Never heard of this film. I guess I got to feed the Streisand effect. Good work YT.
The U.S. House of Representatives has admitted an ugly truth that the U.S. mainstream media has tried to hide from the American people: that the post-coup regime in Ukraine has relied heavily on Nazi storm troopers to carry out its bloody war against ethnic Russians, reports Robert Parry.

Ukraine definitely committed its share of war crimes in WWII. They killed untold numbers in a genocidal campaign to ethnically cleanse Poles.
Soviets raped. Americans raped. No one in WII has clean hands.
What matters most is matters today. A narrative of state-sponsored neo-nazis were used to justify the horrific invasion of Ukraine. It's a scapegoat and entertaining such a fantasy is dangerous for the people of Ukraine and the world.
I'm absolutely against the Kremlin regime, but hope they get their asses handed by a thousand Bayraktars and tank-stealing farmers. But I wouldn't immediately throw under the rug all the horrors the US has inflicted on the world with it's foreign policy. And let's not forget that the main benefactor of this infowar is 100% "our good guys" who would only report news accurately and never have done differently (aehm Iraq war, Brexit, etc).
I know propagandists are ruling my thoughts already 2 weeks into the conflict, because I see myself cheering for as many dead Russian soldiers as possible, and a smile comes over face when I look at the horrors of war, as long as the propagandist shows me my heroes are winning, but totally forgetting that the RU "elite" soldiers[3] are often just kids & petty criminals who live on the streets.
I don't believe for a minute that the criticism that has been aimed at the West for all our previous wars is 100% unjustified. And painting Oliver Stone as peddling RU propaganda is just wrong when he has a history of sticking his finger into every wound and fragile ego of those in power.

The video is propaganda because it mixes some real events by trying to present that all Ukrainians are like that or at least that the Ukrainian leaders are like that. It instigated war and now unexperienced Russian boys are being killed. And in Russia it is even forbidden to tell that there is a war going.
you are a bigger person than me.
> because it mixes some real events by trying to present
I have never seen it but if that's the case then it deserves to be called out for sure.
For example, the current scare that Ukraine has bio labs to study different biological agents. That's a normal thing, every country studies viruses and bacteria etc. for public health reasons. Some of those labs need very good containment to protect the public. Due to the war there is a risk of breaking containment. But someone reports it as “bioweapons” and now everybody is scared and think that the US is developing biological warfare in Ukraine. It is almost impossible to counteract this misinformation. It can and will be used for propaganda purposes.
