One must remember that Ukrainians and Russians are cut from the same cloth. Meaning outlandish propaganda and bluster to hide weaknesses and failings are SOP. Especially during a war, trust practically nothing either side announces. Lying and corruption are endemic in these twin societies, tied together by a thousand years of history, language, and race.
Right, Putin invaded independent neighboring Ukraine for territorial gain, but somehow according you they are 'cut from the same cloth'. Okay
Every nation in a war. This is not unique to Slavs.
Orwells themes came out, in part, from his service in the BBC in WW2.
Is western media though just as bad?
Secondly, so why do you think non-Slavic westerners play the following games:
Tbe usual suspects here, when Hindustan Times or others cite WaPo, NYT, or even TASS still go so far to brush it off as Putin propaganda, seem to make no attempt to try to go after the substance of the article as I did with thw DM article on the Ghost, and that knee-jerk reaction against Russian or Indian media shouldn’t be used because it’s illogical.
As well, DM has clearly been caught in that propaganda, I’ve seen no repentance from DM over it, others here keep using them, and it’s past old.
Plus, they here attack the messenger (like HT) when they don’t even attempt to prove the article from them is propaganda and yet try to worm out of it when I attack what what Daily Mail has posted, not it itself, ahd then go from there.
