Where did you get that information that Iryna Zarutska was a BLM supporter?

I googled it and got the information that there are widespread claims on social media that Iryna Zarutska supported Black Lives Matter, primarily based on a viral photo purportedly showing BLM posters (including “Black Lives Matter” and “I Can’t Breathe”) in her bedroom.

However, these claims appear to be unsubstantiated and possibly false. The photo in question does not match verified images of her bedroom from her Instagram account (@lucaveros225), which show a different layout (e.g., center-aligned door, blue LED strip lighting along the walls, a large walk-in closet, a TV, and distinct wall art with no BLM-related posters visible).

The circulated image lacks sourcing from her social media, family, or official records, and mainstream reporting on her life (including her obituary, which describes her as an artist, veterinary assistant aspirant, and animal lover who fled Ukraine in 2022) makes no mention of BLM support or any political activism.

Searches of her limited Instagram posts (personal and lifestyle-focused, with no political content) also reveal no references to BLM, protests, or related causes.

The narrative remains unverified speculation without direct evidence from Zarutska herself.

I said it was a comment and I don’t know beyond that.
