A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

I am pretty skeptical of that number. As of a month ago, even the Russians were 'only' claiming to have inflicted 383 thousand casualties (https://tass.com/defense/1723781), which we can take as an upper bound on the reasonable estimates.
Supposedly this guy just posts pro-Russian stuff and now I see why the accusations exist. Keeps trying to make it look like Ukraine are barely holding on for some reason.
The week between Christmas and New Year's it became clear to actual analysis that Russian logistics in Crimea were being blown to smithereens, so the Russians turned to terror bombing - you might recall a major aerial attack that happened a couple of days before new year that was mostly repelled by several layers of Ukrainian air defenses.
I reckon they need to flood the internet with "you lose" doomer memes like this because Ukraine hasn't fallen for it and neither have their Western allies for the most part. Russia lost at conquest and have wholly embraced terrorism.
Eurasian Times is a garbage site.
You should be, look at who is claiming this
Lutsenko was the guy feeding information to Giuliani. He’s one of the reasons Trump was impeached (the first time), and his corruption is well documented.
You're relatively new here, so you may want to read the sidebar:
"Rule 7: We didn’t USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES.

As of this post, you made 24 posts in the past 23 hours. Entirely too much, other users are complaining.
We've talked about posting multiple sources on the same story, I'm going to go through these and remove similar duplicates.
For now, I'm giving you a 3 day timeout. This group doesn't belong to you. Go outside or something.

I don't think reports are syncing from kbin, but are you able to do something about this guy? 12 of the posts I can see on the front page are from him and aside from the clear single-topic spamming, it's also misinformation to boot.
Oh shit! I better go donate to the armed forces of Ukraine again.
Fuck your propaganda.
They're including women and children.
