    Whole presentation is more like taking big glass of Kool aid from Brian. To imply that Kherson has no value itself is silly to say least of many statements. If it was of no value ,why did Russian went after city as a first target of invasion on February 24?
    He has been repeating another big lie that he is disputing claims since many months that war was not started by Russian? It is difficult to accept such upside down logic. I will urge all people in audience not to support him on PATREON or any other outlets to spread such lies.
