    Yes, I am sure that is the kind of brilliant policy recommendation that Germany's fearless leaders will promulgate to the serfs as they shiver inside their homes this winter.

    Are you suggesting "more clothes" wouldn't help you stay warm?

    I am suggesting that it's the kind of blithe, contemptuous response that I've come to expect from liberal politicians who clearly hate their people.

    Where do you come up with this fantasy that anyone will be shivering? Natural gas will be widely available as will far less expensive alternatives. I get that you are paid to spread this nonsense but shouldn't you at least make your propaganda at least slightly believable? To stop people laughing at you if nothing else.

    I don't consider my views at all extreme at this point.

    Yours, on the other hand, I do.

    Yeah, I joined this forum in 2010 as a sleeper cell for Putin. You totally exposed me.

    That's because you're just as a blinkered as you were back when you were posting articles from RT.

    German politicians have decided that it's more important to fuel a proxy war in Ukraine than it is to provide all their citizens with energy this winter.

    Actually, yes, that was around the time that the troll farms starting operating. Around 2008-2010. Anyway, the sock puppet accounts probably just get shared with every new employee at the troll farm.

    How much is the Biden government paying you to spread their propaganda, by the way? Or are you one of Zelenskyy's people?

    Yes, everyone who disagrees with you and the government are working for Putin. It's all so obvious.

    Sounds like you're projecting. How long have you been on the US GOV payroll?

    Does that pay much? I'm renovating my house and could use a few thousand. The costs of timbers for flooring are horrendous.

    Half the people on this forum probably work for the government. Normal people generally do not spend time on political forums. The only reason I ever became interested in them is because of 9/11 and my military service. But unlike most of the people who join the military, I didn't become a mindless flag-waving goon and jingoist after I left.

    There is energy. What part of that confused you? I do agree past German politicians made poor choices shut down nuclear plants, banning fracking (remember in 2000 the EU produced gas greater than total Russian imports in 2020 but stupid left wing green policies has caused natural gas production to decrease rapidly), and foolishly ever trusting unreliable Russians. Again, storage is full and around 80 LNG ships arrive each month so supply is there.

    Isn't killing Russians a good goal for any German?

    Regurgitating US GOV and NATO propaganda does not require much skill or intelligence, so I doubt it pays well.

    Oh, I see. Facts scare you. That is understandable as facts debunk your propaganda efforts.

    Does killing Russians put food on their table or heat in their homes?

    I'm sorry, but I don't have time to explain basic economics to you right now. Maybe you can ask your CIA handler to explain it for you?

    The thing is the Germans bent over backwards to try to be nice and cooperative with the Russians but, as they learned, a criminal thug like the dictator Putin can never be trusted and will always lie.

    So are you going to tell everyone how much the Biden administration is paying you to spread their lies or not?
