I tend to speak to people in countries I want to know about, as news is always slanted in favour/favor of narratives and corporations/government, the latter are one and the same to me.
More and more I am hearing - first hand, that since the government there agreed to arm anyone and everyone, it is anarchy, but with guns.
Now you may not like the truth, many do not, they just want to be spoon fed a media narrative of good V bad.
Patrick Lancaster is an Englishman I have known for years over on steemit and he has been covering the government attacks on the people of Donbas for 8 years. (Ukraine V Ukraine.)
Here is his steemit account for historical sake. https://steemit.com/armenia/@patricklancaster/i-am-back-on-steemit-armenia-azerbaijan-ukraine-war-usa-politics-and-more
It turns out the government everyone that watches the news is routing for (Ukraine) is dropping dumb bombs on their own people. (cluster bombs)
Let me clarify before you even have that thought that I am a paid Russian troll, I am an Englishman in Poland, a farmer and motorcycle restorer too, plus father of a half English and half Polish daughter.
I just like the truth and both sides of any story, without facts we know nothing.
If you want truth about any country you need to ask people there.
If I want to know what is happening in New Zealand I ask #frot, Australia I ask #j85063 or #minismallholding, I have a contact in nearly every country on this planet, people tell the truth where the media lies.
I have to go and rebuild my barn this morning, so before I go and do that I wanted to do this quick post, it clears my head and stops me thinking about it all day, go and check out Patrick Lancaster, he has lived in Donbas for 8 years since this war started, to most it started 6 weeks ago, reality bites, it is years old, not a month and a bit.
The mainly women that have escaped or are permitted to leave are stating Ukrainians are killing each other and looting each other.
Men under 60 and over 18 are not allowed to leave full stop.
I have met some (men), they bribed their way out.
I have also met people that walked for days over fields to get here, and other ways.
Most seem like they want it ending (internal war) and to go home, but with a government that bombs it's own people - they will most likely stay here.
There you go, reality bites, it is not black or white.
Have a superb day, off to move a few tonnes of bricks and try to rebuild a barn.
