ukrainians have put their own spin on molotov cocktails.

they now call them “Bandera Smoothie”.

google the infamous ukranian nationalist and boogeyman Stepan Bandera. Stepan Bandera - Wikipedia

Was there a bank run?

lots of videos of people queuing up at atms. it’s sunday, so banks aren’t open.

then there’s things like this.

The issue is that if he includes the link the few times he shares content from reputable sources it will make it even more glaringly obvious that he intentionally omits the source when he takes stuff out of context or shares unreputable crap. That’s why he’s coming up with excuses as to why he is the only one incapable of linking to any source, even legitimate ones.

ETA: sorry for the mini derail. Hopefully it leads to better posting and sourcing.

What does the last sentence mean? Vse na zvonkah s nochi?

Also, I’m guessing none of the Russians on this board are actually in Russia, right?

i think he’s saying sberbank account managers are getting personal phone calls from account holders, desperate for any help withdrawing

The timestamps are literally in the image you included here. (10:27 and 13:49)

Where did keeed go? He was furiously copy-pasting Russian propaganda a few weeks ago, and I haven’t seen him lately.

Will do.

The issue is he still hasn’t learnt that I only ever quote BBC or The Guardian - hopefully remembering this will lead to less of his derails.

The pinned timestamps with, I guess, the links you refer to? Here, maybe you do pictures better (clipped from your image above)

If the Greenwald and Trump/Jan 6th threads are any indication he will just stop posting ITT and never acknowledge that he has been completely wrong.

one of state tv propagandist and a Duma delegate called into TV Dozhd (opposition channel) for an interview. some major backpedaling, asking to stop military attacks by ukranians, saying negotiations are inevitable, have to happen now, russia needs assurances that no nato close enough to strategic positions.

although he’s still lying about genocide of russians in donbass, nato threat, ukrainian MPs, and a bunch of other things. fuck off asshole!

i tried holding him off itt, he then banned someone without a reason and resigned/left in a huff.

then when russian soldiers started dying, danby showed up. i’m assuming that is keeed

ETA: shout-out to the 66% who voted him mod. lmao.

I’m going to give up because this must be incredibly tedious for others to read and I can’t PM you apparently. All I can say is try clicking those time stamps. No need to reply to tell me it doesn’t work on your computer.

What? I do not get a danby-is-keed vibe at all, they seem like they’re coming from completely different places

There will be literally infinite time to litigate who was right/wrong after the war was over. For now, it would make this thread much more readable if we held of on the personal arguments (especially if the poster isn’t even active). Alternatively, maybe take those arguments to a different thread.

Advocates for total war, distroying everything in Ukraine

Isn’t it beyond fair use to post the entire contents of a piece of media, with or without reference?

Just post a 2-sentence clip of what you’re referencing, post some link that might be imperfect but we’ll be able to figure it out, and carry on. Getting upset about posting entire article without linking isn’t some unreasonable UP nittery. It’s pretty standard Internet forum rules AFAIK.

Sweet, ty
