This is too rich. They’re making found footage style horror films to use for propaganda. Complete with the filmmaker, Yuliia Paieveska, being nowhere to be found to corroborate any of it. This could be real, of course, but everything about it feels way too hollywood.

The propaganda is getting desperate to compensate for declining interest.

    Whether true, partially true, or outright propaganda, I always remind myself that this war, like all wars, did not have to happen and can end today if the powers-that-be want it to end. They do not want it to end.

        At this point the war is an endurance match between Russia and the US: Whose economy is going to hold out longer?

          Considering the west is facing fuel and food shortages and Russia is not (and neither are China and India who have been stocking up on Russian oil and have stopped exporting grain so they can still feed their people when shit hits the fan), i would say Russia is currently winning hands down.

          The US is in a somewhat better position than Europe because technically they could probably be food and energy self-sufficient, so the US is likely going to throw the EU under the bus but inflation is still gonna hit hard for them too. In the end their system is unlikely to be able to switch to autarky though.

      Every mention of the trials against the Azov Nazis has “war crimes” in quotes. Because apparently we’re taking the stance that Azov never did anything wrong.

      They pretty much deny the 8 year assault on Donbas too.

      I’m (apparently) involved in an argument on Twitter with 3 people who claim to be Ukrainians who swear up and down that nothing is happening in Donbas. There’s nothing I hate more than people playing dumb about shit we all know is the case.

        Funny when you meet Donbass residents in VK that tell you horrors of 8 year war. About everyday artillery strikes, everyday reports of people killed by UAF, about miserable life in unrecognized republics, when you know that’s the only country in the world that supports you prefers to ignore you and make deals with country that trying to destroy you despite agreements.

        And then some libs just start screaming about how all of it is actually their fault, how they should had given up and became again part of Ukraine, and actually they lying about artillery strikes, because good Ukrainians cannot break the agreements, so Donbass is shooting themselves, or being shot by Russia, so they must give up.

          They originally wanted to stay as part of Ukraine, but Ukraine offered them only ukrainization, shock therapy and eventually death.

    Remember those are the people who badly photoshop their own president and then seriously try to use that.
