    Wut? Was he talking about the previous Ukrainian government, sponsored by Russia™? I can’t make sense of what he is saying, actually.

      I had to reread it a few times myself, but I’m pretty sure that’s what he’s talkin about

      Because everyone knows Russia is well known for their totally legit free and fair elections/s

        i got a veteran friend who would not take kindly to people saying her country should be permanently tied to a country whose name she refuses to spell correctly. the .ml tankists have, apparently, no concept of a false flag operation

          When Russia interferes, it’s fair and democratic elections, when the west spens a few million on pro-democracy and anti-corruption initiatives it’s Western election interference and bad.

          Or they argue in bad faith.

          I hope so because I don’t want to believe people can be so stupid they can probably not breathe and walk simultaneously.

        They believe euromaden was a western sponsored coup, the beginning of the end of Ukraine’s independence and the forced deportation of the nation from their Slavic brethren
