Please help us continue fighting Russian propaganda.

Truth can be hard to tell from fiction these days. Every viewpoint has its audience of backers and supporters, no matter how absurd.

If conscious disinformation is reinforced by state propaganda apparatus and budget, its outcomes may become deadly.

There is no solution to this, other than independent, honest, and accurate reporting.

  1. Someone should ask all those cunts in western media and politics:

    “If savages came to your home, raped your wife and burned your house down, would you negotiate with them? What would you want to give them?”

  2. So the final tally is in. Two little girls were murdered amongst the adult victims.
    This is an abominable terror atrocity committed by vermin who knew exactly what they were doing. Kill them all, kill their families and burn their houses down.

  3. While Ukraine is still targeting military or military-useful infrastructure, the ruskie terrorist federation still prefers to slaughter civilians.
    And the outcry from the usual hypocrites is quite shallow.
