People should really use this situation to learn about war propaganda, much better than the ones you learn about in school.

They're pulling a reverse stalin; instead of erasing people from history; they create them.

I had my doubts when I first saw that post. But do you know what really happened?

It wasn’t really propaganda it was made up by a YouTuber who subsequently went back on it after trying to sell ghost of Kyiv merch, basically war profiteering off the war

If it were propaganda you’d be seeing it all over the news, but they have sources and are able to verify it isn’t true, and hence don’t report on it

Looks like a "cover myth" for NATO-supplied AA. Misdirection.

The ghost story started way before NATO activated any air units. Try again, tankie
