Title, I'm a leftist but after reading some things on lemmygrad and here it seems I might have been lied to all my life. I have talked with some people from Cuba and Venezuela (expats) that support the west narrative about poverty and mismanagement. I "believe" that Russia is attacking Ukraine for selfish reasons and that China censors access to foreign information using the Great Firewall, please prove me wrong. Furthermore, it ultimately depends who do you want to believe or there are hard facts from reputable sources that are simply a hidden by the mass media?

EDIT: Thanks everyone for your very civil responses. I'll answer as many as I can!

    Regarding the Euromaiden and Donbass stuff and the crucial role of fascist groups in them you can even find peer reviewd western academic analysis from before the war attesting to that

      I hope every fascist on the Ukraine side kills every fascist on the Russian side and vice versa, preferably as simultaneously and instantly as possible :gigachad:
