The information war on this is already very hot. Diametrically opposed viewpoints coming from each side.
US: The russians are about to invade.
Russia: No we aren't.
Honestly, as someone on the outside of this I really have no idea what to believe. Is Putin just putting up a show of force but not actually going to pull the trigger, or is this the real deal preps for imminent invasion?
- Eddy_Viscosity2 5y agoYeah, looks like it was the real deal.

- invalidname 5y agoThis is a false equivalency. I get into this a lot with Russian immigrants. They're so used to distrusting the government they distrust everything. Sure, our politicians lie. But with the exception of Trump this is at a "reasonable" scale and they're usually held accountable. You can check them up. In the case of dictators lying is the default and if you try to hold them to account you'll breath Polonium pretty soon... It's pretty clear whose lying here.
