Very good video on how we got to where we are in #Ukraine youtube.com/watch?v=YfC7s1…

@daverburgess Oliver Stone’s "Ukraine on Fire" is undistilled Kremlin propaganda xsovietunion.blogspot.com/2016/12/oliver…

@carpathicus That was quick……have you watched it? Do you have a problem with other people watching it & making up their own minds?

@daverburgess Of course you are free to make up your mind, just know that 'documentary' it is not necessarily unbiased. The article in the link I posted was written by a Russian civil rights activist, by the way.

@carpathicus It looks very interesting & lots of things I already knew about events is included, especially about the people who circle the current POTUS. In fact this entire video could’ve been made about what’s happening now, & yet it was made in 2016, how strange do you find that?

@daverburgess I don't find it strange at all because nothing that happens today was unforeseen or unexpected. In fact there were people already predicting the current events in 2014. Also the political 'splits' in Ukraine, were not unique, but very similar in other former Soviet countries.

@carpathicus That’s not quite true, Ukraine has always had a right-wing nationalistic political presence. The deeper you dig, the murkier it becomes. The video I’ve just watched could’ve been written for current events, it was almost a prediction you could say.
