      Could you cite your source that WSJ is part of an organised disinformation campaign to kill Ukrainians?

      Oh buddy, the organized disinformation campaign about Ukraine has been on the part of the US and has been going on since at least 2008. You’re just finally seeing it unravel and you’re disoriented.

          The Eastern provinces that the neonazi-led Ukrainian government was ethnically cleansing, and who had been asking for Russia’s help (and to join Russia) since long before February of of 2022? Yes. Yes, they should be Russia.

              Appreciate the informative list of links! (Very common u/davel W).

              Also lol at my comment being reported to mods as propaganda for stating a simple, verifiable fact. Always funny how the dronies think it’s “propaganda” just for going against what they want to believe even when their beloved western sources reported on it back before it became no-no to do so. (A NATO No-No, if you will). I’d ask what instance the [redacted] reporter was from, but I guess that might give away exactly who it was.

                The Russiagate hoax has a second purpose aside from smearing Trump. It’s to train people that anything anyone says that goes against the imperial core is a “[gepolitical enemy] talking point” and therefore fake news. It’s a “guilty by association” con, much like McCarthyism.

              Yes, and Hitler didn’t meet the criteria for high blooded Aryan. The idea thata Jewish president couldn’t possibly support neo-Nazis flies directly in the face of the actual documented and oft-reported evidence

                I thought that idea would disappear after Netanyahu absolved Hitler from holocaust, but alas.

          They are not a brainwashed pro-NATO dronie that keeps going ‘everybody who contradicts the people that say, “Iraq has WMDs” must be spreading disinformation!’ Seems like you think that everybody who doesn’t buy your propaganda is Russian for some reason.

            The irony of these people who are just utterly saturated by western imperialist propaganda (which they refuse to acknowledge) while calling everything even slightly critical of the NATO narrative “rUsSiAn DiSiNfOrMaTiOn” will never cease to amaze and disappoint me.

              Ukraine has refused to negotiate peace repeatedly, which would have avoided the destruction.

              Also, you seem fine with NATO having invaded Iran, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Afghanistan, Palestine, etc., with Ukraine participating in at least the invasions of Iraq and Syria, so it’s incredibly silly of you to go ‘but what about the destruction?’ You are literally supporting the most prolific invader in the world.
              Post-coup Ukraine decided to bring NATO’s weapons and soldiers to the border of Russia’s most populated parts. The rest of the world (including Russia) has every right to defend itself from your vile empire.

                I may not actually know this, how did they not negotiate that justifies being invaded by Russia?

                I might’ve honestly missed something.

                  If you do not know about the two Minsk treaties, and what caused them to break down, then you really ought to research those before making any claims about the conflict.

                  how did they not negotiate

                  What do you mean? Are you actually not aware of the Ukrainian state to continue the bloodshed, including since the escalation of 2022?

                  that justifies being invaded by Russia?

                  The most prolific invader force in the world - NATO - decides to amass weapons and military personnel on its target’s most important border (due to the fact that the most populated parts of Russia are located close to it). How should NATO’s target respond to defend itself?
