ORAC, actually, this thread about the Ukrainian crisis.
And switching from a subject to personality is a bad practice.
Returning the ball, I suggest you go chat to your boss, I do not have one, sorry. But I have my own brains to filter the data no matter where they come from.
It always amazes me how often people talk about subjects they never touched in reality or closely dealt with. Have you ever been to Russia, Ukraine, Crimea, Donbass? I did, and I do have friends and relatives on both Russian and Ukrainian sides. The whole problem in Ukraine cannot be painted in black and white (by any side). It's a civil war in the Eastern Ukraine, and all sides are responsible for that (including Russia supporting separatists and the West supporting ultra-nationalists that took power after the coup).
