What would even count as a “credible source”? It’s a cellphone video from someone in the warzone, it’s raw footage from the source. Yes I get he could and would say anything, they’re all saying the same shit.

They are indeed hard to find in war, if that's what you mean, but there are good sources - intercepted communications, for example; anonymous interviews with current Russian soldiers; interviews with people they talk to; etc etc > It’s a cellphone video from someone in the warzone, it’s raw footage from the source. Raw footage is less credible. It lacks the fact-checking around it. The NY Times, for example, has put dozens of reporters in Ukraine to corroborate, fact-check, etc. - that's the value of actual journalists compared to some video on the Internet. > they’re all saying the same shit. I have seen that but it could be that Ukrainian messaging is consistent, and spreading messages that enemy morale is low is a very common, basic tactic. However, there seems to be other evidence of low morale. However true it is, I'm glad Ukraine is doing it effectively!
