Ukraine told critics of the pace of its three-month-old counteroffensive to "shut up" on Thursday, the sharpest signal yet of Kyiv's frustration at leaks from Western officials that say its forces are advancing too slowly.
See, this is what everyone is talking about. At lest you believe it, but so many others only believe the Russian propaganda and when someone disproves it, they just say it’s western propaganda, which is apparently not true but Russian propaganda is?
There’s tons of photos, videos, satellite images, and accounts by locals. It’s been investigated by the UN Commissioner of Human Rights and numerous news agencies who published their proof. Most of the footage was of the aftermath but it’s still proof, especially when combined with drone and satellite footage from before the reporters got there. Or you think the bodies were faked (been disapproved) and reporters from CNN, BBC, AFP, and more didn’t see what they saw when they entered the area? They saw a bunch of fake Halloween corpses and couldn’t tell the difference between that and real dead civilians, who had been raped, burned, and murdered? Or actors? Some of The Russian lies are unbelievable so it’s incredible to me that people keep buying into them.
Yeah I’ve seen a lot of the evidence, journalistic investigations, which were pretty compelling I just noted there’s no direct video evidence. But I do also believe UAF committed severe damage retaking the territory. There is a lot of evidence of civilian murders in UAF retreats in Mariupol as well. AFRF executing prisoners like in the NYT video, or the indiscriminate front line fire against civilians, the Kyiv corridor and southern campaign were a guerilla mindfuck. Civilian casualties are a lot lower now, but the urban conflict at its height was just incredibly brutal and indiscriminate.
It’s possible to believe both at the same time and I applaud you for being able to hold both thoughts in your head. I’m not even being sarcastic, I’ve never seen a hexbear user criticize Russia or say they’ve ever possibly done something wrong in the war or it’s lead up. So just by admitting the possibility that they could’ve done it, even if the UAF have done terrible things too, you’ve made me feel a little better. It’s nice to see some nuance finally lol. And ya, war is hell.

Here’s some videos from CNN and BBC and the New York Times.
