Don't you guys think all Ukrainians are nazis?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No? I think there is a Nazi problem, but that's it.

Though uh, the Ukrainian security chief is sounding like a Nazi here...

He's literally saying Russians = Asians = subhuman

Like???

I've seen one article parroted by Russian propaganda engines saying thus. Never seen a video or any other sources saying it.

Saving this comment for later whenever Western press gets around to covering the story.

Supposedly he said it on live TV. That'd be a hell of a thing for Russia to lie about lol

Oh yeah- like russia doesn't lie about obvious things. Bombing civilians at railways, bombing civilians sheltering under theaters, bombing civilians in maternity wards, bombing civilians in retirement homes etc etc etc.

I'd be willing to bet money someone is deliberately misquoted or changing context of somethig said.

[–] [email protected] -4 points 2 years ago

Lying about bombing civilians is standard in warfare. Everyone does it.

It definitely could be a misquote! That's why I'm saving your comment - I want to know if I'm wrong later.

Yeah- this right here. Thank you for pointing out the propaganda you guys feast on daily. That was exactly my point. Oh except for the part where you said no one said Ukrainians are nazis- plenty of you definitely say that.
