Just a reminder to everyone: Practice good media literacy. Propaganda works both ways, and during wartime getting actually verifiable information is a pain in the ass. It’s better to admit you don’t have enough information than to get sucked in to one narrative or another.

Yeah the Russians are the invaders. Again, without making any judgement on what’s happening, they’re not going to talk about massacres or brag about how many people they killed. They need to maintain their PR cover that they’re engaged in a limited “Special operation”.

The Russians are accusing Ukraine of using crisis actors and faking piles of dead, smoldering bodies. That seems… implausible at best. It’s one thing to disagree over the nuance of culture representation or whatever, it’s quite another to agree that there are piles of massacred civilians, but claim that the Ukrainians did it to themselves, in the midst of the most scrutinized conflict in the world.

Most scrutinized conflict in the world… where Snake Island, th Ghost of Kiev, etc were all reported as true in the West?

That conflict?

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 in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . 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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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. --
