Just that. Someone uploaded this photo of Zelensky allegedly taking a selfie in Kupiansk, which is supposed to be a city already taken by Russian forces. I am not really informed of the situation in Kupiansk, but this is not the issue for me.
In the Politics subreddit, where this was published, the comments are overwhelmingly pro Ukraine, which, well, checks out. But what I find kind of trollish, are the comments surrounding Zelenksy. It’s like reading the five-star comments of the Google Play Services app in the Play Store, or something. They repeatedly talk about how big and glorious are Zelensky’s balls? Praising his balls, even though, he is a smaller guy? They praise the bold actions of Zelensky calling him a European hero, imagining his heroic dialogues as in some cheap hollywood movie, etc. To me, it just feels utterly fake? I mean, AI fake.
What do you make of this, guys? Please, remember, it’s not about the conflict itself.
The article I read which had this photo featured stated that Putin had invited a bunch of reporters to Kupiansk to see how the Russian forces had surrounded the city.
Then Zelensky went there and took this photo to be like “oh no, Russia has this place surrounded? I would have never known”
No Idea if that’s true, but that’s the gist I took away from that post.
Therefore the balls, it figures. Some other comment includes a song by Primus vocalist from three years ago, unashamedly titled “Zelensky, the man with the iron balls”. And yeah, this trend of talking about his balls, I remember it started several years ago, but it amazes me right now, after years of war and loss.
