexual agenda articles to serve your narcissistic pride is not a real community of editors and readers. RobS^{The Truth. Just Putin It Out There}

You claim you read the Financial Times when I noted that Alex Christorforou reads the publication as does Steve Bannon. I don't believe you read the Financial Times as your past commentary on the Chinese economy was very uninformed and naive (You cited the paid YouTube Chinese propagandist Cyrus Janssen on main page right and I called you out on it).

Also, Alex Christorforou and the other host of The Duran recently commented on the inflation in Russia. I found it amusing that they didn't talk about the sky-high prices of butter or potatoes in Russia (Potatoes are a Russian staple. Prices for potatoes have risen by 74% since last December 2023[1]). Alexander Mercouris is a former British leftists so he is likely not up to speed on the topic of economics. This is ironic since military power rest on economic power given the high cost of fielding a military and he frequently talks about the war in Ukraine.

Well duh. Why do you advertise what an idiot you are? RobS^{The Truth. Just Putin It Out There} 20:33, November 26, 2024 (EST)

If you truly believe I am an idiot, then take me up on my challenge at My intellectual dual challenge to RobSmith given on 11-26-2024. Unless of course, you are too scared to! Conservative (talk) 09:58, November 28, 2024 (EST)
