Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body.
If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include not just the twitter.com URL but also Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source (archive.today, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org). Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed.
Mass-tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken Markov chain bot will result in a comm ban.
Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.
Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned.
Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society.
Putin went to war not to gain territory but to crush Ukrainian independence and bring it back into the Russian sphere of influence. But Ukraine, like Finland after Stalin’s attempted invasion of 1939-40, remains an independent and viable state. The loss of 20 per cent of its territory is painful but not fatal.
to crush Ukrainian independence
the opposite of the truth, USA did the 2014 coup to replace the guy who wanted to stay independent. the problem was NATO vassalage not independence (and you can even see this laid out plainly in Russian diplomacy in late 2021 but it doesn't matter because you don't own a newspaper)
Putin went to war not to gain territory but to crush Ukrainian independence
They've been saying he wants to conquer all of ukraine, nay all of Europe, this entire time
attempted invasion
I wonder why western writers never mention how the war turned out and just focus on glorifying extremely dubious epic Finnish war hero stats. Sure is a mystery.
Did they also comment on Stalin’s attempted invasion of Germany?
Only 20% territory loss
Not great,not terrible
devastated the Russian economy and isolated it diplomatically ... Putin has turned his country into a vassal of the Chinese empire.
They're isolated and subordinates of the Chinese Empire? Interesting.
russia has isolated itself diplomatically from the majority of the world (countries marked in green)
That whole framing is doubly funny because even if that was the case, Russia's other option was to become subordinates of the US empire.
all this shit could've been avoided if not for the imperialist demons in NATO
this article is still incredibly naive and imperialist brained in the last third
Yeah, the cope at the end is pretty funny. I especially loved them still trying to peddle isolated Russia narrative.
The isolationist BRICS coalition (don't look up population, please)
Nonwhites don’t count as people sweaty (Russians aren’t white anymore)
It was joever before it started
Actually, Ukraine won and is taking its ball and going home 
looking forward to NED setting up a government in exile in the metaverse
Too Slow! And it's not in the metaverse but in Berlin.
how is that real 🤣
Honestly surprised they didn't make a scarecrow out of Navalny's corpse and say that was the president-in-exile
Step away from the goddamned lathe, Yog
🤣
Surely the GHost of Kiev has been helping them win!
10,000,0000,000,000 Ruzzians killed!
Damn that's pretty shameful on Europe's part considering the Russians are all untrained conscripts getting obliterated 10:1 and stealing washing machines instead of fighting.
Bro what happened, I thought resurgent Ukranian forces were descending upon the Russians every 48 hours????
Critical support to America on its protracted war against Europe
The Telegraph supported Boris' plays back in the early stages of the war that dragged it out this long instead of ending it way back. Having them admit defeat like this is a significant milestone.
The incessant childish whining throughout this piece makes it almost impossible to get through
