Until you’ve been to war, and have seen how these things play out, your TikTok videos are unfortunately guiding you with emotion and abandon. Or, maybe you have fought in an urban setting, and have incoming forces encircling you … if so, you must be a lot more enlightened to how this works.
War is dirty, each sides play games. And there is a 3rd side to all this — do you not realize that the gangs in Kiev, that are now armed because of your hero Zelensky are now terrorizing the city folk?
So the question is, HOW do I know? Is it because I cite TikTok videos… or maybe I could pull up articles after articles from our dear MSM?
No mate, when you see war up front, close and personal, you will realize that the fog is mighty thick.
17 years USMC. I know exactly what I'm talking about.
The media war is being shown on ticktock at the moment...and you can't argue with eye witness unless your intent to remain ignorant. I could cite any article and you would say "fake news" I could quote any military, intelligence or elected official and you would dismiss it with "deep state"....I share ticktock because your eyes are not lying when you see shelling of civilans out the window of someones house.
Remain ignorant or compromised, makes no difference to me.
Ill refer to the thread topic then leave it at that....the context was a claim that russia is banning social media because it keeps "the liberal influence" out of russia...
I simply said this was false. They shut it down because it is showing the world that they are losing this war, or at the very least they aren't winning. Ticktock in fact was the first platform to share the live radio calls of the death of General Vitaly Gerasimov (which Moscow has since confirmed)
The Ukrainians are also very technologically adept and are sharing their experiences and the war crimes committed by Russia for the world to see. This is the reason its shut down, nothing more.
There is a cancer in this and other conservative communities that has been infiltrated by a direct, consistent and organized propaganda effort. My mission is to share my own experiences with this regime and point people to resources outside of the MSM where they can see for themselves.
Unfortunately mate, you are choosing ignorance.

Fren, to be fair you can’t cite any military intelligence - please do not wave that around.
And as I mentioned before there has been countless vids that were brought up that ended up being false.
It surprises me… you are far too ‘single toned’ about this entire conflict, it’s unbecoming for a 17 year veteran.
