Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
She would resent getting saved from being murdered by Nazis?
Like sure she may have been disgruntled having her life upended in the moment but surely she wouldn't still be holding that grudge 40 years later given what they were going to do to her if she hadn't been put on that train. This comment just reads like Nazi apologia.
Yes, obviously. I meant her city being invaded currently
So now the city is being "invaded" to stop the same sort of pogroms she faced back then, except this time the "invaders" are Russian so now it's their fault? what the hell are you even saying?
I don't think someone who was rescued by the Red Army as a child is likely to be a rabid fascist
As commrade pepperoni stated, pending any photos of her shrine to Bandera, she is probably someone who is very understandably a bit incensed by the war unfolding in her part of the world,with the front lines rapidly approaching her home
Not running defense for the Azov battalion here,but the average citizen of this region has been so thoroughly trounced repeatedly since the nineties that they're bound to have these kinds of opinions, especially considering that the frontline is advancing closer and closer to home
I mean,I have seen a glimpse of what this war looks like in real life and I think even regardless of my opinions now,if the war would move to my home,id have a hard time being a ok with the people dropping bombs on my town,even if my government is horrible and captured by western interests
I wouldn't expect her to see it that way. Imagine the propaganda you're bombarded with living in Ukraine
My comment or the old lady's? My point is that I wouldn't expect historically nuanced takes from random civilians in this situation.
spoiler
This is assuming the old lady in question does not have a giant Bandera shrine in her house or something, in which case fuck her
