    This is just getting sad now. The Russians are winning, there’s no more denying that. If this war was going as well as the media says, then the capitol of Ukraine wouldn’t be suffering from a blackout and prepping for mass casualities from civillians freezing in the next two months. We are watching a calamity in real time and being told it’s a triumph for the defenders.

      Silly commie, don’t you know that the real victory is to die for our western overlords’ profits?

      Western media: “The courageous Ukrainian military (who aren’t Nazi btw, it’s all lies) are winning so hard, that the orcs in their impotent rage are resorting to cowardly murder! And because they’re incompetent orcs they can’t even just bomb civilians, they instead try to create blackouts!”

      Exaggerating here, but I wouldn’t be surprised if articles like this will actually get written. Or at least posted as “opinion pieces”.

    The evacuation part stirs my tinfoil hat. Perhaps they are planning to go ahead with the dirty bomb idea?

      Possible, but more likely is that they’re evacuating because of the coming winter. The lack of heating makes the homes death traps. Better to evacuate people to cities that still have it.

      Ukrainian government has been so “good” with it’s treatment of civilians that the only time they even plan preemptive evacuation we assume the worst. Ain’t this fucked…

        We’re talking about the government that was giving out AKs to pretty much randos from the very offset of the war, released convicted child rapists and employs literal cannibals in their forces while being lauded for all.

        Fucked doesn’t quite cover it I’m afraid

      The article is from RT. It’s Russian propaganda not worth reading.

      I think plenty do. Or even always have. But what choice is there? They’re being told that the Russian army is coming to cleanse them off the face of the Earth. And even those who don’t buy it - what are they going to do, demand Zelenksy stand down? See how well that goes.
