He's targeting civilians. Repeating Putin's propaganda will make you look unhinged or evil.
I don't even think it'll keep the QAnon Anti-vaxx cults going because masks, vaccines, lockdowns & imaginary paedophile networks in pizza restaurants can generate more talking points than a country being bombed out of existence.
Is Putin targeting civilians, or are other bad actors targeting civilians? For the sake of keeping an open mind, let's be generous, what if it was both?
Is it possible for you to even consider that the fake news bogeyman narrative on this is fabricated to some degree as is the case with every other narrative? We have already seen photos and videos being repurposed from other events and presented as depicting events in this current Russia–Ukraine conflict.
Ukraine is one of the most corrupt countries on Earth. I would suggest considering that there is no good "side" in this conflict. There are only good people getting caught in between. I stand against the corrupt and depraved assholes, including neo-Nazis (yes, there are neo-Nazi groups in Ukraine; this is not a revelation by Putin).
Furthermore, when China invades Taiwan, which side will you take? If the media tell you to stay neutral or side with China, will you, or will you then begin to question the narrative?
