Prediction Thread: When Will Ukraine Conquer Russia

[BeBMan]

Yeah, certainly.

Watched it a bit, his point is more that there is not even the usual effort anymore to hide behind a barrage of misinfo/disinfo (aka lies) to have "deniability" since Putin needs to show that he's da boss again.

Looks like the first Russian movie about the war is going as well as the invasion itself:

(...)

It was a Friday evening and Alexei had come to see The Witness, Russia’s first feature-length film about its invasion of Ukraine that premiered across the country on 17 August.

The Witness centres on a fictional character called Daniel Cohen, an esteemed Belgian violinist who arrives in Kyiv to perform in February 2022, days before Russian troops entered Ukraine.

As Russia launches its war, Cohen gets caught up in the fighting, witnessing a series of “inhuman crimes and bloody provocations by Ukrainian nationalists”, according to the movie’s premise.

At one point, a Ukrainian commander is seen walking around with a copy of Mein Kampf, while other Ukrainian soldiers pledge their allegiance to Adolf Hitler. As a witness to these unspeakable horrors, Cohen sets out to tell the world the “truth” about the conflict.

In two hours of screen time, the film covers a wide spectrum of falsehoods that the Kremlin has used to justify its invasion of Ukraine. On the eve of the invasion, Vladimir Putin said Moscow had to “denazify” its neighbour, the lie that Ukraine was infiltrated by dangerous “Nazis”.

The release of The Witness comes on the back of plans announced by the Russian authorities to boost the production of movies glorifying Moscow’s actions in Ukraine.

But The Witness is a box-office flop. Set to a budget of 200 million roubles (£1.5m), it has grossed less than 14 million roubles (£110,000) in its first two weeks, with viewers across the country reporting empty cinema halls.

Russians have seen Inglourious Basterds. They know what will happen to them if they watch that movie in the cinema.

This aint good, Putin gave N Korea a ballistic missile system that can hit all over... Putin wouldn't have done that without China's permission. When Boris nixed the peace deal Russia, China and NK saw Biden wants war.

Ukraine war: 16 killed in missile attack on market town

At least 16 people have been killed in a missile attack on the Ukrainian city of Kostiantynivka.

President Volodymyr Zelensky said those killed were "people who did nothing wrong" - and warned the death toll could increase.

Kostiantynivka, in Ukraine's eastern Donetsk region, is near the front line.

"This Russian evil must be defeated as soon as possible," Mr Zelensky added. The authorities in Moscow are yet to comment on the claims.

The Ukrainian president said that a market, shops and a pharmacy had been hit in the eastern city, which sits close to the battlefield.

Videos circulating on social media appear to show the moment of the explosion and its graphic aftermath.

McDonald's hasn't ever made anyone suffer apart from the self inflicted kind invited by the masochists that willingly darken its doors.
