Its ridiculous, Tree. One can't even ask questions in a polite manner without immediately being called names and slandered, even when one tries honestly. Any deviation from the main stream narrative gets you labeled as a Kremlin lover.
For the record, I'm an American citizen. Happy to prove who I am if someone wants to take the $10K bet. More than happy.
My wife is from Moscow, but spent her first 11 years or so in the Ukraine. She was born a Ukrainian during the Soviet Union. We discuss the conflict all the time, and she has relatives in Dnipropetrovsk. We are both very much against the war, but we are also very familiar with the use of propaganda to push and sway people's opinions. So asking questions is not only my right, it is recommended.
If all you do is label someone as soon as they have a different perspective, then you are the problem.
