And by the way, no it isn’t great investigative work. The whole reel is a point by point regurgitation of Kremlin propaganda they’ve been churning out since 2014.

At a time when Russia uses “de-nazification” as an excuse to continue the war, while Ukrainians prisoners are branded with swastikas, we are being asked to close our eyes and ears with zero explanation for posts like these. Btw, here I am repping UCC and UCAG marching in pride

Last year after TIFF, Trofimova shared a reel from a right-wing Serbian filmmaker with whom she’s worked in the past, with the caption “Ukrainian Nazis are controlling Canada.” Her commentary? . “Holly Molly… Great investigative work by Boris”

RT does not publish sympathetic stories about individuals who are critics of Putin. Full stop.

This I feel is also important. There are people who have supported or do support this film because they are pro-Ukrainian, and cannot understand why we’re critical of it. That’s who its messaging is directed at, and our response is part of the equation that makes it effective.

Understand the gravity of this to our community. When the film is used to argue for removing Ukraine’s ability to shoot down drones and missiles that fall on cities every night, or dry up ammunition on the front line that prevents Putin from wiping more cities off the map, it.

At this point, I have no interest in them turning this into an argument about censorship. People are going to watch what they want to watch. But remember, Ukrainians are not a “special interest group”. We are the subject of this film, even if we’re absent from it. Our voice.

But that’s what makes it sophisticated. It’s not that the soldiers in the film are actors or anything like that, it’s that the film/filmmaker frame the ongoing war as a failure to communicate between Russia and the West, completely ignoring Ukrainian agency and the right to.

We said she had an agenda, that the Russian state was by all evidence fine with the film (RT even wrote sympathetically about it) and that it was bizarre for her not to be a persona non grata in Russia, where an anti-war social media post gets you jail time. And we were mocked.

Remember how Ukrainian Canadians such as myself were called censors and bullies for criticizing the film ‘Russians at War’ as Russian Soft-Propaganda? And how despite the filmmakers dubious past as an employee of Russian state media, we were being unfair to her?. I spoke out at
