You keep talking to me like I’m defending communism. We’re not talking about that. I am not a communist.

I’m convinced that you didn’t read the article past maybe the first paragraph if you truly believe that the Athens police are responsible for the massacre. But sure buddy, whatever you need to tell yourself.

You are a bootlicker, plain and simple. Don’t care that its ad hominem. You clearly are incapable of criticizing someone with a such a dirty past as Winston Churchill, and I can’t for the life of me figure out why. You don’t have to fucking forsake your homeland or become a goddamn communist to say “yeah, maybe he shouldn’t have done that”.

But no, you’re just a gross human being.

It’s like playing chess with a pigeon. You don’t understand anything about geopolitics or history. You present an opinion piece from the guardian as some proof of something

You have a lot to learn.

  It’s kind of disrespectful that you’re not only being incredibly patronizing, but you clearly have not even read the article.

    I prefer to read history facts, not feels.

    And yet you STILL haven’t read the article I posted. Curious.

  Yeah, that’s not an opinion piece.

    Again, lol, from your source. Try reading it yourself!
    
    Then last month, a leading historian quoted in the piece, André Gerolymatos, held a conference in British Columbia on the issue, inviting one of the co-authors of the piece and some of the academics who had protested to the paper. When it was over, he sent me his analysis, based, he said, on British and American archival sources as well as memoirs and secondary accounts.
    
    He wrote: “Did the British open fire on the demonstrators on 3 December 1944? The answer is no

    I’m honestly not sure if you’re just incapable of reading, but that’s not what I posted.
    
    YOU are posting an opinion piece that was written in response to the well researched article written by Ed Vulliamy and Helena Smith.
    
    They put a link the the opinion piece you’re referring to in that article out of journalistic integrity.
    
    So either you’re purposely attempting to conflate the two articles and make the well researched, historically accurate article that I posted out to be some bullshit opinion piece, or you literally cannot read.
    
    So please, I beg of you. READ THE ARTICLE THAT I POSTED.
