If there was less twitter nonsense posted here and more reliable sources, I would be pretty pleased.

The only person I have ever put on ignore on ocuk is a prolific poster of worthless twitter nonsense. It's just annoying.

Like who?

As far as I can tell mainstream media just reposts word for word the same Ukranians and Russian sources that Twitter users do. There must be some media source you know of that I don't cause I can't think of any - whether it's cnn, bbc or whomever they aren't doing much independent research and 99% of their reporting is just reposting what was posted on Twitter a week earlier so you're getting the same news several days late

Very little point in arguing about the truth during a war, and it's not like it's been forced upon people as if it's factual information.

Wagner was never leaving Bakhmut without being kicked out.


On a separate note it is interesting to see the chagce in messaging coming out of Ukraine the last few days and it seem like their counter attack will begin soon. We seem to be getting flooded with information to keep people guessing where it will be. I guess that makes sense in the information age.

It isn't Twitter which is the problem - the quality of the source varies irrespective of the medium it is posted on.

A lot of the information first surfaces on places like Telegram and Discord, etc. which can't be so easily linked to here and/or trickier to link to due to the overall content some of which would breach forum rules. Some of these sources are people actually on the frontlines.
 
Lot of Ukrainians hitting back against the expectations of the counter-offensive. Agreed with above we've spent far too much time giving too little especially in the way of things like artillery and tanks.

They dont actually know whats coming and where - will it be a sweep down from Kharkiv behind the lines to Bhakmut and wipe out all of Wagnar? Will it be clear down to Melitopol and trap and entire army before heading to Crimea? Could all of Donetsk be retaken down to Mariupol in a blitzkrieg motion?

I'm not going to embarrass him.

I've seen some total nonsense put up here, showing a lack of effort to check whether it was correct in the rush to get anything to say. That's what annoys me.
