Ukrainian-created documentary translated into English. Also look up the Odessa Trade Union Massacre
Modern Ukraine is an undead slave state. Undead as in even if all Ukrainian soldiers became unkillable supermen, the population demographics of the nation and the privatization from US imperialist entities like Blackrock will doom any potential recovery of Ukraine that gives autonomy to Ukrainian people. The people who have fled will not come back (the smart ones are in Russia as they will avoid the blowback that goes westward) and the people who have stayed are not enough to build back due to the draft and the destroyed infrastructure.
Slave as in, even with all this, the Kiev government will not entertain any form of negotiations. Instead, "Bussification" has emerged as Ukrainian men, no matter if they are unfit, are kidnapped by the state and forced into the front lines. This is not a democratic choice considering zelensky's refusal to hold elections (which even Putin is capable of doing). It was the choice of the imperial core to force Ukraine to sacrifice its own existence for nothing in return. Americans are willing to fight to the last Ukrainian after all.
In comparison, Russians volunteer and you can live your life in Russia without it being centered on the war. Besides the sanctions turning off western social media, life stays the same. Putin is still overwhelmingly popular and there is no real opposition party. You can be a shitlib, a trans anarchist or a orthodox conservative and the domestic social dynamics have not changed due to the war. But in Ukraine, anyone who is not trusted is labeled a separatist with droves of ready brown shirts willing to force you to submit. Even speaking Russian is anti-Ukrainian even though most of the population can speak both languages.
Russia has a right to defend itself and its people. Ukraine has never had a choice.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Do you have anything not in video form? I prefer more verifiable sources. Some dude with a camera and a copy of video editing software makes a claim, and I either gotta take it at face value as truth or start trying to figure out how to verify it, every time he claims something. I've seen way too many dudes lie that way to just trust it.
The documentary is from a Ukrainian activist in hiding, but all of the events shown really did happen unless you are claiming that its either doctored or shown out of context.
Everyone is lying to you, don't worry about it. Enjoy your life and stop struggling. Slava ukraini
