I think we should rename that effect after the man who invented it: the Musk-Dunning-Kruger effect
Bro China is not real, it's just the back of Taiwan.
I thought I replied to nostradiel above who was stating "I would be extremely careful about these claims from Ukrainian officials. They showed before that they are capable of anything to have attention of mainstream press and western countries. Itโs propaganda on both ends - Russian and Ukrainian."
For some reason my reply ended up under Quacksalber, which is not what I intended. I thought I was careful before, but maybe I did not pay enough attention to where I replied to. I am not willing to call this a kbin bug yet, maybe I did not pay attention.
