Maria Zacharova (Kremlin) seems to think the most important thing right now is that the whole world condemns the attack, which I find to be a kind of weird priority since the thing just happened and we have no fucking clue what is going on.

You can still condemn it even if you don't know exactly who's behind it.

Absolutely! It wasn't my intention to insinuate that you cannot. My point is that she was very quick to come out and demand it be done. Of course terror attacks should be condemned. All I'm saying is that the Kremlin has some weird priorities when there's an ongoing attack. Almost like they're trying to control the discussion and steer it towards something else.

Yeah not an extemely useful propaganda plot device at all then. You're not with the terrorists, are you? You better stand up and clap your hands and stomp your feet in sympathy.

nah I don't condemn anything. Either it was some pro-ukranian group (fair, bring the war to russia!), or more likely, some covert op from the fsb so that this russian cunt in charge can order a new drafting...

It is never fair to murder civilians. I don't blame Ukraine if there is terrorism and insurgency due to the occupation of eastern Ukraine, that's firmly Putin's fault. But that also doesn't make it ok.

And suddenly here you are standing together in sympathetic unity with The Kremlins. It's hard making people see propaganda when they have become so desensitized to it

Let's hope Putin will find some way to finally stop the forces of evil defiling his land after this.
