“Fact checking” continues to be the most soulless fucking twitter occupation you can have, “Russian disinformation(Who? Random accounts it seems, the guy says RT showed the image but not that they claimed the victim to be Russian) says this is a Russian woman used as a human shield, but actually its just the normal Ukranian pasttime of lynching ‘Roma purse snatchers’ in public with potentially toxic dyes, this practice actually predates Nazi lynchings of Roma so its 5 Pinocchios to say this is a sign of neo-nazis”:
Absolute fucking ghouls doing this shit, no heart or soul. And of course you have the usual blue-yellow choir singing “Actually you should be thankful to be tortured in public because usually we would blow your fucking brains out in the street, scum, thats how the law works during war(No source or citation for this)”.
Edit: https://www.rt.com/russia/552452-roma-tied-to-lamp-posts/ RT literally says its Roma being targeted in Lviv, 1 day after the first date this clown says he found the image uploaded, and the same day the Roma nonprofit released their article on it. He’s literally debunking entirely random people, actual Russian “state propaganda” or whatever says exactly the same thing.
Well he literally confirms Ukraine has been having a vigilante group perform extrajudicial and degrading punishments with notable racial bias while state officials are looking elsewhere FOR 4 YEARS.
I’m actually starting to believe that Ukraine isn’t run by neo-Nazis cuz it’s clearly not running at all. Russia is trying hard to get Ukraine on its knees but it continues to lay down.
Its really quite absurd that someone can write a thread about how theres been a racist vigilante group lynching people in public for 4 years, with a facebook page, and then the point of the whole thread is that some guy with a Russian name mistakenly thought one of their victims was a Russian woman being used as a human shield and this is Russian disinformation.
Also, there are literally hundreds of similar videos of people being tortured with different captions like “pro-Russian”, and “marauders” being shared on Ukrainian Telegram groups every day. And this stupid goose decides to go “uh, well akctualy” with one picture, to indirectly say that this entire occurrence it’s Russian propaganda.
It just struck me that if you just remove the pointless references to nonexistant russian disinformation, this thread could have been compiled by any one of us, its literally just documenting and proving for sure that yes, this for sure happened, it for sure happened in Ukraine and about as far from the frontlines as you can get, it for sure happened recently and it is absolutely part of a larger trend of racially motivated lynchings and abuses even during peacetime, voiding the excuse of this being provoked by the war.
