Nah, it's from invading your neighbors to destroy towns and cities, bombing children's hospitals, apartment buildings, churches, bus stops, and infrastructure amidst cold winters to freeze millions of people, hunting civilians with drones, raping, abducting... among other things
The multi-vector catastrophe that's currently unfolding for Russia, its military, economy and society finally makes it to mainstream Russian media, with every show outlining the end of days.
Russian military expert Igor Korotchenko says Ukrainian now controls the front, and that in several months, its going to be much worse, not only there but deep in the rear, where long range drone strikes are only becoming more frequent.

Today, the European Union took a major step forward.
All Member States agreed to open the first accession negotiations cluster with Ukraine and Moldova.
At the first Intergovernmental Conference on Monday, we will open the cluster on fundamentals; the backbone of the accession process.
It covers the core values and principles on which the EU is built, from the rule of law to strong democratic institutions.
This is a recognition of the determination, courage and hard work shown by both countries in advancing reforms, even in the face of immense challenges.
And a signal that the EU’s offer of peace, stability and opportunity is unmatchable.
Enlargement is a strategic choice.
By bringing our nations closer together, we strengthen peace, security and prosperity across our continent.
In a world marked by growing uncertainty, a larger European Union is in our common interest.
Enlargement remains one of the EU’s greatest success stories and our best investment in our shared future.
When it comes to Vatnik Soups, it's ironic that the highest number of violent threats came after we wrote about so-called "peace advocates" like Julian Assange.
Here are the top five Soups by number of threats, in case you're interested:
1. Kim Dotcom
2. Julian Assange
3. Diana Panchenko
4. Tommy Robinson
5. Andrew Tate
Die KI schätzt, dass die Spitzen der AfD zu 80% Millionenzahlungen aus Russland bekommen für ihre Einstellung gegen Deutschland und für Russland.
Russland führt seit über vier Jahren einen völkerrechtswidrigen Angriffskrieg gegen die Ukraine.
Mit zehntausenden Toten. Städte und Infrastruktur wurden zerstört. Über 230.000 Kriegsverbrechen wurden von der UN dokumentiert.
Für die AfD ist das vollkommen in Ordung.
Die AfD stellt sich damit gegen das Völkerrecht, gegen die UN.
Die AfD stellt sich auch immer offener gegen die Interessen Deutschlands:
Ablehnung und Aufhebungsforderung von Sanktionen gegen Russland.
Reisen nach Russland während des Krieges.
Auftritte in russischen Staatsmedien und Propaganda.
Teilnahme als „Wahlbeobachter“ bei russischen Scheinwahlen.
Echo russischer Narrative zum Ukraine-Krieg.
Wiederinbetriebnahme von Nord Stream und enge Energiepartnerschaft.
Ablehnung von Waffenlieferungen und Militärhilfe für die Ukraine.
Parlamentarische Anfragen zu kritischer Infrastruktur.
Strategische Ausrichtung auf Russland und nicht auf den Westen.
Сьогодні помер мій тато, людина яка воювала з 2014 року за Україну. Він був добрий, смішний, мріяв повернутися в рідну Феодосію. Давайте сьогодні нагадаємо про нього, навіть якщо ви не були знайомі
Despite Russia’s pressure, threats and interference, people across our region are choosing a European, democratic future.
In Armenia. In Moldova. In Georgia. Ukrainians are defending it with their lives.
Belarusians chose it too.
This is where we belong. Europe is our home.
@United24media@Nike@Nike, this is an absolutely vile idea. Russia is a terrorist state, just as its predecessor, the USSR, was. Don’t give imperialistic Russians like Rubchinsky a platform or pump more money into their pockets.
