Because it is how propaganda works: dehumanize the enemy, and the opposite for your side: make your hangman as human as possible. It is aimed at people who don't believe there were no war crimes and therefore the spin is necessary to

Let's assume Putin is not a NATO puppet or a masochist. Why do you think he attacked Ukraine? What is there to gain? Russia made concessions to NATO for 30 years and got nothing but NATO expansion Eastward. I don't see any other e

Reddit is a typical western media that promotes corresponding world view.
