#Ukraine Published Feb. 16/22, but the relevant parts of the story are quite accurate. Folks in the west just sit in Front of their TVs and think that those entities run in their communities are telling the truth. Well, no they aren't—They're manufacturing consent, people! And you're buying it!! Critical thinking doesn't exist among the masses. <sigh>

@marathon0 This is great example of pseudo-journalism and kremlin propaganda... For instance, denying of shootings on protesters during maidan by Berkut, which was even filmed, is absurd considering the amount of evidence we have. And claiming basically that they killed themselves is even more crazy than that.
@marathon0 no, it was Berkut police force. There was already forensic investigation on this issue.

@bitrairo Yeah like I believe the NYT. When it comes to politics/geopolitics, they're worse than RT!
@marathon0 no, there is not. USA supported democratic development in Ukraine since it was founded (like in many other countries), but these protests began and lived because of the public unrest after Yanukovych did not signed association agreement with EU. Like... what would they even sponsor? To buy old tires they burned there? Or to buy ingredients for soup for protesters?
@bitrairo
No one is denying the shooting at Madan, the folks that did it were Right Sector fascists, who don't care if they were fellow Ukrainians. The end is the means as far as they're concerned.
