I look at the separatists in Ukraine through the lens of what's been happening to our political right for the past 5-6 years. This is what Putin does. He uses spin and propaganda and lies to split people apart and create division. In the case of Ukraine, they've been consuming a steady stream of propaganda for 10 years, especially in the eastern parts of the country. Putin did this to undermine the budding democracy in Ukraine after they overthrew his puppet dictator. He wanted an uprising of his own that would rise up and take the country back from the pro-democracy wing of Ukraine. It failed. So he tried to corrupt Zelensky. That failed so he tried to assassinate him. That failed so then he decided to just go in and overthrow the government.



He's tried to do the same thing to break apart the EU, NATO and he's been trying to same thing in the US.
 
Perhaps it's time to wage more misinformation campaigns in Russia to sow discontent with Putin amongst the Russian electorate.

For example, I heard Putin has a boyfriend on the side.
 
it's not exactly Putin's propaganda. People that are in Donetsk are ethnically and linguistically Russian. They naturally want to be apart of Russia

I wonder if the CIA is already on that.

Give them a map and a car ride to Russia then. Lots easier and saner to do then turning a nation into a large killing field.
