This is the kind of content the .ml admins cultivate through their bans and censorship. They’ll frequently remove articles from credible good sources that directly go against their narratives, while allowing misinformation and conspiracy websites to include RT, Sputnik and (as shown) random substack blogs as long as they tow the narratives that align with them.

E.g. Ukraine is a Nazi regime and Russia is just “liberating” the Ukrainian people

    we know it’s not true. why are you so triggered i asked for shareable links that show examples of PATCHES and sigils being not nazi and other prop being false? I was given links and they were great!

    Share the actual truths and that will outweigh the agitprop.

      It’s seriously insane how hard people are working to misinterpret you, there’s no way people other than op are approaching this in good faith. You made it clear you’re not a tankie, these people just can’t stand the idea that their beliefs require proof or that there are people who aren’t swayed by rhetoric alone (edit I def thought this was a tankie comment at first, that’s how it sounded at first but you’ve made it abundantly clear that’s not what it is)

      “You’re trying to prove a negative, they should just realize that” “they should just” is a pointless take to have on anything. people will never “just”, they need convincing, and different people are convinced by different things. It’s a tough subject to research, you’ve got one side claiming they’re all nazis that deserve to be conquered and another that thinks they’re all saints and can do no wrong, and I don’t blame people at all for wanting evidence that the very real nazi groups in Ukraine aren’t representative of everyone there, or even the whole military
