If voting "yes" on a referendum to be annexed is an accurate way of knowing that the majority of the populace supports annexation, does the same logic apply to Crimea being annexed by Russia? If not, why not?

If voting “yes” on a referendum to be annexed

inventing some history again are you? because this never happened. if you have to stoop this low to try to “score points” how much lower will you stoop?

So you don't have an argument and have to make shit up. Cool. Judging by your other responses in the thread, you're a shill trying to astroturf support for the U.S., so Imma block you 💅

“I know you are but what am I?” is not a convincing argument. most people learn this when they’re 5.

nah, just argue the facts, which I provide. you don’t like it and hurl childish insults in response. blocking me is doing ME a favor. bye!

this never happened

Uhhh https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2014/03/16/290525623/crimeans-vote-on-splitting-from-ukraine-to-join-russia

The referendum had widely been expected to pass; Crimea's parliament has already voted to seek annexation by Russia...

Update at 3 p.m. ET: The Polls Are Closed; 93 Percent Approval Cited

there’s moving the goalposts, then there’s moving them 55 years into the future and to the other side of the planet.

We’re taking about Hawaii here. you’re so lost and hate the US and “The West™®©” so much that you think this is one of your Ukaine/Russia arguments. WOW….

You said "[a yes vote on Russia annexing Crimea] never happened."
I showed that it did.
You responded with "We’re taking about Hawaii here."

Get the fuck out of here

You said “[a yes vote on Russia annexing Crimea] never happened.”

YOU said that. keep your words out of my mouth.

I showed that it did.

you know everyone can see your comments and my comments, right? that is very much not what happened, as anyone with eyeballs can see. I’m sorry that you’re having trouble seeing reality. consult a physician.

You responded with “We’re taking about Hawaii here.”

because we are, despite your attempts to change the subject. are you lost again?
