My description of events matches reality perfectly. Even mainstream western media admits this openly now. Gonna have to update your talking points there.

But over half of Ukrainians wanted to see the end of the conflict as soon as possible, according to Gallup polling last year. That percentage might be higher now. Moreover, I often doubt we can trust current polls from Ukraine. Today, fear rules over a country where elections are indefinitely postponed, human rights are systematically eroded, and fear dictates daily life.

Zelensky’s authoritarian instincts were already becoming clear even before Putin’s invasion. As early as 2019, I listened as he demanded propaganda from his subordinates to flood the media with praise when his policies failed. Today, he has achieved that: a vast army of voices branding him the face of democracy and the very embodiment of Ukraine itself.

Cute little attempts at insults you've got there. I'd be really insulted by them too if I had a shred of respect for your lying ass.

Spectator.co.uk so mainstream its the first time I even hear about them.

What you linked is an opinion piece by an anonymous "author" with no sources or anything to back up any claim.

You'll have to do better than that. Let's not forget which one of us is a proven liar in this discussion. We all have the history to prove it

Oh no, an ignoramus hasn't heard of something therefore it's not mainstream. Impeccable logic! Anybody reading the discussion can make up their own minds on this. I've said all I need to say, and your ravings speak for themselves.

Bye.
