Given that Russian doctrine is all about disinformation and deflection, is he actually worth listening to until there is something on the table?
I mean, Oncophage has been on the table for 16 years, I think it it was the world's first oncovaccine.

It's a good stance to take with all "scientific breakthrough" articles. Poopsci is notorious for overhyping and just flat out misrepresentation. It's where the notorious "10 more years until fusion" meme came from. The actual engineers working on the project weren't the ones saying that.
Because russia is also a brutal imperialist horror show?
Downvote for ableist 4chan meme. Don't reinforce white supremacy.
I've been through that before. It's just a repackaged "use slurs for good" excuse that cryptofash use to excuse their use of neo-fascist parlance.
I'm not calling you cryptofash but pointing out how you're using a lot of the same tools as they do. That alone should give you pause.
EDIT: The fact that you thought that's what I was saying should also give you pause because that's really weird.
Last time I checked self-awareness makes you more insane, not less. And the worst part is that you'll be completely oblivious to it all. Everyone around you will know and they'll keep it to themselves while you continue to spiral further and further down that rabbit hole.
Why are you defending Russia for engaging in a practice that you obviously take issue with?
Whataboutism.
Well. That's a first.
Really they're barking up the wrong whataboutree.
Because Russia is so good at it and effectively does it all the time as well as it being doctrine.
