A lot of people on our side of the political spectrum seem to be falling for putinist propaganda, The biolabs & neo nazi narratives for example.
So I’ve decided to post this article by Lucian Valsan, a Romanian youtuber who suffered Socialism under the Soviet union, & really knows his stuff when it comes to Putin, Russia, & eastern europe in general. He’s under no illusions with Vladimir Putin.
His channel, Freedom Alternative, is full of useful information on that part of the world – I highly recommend it.
