"they had trials and punished their own soldiers for committing crimes in ATO"

Zelensky let them all out when the war started[0], including the infamous Tornado battalion[1][2].

"have a long and proven track record of lying without any shame or remorse"

Just like the Ukraine or the US.

"which Russian side ... encouraged"

Another fine example of 'atrocity propaganda'[3] to mobilize public support in Western countries for the Ukrainian war.

"vs silence on Russia using all sorts of forbidden weaponry"

So why is the silence? That happens when things get investigated and no proof is found. I remember Ukrainian general claiming in 2014 that Russia used a tactical nuke in Donbass.

Zelensky let them out after many years in prison when faced with full scale war, I do like how you are silent on Russia recruiting violent offenders in prisons to go to Ukraine though. And no, it was not just Wagner doing so, and even Wagner was doing it with explicit approval from Russian government.

The audacity to compare Ukraine, which has incredible level of transparency during this invasion in every aspect, welcoming auditors and investigators from all over the world to Russia is very telling of your biases.

I am Russian, I am well aware of nuances, but to even begin to compare the two is insanity in 2023.


I'd suggest you too read the links in my original comment here.


Why do you care about AZOV you're more than happy for the Russians to give a billion dollars to a guy with literal SS lightning bolts tattooed on him.

Seems like you're more then happy about Russian nazis but looking to very much focus on the other side.

There doesn't need to be propaganda when you are up against the monsters that rolled through Grozny and Aleppo.

The Russians are every bit the monsters that most people think they are.

> Just like the Ukraine or the US.

But the Russians lie a lot more. They have pretty much not stopped lying since this "we are not going to invade" war started and even just before it.


You are still my favorite clown, don't worry. No need to stalk my comments.

Typical Vatnik when they have no way to counter an argument, remember the Internet Research Agency says attack the person not the content.
