Ivan Katchanovski is a political scientist at the Univ. of Ottawa. He writes a lot about Ukraine, far right groups, Maidan & Russia. You might see him in interviews or cited by leftist anti-Ukraine people. He wrote an article last month. I read it and include below some excerpts. 
These may be useful in refuting claims (if you like arguing with the tankies). In order to seem reasonable to their peers, academics often give both sides of an issue. To appeal to tankies he has more strident rhetoric. At the corner of reason & rhetoric is bonking ground.
The source
Katchanovski: the Russian invasion was illegal.
Katchanovski: Russia has killed most of the civilians who died this year.
Katchanovski: Russian attacks were responsible for the vast majority of civilian deaths even in Donbas.
Katchanovski: Russian claims of false flag attacks are untrue.
Katchanovski: Overwhelming evidence proves that Russia committed war crimes in Bucha.
Katchanovski: There was no genocide in Donbas - most civilians there weee killed by Russia.
p.s. don’t tell anyone we did research or they’ll call us nerds - gay Satanist nazi nerd fart-fetishists who are 60 and live in our mother’s basement with our hot Ukrainian girlfriends
Uh oh. Either he searches for his name every few hours or I’ve got a secret friend. Hello secret friend - I love you!
