>>14984744It's a strange case depending on what board you're in but one thing is certain and that's when you can tell it's over run by shills. /pol/ is full of the Pro Russian side which isn't surprising considering it's a board that would have followed the geo politics going on over there LONG before this broke out. Their general like /chug/ feel widely organic and is more down to earth shit posting you would expect from this site. Then you've got offsplit generals on there like /uhg/ which is about the same thing but filled with obvious left can't meme tier shills who hate /chug/ so much they have to go over to that general just to remind them how much they hate them even though they say they can't stand them.
Shills and organic posting aside considering /pol/ has been watching the situation over in that region since at least 2014 they have a much better grip of what's going on there. Putin saying they're "denazifying" Ukraine is literally a middle finger to events that transpired back in 2014 because when those riots were happening certain entities like Black Bloc and Antifa as you know them were over there attacking Russian citizens in Ukraine and when all the dust settled they said they were removing "Nazis". There wasa famous case where they broke into a building and strangled an old woman with a telephone wire.
Russia and Ukraine has never been on good terms with eachother but it's been boiling point since then and Zelensky getting elected in the most suspect ways possible filling his government with friends from the entertainment media he worked with (I'm not shitting you look up their past experience) and then going on for years barking at Russia saying "We're going to be Nato, we'll get nukes, we'll fuck you up!"
It literally turned into pic related. Now we're at where we are.
