I have a male Ukrainian friend. His girlfriend lived in a student dormitory in another part of the city when the “busification” started. One day a neighbour of hers tried to rape her, and when she started to resist, he punched her in the abdomen area so hard she got a serious vaginal bleeding. My friend obviously wanted to rush to the dormitory to beat the fuck out of the guy and help his girlfriend but he simply couldn’t because he would immediately get enrolled and sent to the warzone. And this is almost a good story compared to others I’ve heard…

To those who get upset with this post: bruh just talk to actual Ukrainians. You’ll discover many interesting things.
The funny part of propaganda is that it’s very often true - maybe exagerated but still true. People on the other side just ignore their own issues, so the truth has a shocking effect. But in actuality, if you dig deeper, you almost always end up realising both sides in every conflict do some horrible things and at the same time have good reasons for that. Because war is not about who’s right and who’s wrong, it’s about who’s gonna survive and who’s gonna become a slave or die.
And I’m even not pro-Russian.
