That's the claim but where's the evidence. I'm not going around pretending the enemy is diminished when it's actually not.

    Exactly this. I keep reading all of the stuff posted about this and I have yet to see evidence. And in fact, while i'm not a security expert, I am a hosting expert, and I can tell you: That is not how they operate. They obfuscate their origin as much as possible, else it would be trivial to filter them and block them.

    I respect Ukraine and Zelenskyy, but I think this claim is untrue.

    When laypeople read a diplomatic statement and take it at face value it's a good sign they're media illiterate or just want what was said to be true desperately, reality be damned. I know Zelensky is fighting a war and puffing his chest saying shit to look strong. That's fine it's his job as wartime leader.

    I'm Albertan so I'm feeling rather paranoid about letting my guard down is all.
