I’ve also seen something like “Ukraine did it, but the people there are Russian agents so it’s OK” and “it’s a civil war between Ukraine and Russian separatists”
The amount of westerns that I’ve seen who mock and/or celebrite the shellings of DPR LPR where people are wounded and killed… that’s the “right side of the history” for you
Forgot “Akschually it was Russia shelling”
I’d wager they consider that to be “they shelled themselves”, because they see them as “Russian separatists” (I wonder why they’d want to separate from the country trying to kill them)
Ukraine says it from their first strike. And their first strike was on civilians in center of Lugansk.
Pretty much my point, yeah
Forgive my use of the term, but the liberal narrative for Donbas and the genocide is downright schizophrenic. Either it never happened, Russia did it, or those people don’t even exist to begin with. One thing is always consistent: They don’t think it’s a big deal.
