        Even Prigozhin said that the supposed genocide in Donbas is 100% a Russian propaganda fabrication. Stop parroting that bullshit.

              You didn’t need to cite hitler as the cake lover, could have picked anyone else

              You didn’t have to pick the fascist mercenary army leader to agree with you on the other one, either. Yet you did for some reason

              Is this supposed to prove anything but you have no scruples?

                I mean hexbears are otherwise so willing to take Russian sources at face value, e.g. when it comes to claims about Russian speakers getting supposedly oppressed and genocided by the Ukrainian state… then why not trust Pregozhin? What makes him less trustworthy than Solovyov?

                  I can’t speak for everyone, but I definitely don’t find Russian media particularly trustworthy, we like to do a little thing called critical thinking instead of just blindly accepting things

                  Russian media is untrustworthy and I’ve yet to meet a hexbear user that says otherwise. We just also recognize American media to be untruswot. Good thing we’re able to critique our sources and think critically

            Oh there’s plenty of other reasons to impeach Trump. Why would he even be impeached over that, though. I don’t really follow US news, it’s silly over there.

              His first impeachment was over him extracting personal political benefit from sending weapons to Ukraine that they were using to carry out their ethnic cleansing

              If the ethnic cleansing were 100% fabricated by Russian propaganda then the Hillary Cliintons of the USA are Putin bots.

                You are aware that Russia already invaded in 2014? That this war has been going on for a while? Why wouldn’t the US send Ukraine aid to defend itself?

                Regarding the US reaction back then in general, though: Why didn’t the US enforce the Budapest memorandum?

                  No they didn’t. They were already there. The biggest feature of Crimea is the naval base that Russia had been leasing since Ukraine had a legitimately elected government. When the US supported Nazi led coup regime took power they tried to cancel the lease. The Russians simply stayed put. They didn’t invade. They were already there.

                  Are there any more fundamental understandings of recent history you would like me to catch you up on?

                    You realise that Crimea is larger than Sevastopol and Donetsk and Luhansk are not on Crimea?

                    Also, that “US supported Nazi coup” is 100% Russian propaganda not backed by anything but fantasy?

              Ever wonder why they impeached him over some bullshit most people didn’t give a fuck about in a country most people didn’t know existed at the time instead of the mountains of evidence of his predatory behavior?

          Nobody said there was a genocide as far as I know, but there were many ethnic cleansing attempts.

          On the contrary calling Russia activities “genocide” was very common. Programmed morons.
