It Finally Happened! Donetsk Residents Openly Confronted Putin. Dirty Lies Exposed - The Russian Dude



Donetsk has become the perfect symbol of Putin’s broken promises and the brutal reality of his so‑called “liberation.” Once a functioning city with working water systems, schools, and daily life, it’s now a wasteland where residents line up for buckets of swamp water while Kremlin propaganda films “water troops” arriving like conquering heroes. Years of war and deliberate destruction of pumping stations have left reservoirs dry, pipes shattered, and locals forced to haul water up ten flights of stairs just to flush a toilet. Men were drafted en masse to the front, leaving entire communities without workers, while protests are silenced with threats of losing citizenship and property. Yet state media dresses this survival in patriotic jargon, turning basic needs into “heroic battles” and blaming everyone but Moscow. This is the truth the Kremlin doesn’t want shown: Donetsk residents are openly confronting the lies, and the cracks in Putin’s narrative are starting to show. This is not liberation—it’s the weaponization of misery.
