    Why don’t you research that yourself, look for news sources that aren’t western media or their “we’re abso not western media, but still tout their narratives” lap dogs and you’ll start seeing a wildly different story

      Two great assumptions here; that I don’t already read “non-western news sources” and that any different narrative is somehow more true?

      Just because Putin says he’s “liberating” Ukraine doesn’t make it any more true than when the Nazis said they were “liberating” Poland. Non-western sources have exactly as much reason to lie to you as western sources do, and it’s kinda up to you to figure that out instead of slavishly consuming state media but it’s a different state so it must be more gooder!
