Just 8 months ago, I supported Ukraine. 8 months ago, I defiled a Hollister hoodie with wall paint. 8 months ago, I fell for the mainstream narrative that Russia was wrong, even though I've vehemently supported and stood for Russia for years. 
6 months ago, I stumbled upon videos and pictures of what Ukraine had done to Donbas and Lugansk. Dead children. Dead elderly. Dead young women and men. Mothers. Fathers. All innocent civilians who fell victim to the shelling and bombings from Ukrainians forces
6 months ago, I learned I was being lied to yet again. I learned the Ukrianian military was using hospitals, parks, playgrounds, schools, daycares, and hotels as shields. I learned they used civilians as human shields. It was all brushed off as "Russian propaganda."
Then I learned about US foreign policy. I learned about the 5+ billion the US spent to interfere with Ukrianian politics. I learned about Kolomoisky and Gennadiy stealing billions from Ukriane's PrivatBank. I learned about Zelensky's offshore holdings and shady connections.
I learned about the Nazism that was and is rampant in Ukrianian society. Their memorials to Nazi collaborators. I heard them on their national television call for the extermination of Russian children. Their defiling of Jewish graves and monuments.
It shook me to my core to learn all of this at once. Once again I was manipulated. The truth I thought I knew crumbled down around me. I couldn't trust a word coming from any MSM regarding Russia or Ukraine. I couldn't and don't trust my government, my media nor my education.
Godspeed to the eastern nations who are trying to dismantle western hegemony. I see your vision for a better and diverse multipolar world, and I stand by it and will stand by it until the very end. #istandwithrussia
