bimboeruption: "Before the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Davydov was a commercial pilot[5] for SkyUp.[6]"

I see.
Oddly, when I google Denys Davydov, that Wiki page does not come up.
I couldn't find much of anything on him.

Now I see that some of what I suspected about Davydov is correct:

"He cited a lack of any prior military experience for not joining the Armed Forces of Ukraine at the beginning of the war,[9] but noted that if the Ukrainian Air Force was in need of pilots in the future he would join after military training.[1]
He would begin to support Ukraine instead as a citizen journalist, providing analysis of the war on his Telegram and YouTube channels.[3]"

Also, there's this about his personal life:

"Davydov was born in Crimea[4] in the city of Sevastopol,[14] where he was baptised at the ill|St. Nicholas Church, Sevastopol|lt=St. Nicholas Church|uk|Микільська церква (Севастополь).[14]
He also lived for a time in Cherkasy.[15]
He is married and has one daughter...[4]

...Donations collected by Davydov would also be split 50/50 between charities supporting Ukraine and money for his family.[1]"

So Davydov is a married family man, a Christian, meaning alleged descriptions of him living the "high life", prowling bars like a wealthy single guy, are simply a mocker's overactive and malicious imagination.
