This is a pretty dense one. It's wild how explicit things get. For example:
Such Russian clichés like "referendum in Crimea" or "will of the people of Crimea" are absolutely unacceptable.
The document deems unacceptable the terms “Civil war in Donbass,” “Internal conflict,” “Conflict in Ukraine” and “Ukrainian crisis” to describe the Ukrainian military’s war with the breakaway republics of the Donbass region.
Proper wording is critical. While highlighting the situation in Ukraine, a clear reference must always be done to Russia as an aggressor. We protect the entire Europe, not only ourselves, as Putin will not stop in Ukraine.
...these “verified sources that objectively cover what is happening in Ukraine” are anything but independent. Most of them are tied to the U.S. and European governments and billionaire foundations.
It's amazing how directly the language filters through to places like :reddit-logo: too. How much of it is actual paid shills, and how much of it is people internalizing this stuff verbatim?
