      Another video distributed by Russian state news agency RIA showed an inscription in an unidentified book supposedly recovered in the arrest — signed in Russian with the words “signature illegible.”

      This whole article is just bonkers.

        It’s so surreal it kind of makes me wonder if it’s really a false flag, because they can’t be that incompetent… Right?

      I mean, there are definitely Nazis fighting for Ukraine. As there were Nazis fighting for Wagner, it’s not exactly a secret and they have the symbols right on their uniforms.

      Lol, yeah. I just had to explain how that kind of manipulation works.

      Propaganda is a powerful force when it’s used to reinforce an existing bias. Facts are irrelevant because you saw what you wanted to see.

      Governments play the propaganda war hard. I am not picking sides over it: It is what it is.

      Edit: Confirmation bias. That is the phrase I was referring to.
