30% population of pre-SMO Ukraine was Russian. And a dicriminated minority. Who invaded whom is a matter of how well versed you are with one side of propaganda and how ignorant of the other.

Please provide evidence to the contrary then.

It's extremely easy to find tons of images of russian troops invading Ukraine.

I have yet to find any images of Ukraine invading Russia.

Russian side of propaganda is not too difficult to find, even in the English world. Why don't you do a google search by yourself and list 10 results of what you found ?

Why would I go out of my way to prove your point? Why would I ever look for Russian propaganda?

Your argument is yours to prove not mine.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

You haven't substantiated your own assertion about NATO not invading Russia. It is your point at stake. I simply pointed you to an undeniable fact that torpedos your assertion, and pointed you to relevant literature, which you are refusing to look into.

Your point stands logically punctured. Feel free to flee.

Lol. You can't just say without sources that NATO invaded Russia and then get mad when I deny it. That's like the people that claim that the earth is flat say that everyone else has to prove otherwise.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, and you have none.

Flat eathers actually give what they think is evidenxe fir their claims.
Looks like you haven't actually read much there either.

[โ€“] [email protected] -1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Lol, says the dude that gives no evidence.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Says the guy who needs no evidence for his beliefs.
