"MOSCOW – Officials from the Kremlin, under the close supervision of Russian President Vladimir Putin, have concluded an autopsy of Alexei Navalny, concluding that the recently-deceased opposition leader spontaneously sentenced himself to 30 years in a remote Siberian gulag before then ingesting his own poison that he brought from home."

No. It's Russia, and about enemies of evil people. Only a fucking moron doesn't think it was intentional.

Of course, and I'm happy to believe you. I assume it was intentional, but that's not an assumption based on any facts. Can you show me some facts on which a reasonable person could base an assumption? "Trust me bro" has historically been an awful source.

Right now in America, it is the case that plenty of people aligned with the Democrats have a good reason to want Joe Biden dead. If he were to die suspiciously tomorrow, would it be reasonable to say that it must have been Republicans who did it?

I’m so sorry but you’re all over the place, which group of democrats “wants Joe Biden dead”?

I’d be super wary of interacting with the above user because they actually appear to be arguing in bad faith in an effort to just seed wild claims.

Umm, all the Democrats who want to beat trump, for one. All the ones who hate genocide too. I wasn't saying actively seeking, just prefer dead to not dead.
