Ukraine IV

So we can't save «Russians being taken in by the propaganda, and being afraid of dissent but it's staggering there are apologists around with access to unbiased reporting.»

Maybe it's time to save you from West propaganda?

I'd have more sympathy if you were posting links to reputable sources backing up your version of events. Note: random Telegram channels are not reputable sources.
 
A shopping centre in east Ukraine with more than 1,000 people inside has been hit by a Russian missile strike

Source: BBC

The Russians clearly aim to kill as many defenceless civilians and destroy as much infrastructure as possible. I doubt they would take this approach if the victims were able to hit back in similar fashion.

Quite sickening.

Let's have the lesson how to Western propaganda works.

We have one shocked TV/BBC reader. How to make it?

Right after the explosion local representative reports about 2 dead and 10 wounded.

Zelensky reports via BBC, CCN.

This narrative leaves taste
- Russian bombs trade center simply to kill people
- 1000 or even 10000 peoples are killed by missle
- Everyhing is burn

Ok, there is no 1000 dead but still 18 people killed and 50 injured.

Missing part of pictures that your CNN, BBC never tell:
1. Russian Defense Ministry: Yesterday in Kremenchug in the Poltava region, the Russian Aerospace Forces attacked hangars with weapons and ammunition received from the United States and European countries in the area of the Kremenchug road machinery plant. The weapons and ammunition concentrated there to be sent to the Ukrainian group in the Donbass were hit, the detonation of ammunition stored in the hangar caused a fire in a nearby non-functioning shopping center, the Russian ministry reports. (Edit: it was Russian fail, shopping center was active)
2. The administrators of the shopping center on June 23 stopped closing it during aerial bombardments

Media space is pretty cleared all around the world in US, Russia, EU and UA.

But you can notice some narrative change in France and Germany.

I guess this is the section you're referring to from the FT report?

Partisan activities in Russian-occupied territories were emerging, Budanov said, citing two car bombings in the Kherson region that killed a regional official appointed by Russian occupying forces. Drone and missile strikes of refineries, fuel depots and military installations inside Russian territory have also been reported in the past weeks. These attacks and sabotage operations “are held everywhere, and they were and will be held in Russia and many other places”, Budanov said, refusing however to say whether Ukrainian authorities were behind them.

Not sure there's anything there that hasn't already been reported.
 
The strike could have been called at night when fewer civilians are around. But it wasn't. Either Russian planners are thick or they don't care about collateral damage. I think I know which is the more likely explanation.

Exactly - "The mall/school/hospital just happened to be in the way. It wasn't our fault..."

Russia hit a land target, a shopping mall, with two anti ship cruise missiles, it’s not a targeting error it’s a typical Putin tactic to put the middle finger up to the G7 - all imho.

The dog called "unintentional collateral damage" won't hunt. Too much previous, m'lud. The MOI of the (serial) offender in question is quite clear.

Another part of the serial offender's behaviour is "plausible (from his POV) deniability"... while being happy that people know it was him, really.

a. la, "Polonium? Novachok? Nah! Not me, guv, I just pound nearby cities to rubble, mate. I'm in the rag-and-bone trade. I've not even visited to admire the Cathederals..."

Translation:

Here are some random screenshots followed by "authoritative denials" from Russia.

Who you gonna believe - Putin or your lying eyes?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The brilliant thing about USSR 2.0 propaganda is while it properly looks like insane drivel to normal people, propagandized Russians love it!

In a way, they respond very similar to the QANON cult.

And the "original" part of the message is a crude translation of a text originally written in Russian. Most likely from a set of dessiminated talking points to spread.

Factually, Russian lies dessiminated by @[email protected] , are debunked here, among many other places:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/61967480

In the past, it seems possible that at least some atrocities were caused by Russians using old and imprecise systems (like the old naval missiles here) together with Soviet maps that simply didn't have any of the newer buildings and neighborhoods. Many others appeared to be quite purposeful.

When Putin is gone and the new government opens up military records for war crimes investigators, we will learn a lot more.

You have to understand that Russians hear daily they are special, "soulful" people, incapable of causing harm. They are simply "liberating Ukraine from Nazis," one shopping mall at a time.

There is even an expectation that in case of a nuclear holocaust, they will go to heaven while people in the West will "just croak."

They believe these horrific war crimes are eleborately staged movie sets with large numbers of "crisis actors" and "fake journalists."

In cases when it's impossible to deny the obvious killings, they are told "ukranazis" killed them to make "our boys look bad."

Sometimes both explanations are used at the same time. Great majority of the target audience accepts them, even if mutually exclusive.

For example, when Russian separatists shot the Malaysian airliner with a Russian supplied missile, Russian propaganda simultaneously claimed it was shot by a Ukrainian missile, a Ukrainian fighter jet and also the bodies were "not fresh" (i.e., corpses planted on the plane). Photoshopped "satellite photos" were shown and Carlos, the "Spanish air traffic controller" who "saw everything," was interviewed.

The Kremlin MH17 shoot down Panto put on for the UNSC and world media was of such low quality it was frankly laughable. Three Russians, former FSB and GRU officers, are on trial (in absentia) in The Netherlands on 298 counts of murder. Similarly Russian denials over atrocities in Ukraine need to be treated as theatre. Remember Lavrov correcting journalists with “actually, we haven’t invaded Ukraine” while Russia was inside Ukraine.?

You should start with fake test tube on UN session, militarist monger liberal
Начни с пробирки, милитарист-либерал.

It soo funny to see how you are trying... Try harder :)

That's a great example.

To a normal person, Lavrov's statement is farcically absurd. But to the propagandized Russians, who have absorbed official "double speak," his statement is much more "nuanced." They will remember recent Putinism that, like Peter the Great, he is "returning Russian lands."

Ukraine, you see, just "borrowed" Russian lands at some point in the past. So Russia isn't "invading Ukraine" but "returning what's ours." And that will make impoverished Russians feel like little "Peterlets" for a few minutes.

Simple.

Honestly, this doesn't need a translation.

But I enjoy seeing common anti-democratic slurs Putin's trolls use on Russian forums transliterated into pseudo-english "insults."

I will wear "militarist monger liberal" as a badge of honor!

And now, just for fun, more Real Russian TV for our UK and Ireland residents! Get your scuba gear ready.

Great stuff! “Militarist monger liberal” is the new “Mr. President Artist”.
At least it's not the more ubiquitous "Liberast" - a portmanteau of "Liberal" and "Pederasty."

That one is always in heavy rotation. And requires a cute reference:
