You are gonna get sooooo down voted for this. The Ukraine contingent on here cares WAY more about squashing realistic critique than hundreds of thousands of dead Ukrainians.

It's really shocking to see how callous people are regarding the human suffering caused by the war. It was particularly disgusting to see people defending the AFU grabbing people off the street and gang pressing them into services here a few weeks ago.

Ukraine was supposed to have democratic elections. The current regime's mandate ended in June. Since then, they are in power illegally and by sheer Presidential decree, for democracy, you see.
