- Putin has decided to allow humanitarian corridors... for Ukrainians to go to his RUSSIA.
Fake.



- Putin is shelling civil targets. Please, someone out there deny this, I am eager for an excuse to post 50 photos here.
Technically true, but misleading at best. Deception comes from engaging opposing forces located inside of civilian buildings, vs just blindly carpet bombing whole cities, which is clearly not the case here.

Straw man. They may be not shelling whole cities but sure as shit they're hitting apartment buildings, private housing, hospitals, and people just driving the fuck away from the cities. Tell us more tales about evil forces hiding in those building though. What a pillock.

paxmao makes a claim that "Putin decided to allow humanitarian corridors... for Ukrainians to go to his RUSSIA", i refute it by providing a list of routes agreed by both sides, with many leading to Ukraine. And what do you do, you just come in with a proposed evacuation plan hoping no one would notice the difference? Way to go!

How many of those cities are fully encircled by Russia with no Ukrainian controlled links to Ukraine? Currently only Mariupol is fully besieged, and from your own diagram Russia proposed two evacuation routes from Mariupol, to Russia and Ukraine.

Russia has now fired more than 710 missiles against Ukraine and as of last night per UN reports civilian casualties are at 516 killed

There are plenty of video proofs of Ukrainian soldiers engaging from top/inside of buildings. These are fare game under the law of war. Can you come up with ANY previous "operation"/war by any nation where civilian targets weren't targeted?

Wait so this is your proof that all the reports from independent journalists on the ground, global intelligence officials, and actual civilians that were shelled are lying?

Have you considered that Putin could be targeting civilians in one area, and also, at the same time, but in a totally different area, Ukrainians could be fighting from top/inside buildings?  And when Russian state media says Ukraine is using civilians as human shields, they're just putin lies in your head?

I consider that all the time, I don't trust Putin's claims any more than you do, and no one should, but the thing is I don't trust the other side's claims either. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that civilians are not being shelled. In fact, we know for a fact that they are, and innocent people ARE dying every single day. War is hell, its never good. I'm just underlining the hypocrisy in coverage, pointing out how everyone is being activated under a hive mind, mass hysteria is being triggered to a point where people are ready to risk all human life on this blue marble. But facts just don't support the narrative of Putin as a blood thirsty monster trying to kill as many Ukrainians as possible. Every war is bad and has collateral damage, when we compare the numbers to other operations/wars there is nothing special about this one, if anything so far civilian casualties are lower when compared to other similar conflicts.

Sure all of it is bad, but if we want to stop it, shouldn't we start with the biggest offender?

Food for thought,

The largest Ukrainian diaspora is in Russia.
Since 2014, beginning of the conflict, number of Ukrainians in Russia only increased
Since the start of this "operation"/war 24 February 2022, despite checkpoints and Martial Law, 99,300 Ukrainian refugees somehow managed to flee to the aggressor Russia
48,000 Ukrainians had been evacuated from cities (but not from Mariupol)

With that in mind, ask yourself why innocent civilians are not being evacuated from Mariupol, the only besieged city with starving people. I could only come up with two options (do correct me if you can think of more)

Option 1 - Putin and his army generals have gone mad, going against all commons sense and military strategies, they fake 5 cease fires and delay the siege all just to continue keeping 400.000 innocent civilians inside the city before attacking it.
Option 2 - Army does what armies have done numerous times throughout the history when defending against a much larger force, they just don't want to die.

People are now booking Airbnb's in an effort to financially assist Ukrainians. While I'm not against donations, handing out your hard-earned money to some government BTC address doesn't actually guarantee you that it's being put into good use, helping those in need. As others have already mentioned, Ukraine  is one of the most corrupt nations in Europe, according to Guardian (2015), that's not the point though.

From my point of view, the Airbnb concept of donations doesn't sound bad.

When evacuation started you could pay the border guards to go first and those who had no money had to wait in lines. Ukrainians aren't saints but what point is there to make? Does anybody believe that there's less corruption in Russia? My father, who visited Russia a few times in the 90s, told me that when the police stopped a foreign car they asked for smokes and food if you had any. They'd be nice to you if offered chocolate, coca cola, cigarettes and alcohol.
Corruption is a normal thing in poor countries. It's present in Mexico, all throughout South America and in many parts of Africa. All the drug cartels wouldn't be able to thrive without politicians and military on their payrolls.

Bottom line is, we have a lot of corrupt countries, we have far right groups, we have countries that are small and weak and countries that are young, but nothing justifies what Russians are doing right now.
They are literally murdering unarmed people in broad daylight. A few days ago they shot a whole family on their way to a train station to leave the war zone. Parents and 2 children shot in the street. I saw a small child being resuscitated after a gunshot wound. Doctors were crying because they couldn't do anything. Russians targeted schools, hospitals, trucks of the red cross that carried aid, they shot and robbed a Swiss reporter, raped and killed a teenage girl. They're fucking animals.
There's a story told by a young Russian soldier who saw civilians being shot at and rushed with to help them take cover. He and the woman he was trying to protect were shot. He got wounded but survived, she did not. The woman's daughter saw it and got him help. He's now a POW, but at least will be able to look his family in the eye.

Not all of these people are bad, but this war isn't much different from the Balkans. Maybe some of you remember how the Serbs were singing songs about war criminals and murder. You can find those songs on youtube. How was that different from all those Russians with Z (zoophiles?) in their social profiles?

Do not die for Putin
...

- Putin has ordered a list of hostile countries to be compiled. His advisors told him that it might be much much faster to make a list of "Non-hostile" countries....

Please don't contribute to disseminating fakes

This really made me laugh! It is not news, it was meant to be sarcastic! The fact that you even considered as a possibility is hilarious.

 I have no idea of what conversations does Putin have with his advisors, nor if he has any advisor, nor if he actually talks with them nor if he listens in fact to anyone out there with a minimum of common sense. Maybe he is doing like Hitler right now, trying to order troops that do not exist to advance into Mars without anyone having the balls to tell him anything.

Well if it is "technically true" then it is true. Or somehow you have decided to carpet bomb "fakes" and this is an unintended collateral truth being killed in your effort?

So, in your view, not letting people leave and then attack civil buildings is acceptable, because Putin is not using high-altitude large load bombers. I suggest you place yourself in one of these cities to better understand why it is considered a war crime.

Please, do not Putinify reality here, this is not Putin's Russia TV and media, praising 24hrs a day your dictator without any possibility of providing real news.

I'm sure that the Ukrainian government is corrupt and has oppressed many people within its borders at various occasions, BTW, which is why I wouldn't donate to their official BTC addresses or anything like that.

To be fair, Putin and his rich buddies are largely responsible for corruption in Ukraine over the past 15+ years.

And If things go his way enough, it wouldn't be a surprise if a chunk of the donations end up in the pockets of Russians.  So you're not wrong.

Turkey is on its side, selling drones to Ukraine while inviting the Russian billionaires in.

Turkiye rejects any 'witch-hunt' against Russians, Russian culture

Quote
Turkiye’s president on Wednesday strongly rejected any moves resembling "a witch-hunt” against the Russian people, arts, scholars, or artists.

"Just as we would not abandon Ukraine, we also do not accept actions akin to a witch-hunt against the Russian people, literature, students or artists," President Recep Tayyip Erdogan told his Justice and Development (AK) Party's parliamentary group.

Citing Germany's Munich Philharmonic firing a Russian conductor over his support for Russian President Vladimir Putin, Erdogan said such "fascist practices" cast a shadow over Ukraine's "legitimate struggle" in resisting Russian troops by fueling a "climate of hatred and grudges and sowing new grievances."

Tbh it is a good strategy. I wouldn't trust hypocrites blindly neither.

Question to Ukrainians and Russians - Why am I receiving in social media pictures and video of crippled Russian soldiers bodies and corpses? Often with a message like "that your meat back, we dont need it". Or footages of destroyed military equipment. And all these video are with maximum aggression and bad language. I suppose I got all that because I use Cyrillic or post on Russian in social media. I am not Russian, I only speak that language. Or what the hell this is it at all? Propaganda or an act to threat me ? Or idea is to show me what is really going on in Ukraine right now?

Update your short info that you're not pro-Russia, but just speaking russian.
Can't do much other than that, maybe reporting and blocking the offenders?

I would say that that's a pretty good indication that you are doing something right.  Just doesn't happen to be what the international bankers who own the current petro-dollar debt-backed monetary system wish.



How is having failing currency, being isolated by the rest of the world, losing many lives in a war against smaller nation without getting any success is doing something right?

De-Nazification of Ukraine
We need De-Nazification of Putin's troops.

A very famous Nazi group of Russia's Troops is a German Nazi entrepreneur participating in Putins wars again and again. It's Wagner group and was involved already in Syria to keep Despot Assad in power and Putin hired Wagner's troops.
CEO of Wagner group is currently Dmitriy Utkin, a Russian Nazi: https://www.italy24news.com/world/391586.html

Quote
In 2022 images surfaced of Utkin purportedly showing Waffen SS collar tab and Reichsadler Eagle tattoos on his collar and chest. Additionally, several prominent members of the Wagner group have been photographed or recorded in Nazi uniforms or taking part in re-enactments of WWII events.

Bottom line is this Ukraine has plenty of issues to deal with, Azov is not the only one.
Other parts in the world in need of a little de-communism and then there is sunshine again.


At this point, I think it is Russia that has issues.  Here is Putin discussing his current predicament.

I saw the last clip a couple of days earlier, but ir was described as russian intruders stopping people from leaving Mariupol...
