Dude, I'm an American. I've lived in three countries and I've travelled around the world. I read a lot and I've looked at tons of sources, all of which are clearly at the bottom (and one of which is fucking Glenn Greenwald).
I am NOT Soviet Propaganda you dump fuck. I made it clear, Russia invading is just as horrific as W Bush invading Iraq. At the same time, I do think he doesn't have the forces to hold Ukraine and he knows it. Russia is creating checkpoints to get civilians out, but thousands of people are still dying. Zelensky could have ended this weeks ago. I don't think Russia will hold Ukraine or has intention of doing so (if they do, I think it will only be half of it).
Screaming "Soviet Propaganda" at everything you disagree with just makes you seem like a fucking dumbshit moron. Think for yourself and learn to entertain ideas you don't agree with.
LOLS, you're an idiot, to start with.
I suggest you discuss your serious social issue with your mother and come back after she's done something to improve your foul mouth
You're barking mad and you have no idea why. Your ideas are being challenged and you don't like it. Tough.
The Soviets invaded a sovereign nation using the same false pretenses they used to invade Crimea.
The Soviets have shipped Ukrainian hostages inside the Soviet borders as hostages. Tens of thousands of them. For no good reason. The civilians could easily have been sent through the lines to their own forces.
The people dying are dying because there is a SOVIET ARMY preventing them from getting aid from their countrymen.
The Soviets have bombed hospitals, schools, murdered tied and blindfolded civilians .
The only propaganda I see here is your insistence that the Ukraine can surrender to the Soviets.
Thank you, Prime Minister Chamberlain.
Suggesting that surrender to a foreign invader is a solution shows your support for your Soviet masters.
The Soviet economy is crashing and that's your real concern.
LOLS, you're an idiot, to start with.
I'm not. I have a bachelors, masters, three publications, have lived in three countries, have travelled to fourteen. I'm not an idiot. This is not an argument, it's an ad hominem attack and a poor start.
I suggest you discuss your serious social issue with your mother
Leave my dead mother out of this. She was an amazing woman and she probably would have loved you despite the fact that you're being a complete asshole.
The Soviets invaded a sovereign nation using the same false pretenses they used to invade Crimea.
The Soviets are gone. If you mean the Russian government, that's entirely different. Are they autocratic? yes. Are they just as evil as George W Bush when he invaded Iraq for no reason? Absolutely. However, The US was unprovoked against Iraq. Russia is watching NATO push membership to bordering nations. The security threat is a real one. It doesn't justify war, but it's a bigger threat than Iraq was to the US.

Source? From what I've gathered. Russians (not Soviets, I don't know why you still exit in the cold war) have made checkpoints to help get civilians out of areas. Patrick Lancaster has several videos/dispatches showing this. On top of this, Russians are allowing Uranian civilians to leave conflict areas. Ukraine is preventing men from leaving, and forcing conscription.

All the evidence from that recent rocket attack shows that it came from Ukrainian forces: https://eprimefeed.com/latest-news/the-serial-number-of-the-rocket-that-fell-on-kramatorsk-showed-that-it-belonged-to-ukraine/55337/
Patrick Lancaster's videos show lots of Ukrainian soldiers using civilian areas as shield:

Look, you and I don't know what's really going on. There is a massive fog of war. American news agencies are pushing insane propaganda. Did you read my article? Did you read the section about how ever initial news report turned out to be false. How do you know what's really going on?
Just look at these headlines. There are videos of Uranian troops shooting Russian POWs in the legs, after being captured. That's literally a war crime. Now low at how the headlines are dressing that up with titles like "Videos purportedly show" .. or articles suggesting that Russian troops are shooting themselves in their own legs!

Meanwhile you have shit outlets like The Sun, which just lost a massive defamation case to Project Veritas, trying to claim Russian has lost 40,000 troops, an absolutely insane and obviously false claim (America lost 50k soldiers in the ENTIRE multiyear Vietnam war)
You are not an idiot, but you are very impassioned. You believe without thinking; ideological. The media is lying to all of us, and it's impossible to really determine what's going on. Your response is really shitty. You can have a rational discussion were we look at sources and make arguments. But you drone on about "Soviets" instead and call me some kind of propaganda (trust me, I run zero ads and I'm not getting thousands of people to my person blog).
I think you're emotional an ill-informed, but honestly that's pretty typical for most of the human population these days.
SOVIET PROPAGANDA
There's a huge difference between voluntarily joining an organization and INVADING A SOVERIEGN NATION BECAUSE YOU'RE BUTTHURT.
PUTIN AND STALIN - SAME COIN, SAME GOAL.
