          Yaaa, let’s blame the sentiments of observers for killing Ukrainians, not the genocidal kgb agent and the country where 88% of the voters reelected him…

              I can’t believe that there’s still people, who after seeing everything Putin has done, especially to interfere with other countries elections, think that their election was in any way valid

                It’s been invalid in over a century, and it didn’t exactly recover when Tsar Putin took the throne.

                I’m guessing that they just wanted to shit on Russian citizens. I doubt they actually believe the election was legitimate.

                  If the election was illegitimate (you mean he really didn’t get 88% of the vote ?!?), then it sounds like its Putin shitting on Russian citizens. Not sure how my comment is derogatory either.

                    Even if he got that 88%, it was only after murdering is chief rival. There is also a ton of evidence of forged votes, as well as video of armed soldiers overtly looking over the shoulders of people casting their votes.

                    When a country is as autocratic as Russia, leaders flaunt their suppression instead of trying to hide it. Secrets hint at weakness. Brazen lies and oppression are much harder to challenge. There was almost no attempt to make the election look legitimate. The 88% is intended to remind the people that they are powerless, not to show that Putin is loved.

            and the country where 88% of the voters reelected him…

            I know many people who didn’t, a few I suspect and literally zero who would admit voting for him.

          If you go on to any of the pro-Ukrainian telegram channels, Ukrainians are absolutely rejoicing over this. One posted a video of the fire taken by a car driving by on the highway and captioned it “З днем свинячого шашлику” lol.

          Considering statistically each one of them is going to take 10-12 Russians with them, not a sacrifice made in vain.

      One of the most striking moments in a pretty forgettable series. D Day is also very good although more or less a copy of Saving Private Ryan
