Zelensky addresses Ukraine:

His strategy appears to be; lose the war, but get a whole bunch of Ukrainians killed in the process. Wouldn't surprise me if we was actually already in exile. Hopefully people stay home, Russia bulldozes through over the next day or two and this thing can be ended as quickly as possible. It's either that, a longer version of that with more causalities, or NATO get involved :shock:

Given the lies, deceit and duplicity of the last two years on SARS-Cov-2 and experimental injections, the Tory/Labour/MSM complex cannot be trusted to provide unbiased and factual reporting on any situation, including Ukraine.

"Here’s Volodymyr Zelenskyy making an appeal to the Russian people. It’s worth watching."
https://twitter.com/MollyJongFast/statu ... 2566836239

Yes, it is. Zelensky, 9 minutes, to Russian people, I read as containing attempts to thread the needle through total resistance fantasy toward face-saving surrender.

His twitter full of complaints about West-NATO doing nothing that I read the same way - see, they left us alone, so we have no choice.

As Russia continues to attack Kyiv, the draft resolution is co-sponsored by an unprecedented number of UN Member States. This proves: the world is with us, the truth is with us, the victory will be ours

This is turning into a bloodsport. Idealisation of martyrdom and heroic warrior myths all over social media. The Ghost of Kiev. The Ukrainian Reaper. The snake Island 13. Propaganda is potent with bloodlust right now.

I must admit, sticking to the facts doesn't really paint a clear picture of a war which in reality is at least half fiction.
