You're the one who couldn't tell Moscow from St. Petersburg.
This report is released by the Russian leftist opposition, not Westerners and not social media. It proves the crap you have been spewing has been false. You need to address that fact instead of turning to your ridiculous efforts to distract from the evidence in front of you.
A few on DU have been repeating false propaganda in order to justify war and Russian takeover of the Ukraine. Not only did the leaked documents published in Novaya Gazeta a couple of months ago demonstrate that the takeover was planned in the Kremlin before the fall of the govt in Kiev, but now you have a formal report from the leftist Russian oppositions showing $1 Billion in military spending on the war in the Ukraine. They also have testimony from the families of Russian soldiers whose loved ones died in the conflict, and a whole array of other evidence.
Are you going to admit you've been wrong? Or do you simply not care? Is the cause of promoting Russian war on the Ukraine so important that truth is inconsequential?
The irony of your remark about multiculturalism is that you and others here have been repeating racist propaganda that paints Russian speakers as inherently superior to Ukrainians. People have relied on the discourse of imperialism to justify a bloody war and thousands of deaths. One admitted to willingly engaging in disinformation in order to justify the reconstitution of the Russian empire in order to challenge US hegemony. His excuse was that is would supposedly undermine the US MIC, which is of course ridiculous since the MIC emerged out of the Cold War. The fact is it is simply a position that promotes empire and war.
