That's one way to spin humanitarian action.

Humanitarian actions are never against someone will. Using force to achieve your "humanitarian action" is called kidnapping.

What would you call over a million people fleeing their homes, while the government of the land they live on is shelling those very homes and passing legislation to make their very existence impossible? What would you call parents fleeing with their children in a desperate attempt to keep them safe? Would it be acceptable to leave orphans in an orphanage with artillery shells dropping all around and fire fights happening just down the street? Would you be alright with parents deciding to stay in their war torn village just so that they don't cross a border in to what you've determined as enemy territory? What would you call a violent terror campaign over a decade long being waged against millions of people just because of the langauge they speak and the area they come from?

I’d call you a shill. This place needs moderators.

Welcome to Lemmy, where your worldview is challenged and the US government doesn't get to censor every perspective they don't want you to know about.

There seem to be a lot of people who don't know or who do know and don't care how much control western national security personnel had/have over the narrative on the major, centralised social media platforms.

Yep. Give it time, a lot of these communities are still basically brand-new, and moderation tools are in their infancy. Long term, I don't think Russian trolls will find Lemmy all that welcoming for their garbage.

The fact that Russia is losing badly and becoming more and more destabilized must worry you.

[-] redtea@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Why would it worry me? I don't have a horse in this race.
