    It probs needs its own post. I do feel corruption and cruel behaviour should be addressed. I am in full support of Ukraine and understand how much a story can damage morale.

    However washing over it or ignoring it does more damage.

      I think you’re right, there’s need for articles by investigative journalists specialized in European far-right networks research to counter the spin machine of 3rd corps (of which OP’s link is a blatant example). Both domestically and internationally. Unfortunately, this niche is currently void, as the most knowledgeable people formerly dedicated to antifascist journalism are busy in the military now. I encourage people to read the archives of Liva Sprava and Nihilist (if you know the languages), because these blogs were an excellent example of Ukrainians being critically honest about Ukrainian politics, which IMO is the real patriotism.
