  1. And I can’t believe that such a sizable group here in the US and in Europe wants to have this back. Absolute psychopathic horror.

  2. Is it weird to find these videos “censored” on the internet? Like why hide the gruwesome images of what was actually done

  3. A family story from a Ukrainian. My great grandma told me a story of how our family were trying to hide a family of Jews in their house in the village. The parents were already taken, only two sisters and a brother remained. At night nazis came for them so they rushed through the window. One of the oficers shot at the younger boy that was the last one trying to get out. The boy fell on the ground failing to get out i time, but my great grandfather (standing close to the window) saw that he was still alive (probably fainted or pretended to be shot). The offices wanted to make sure he’s dead and atarted approaching him. At that moment my (then a baby) grandma started crying, woken up from the gunshot. So my great grandfather begged the officer to leave the house, saying that the boy is already dead and the baby is crying, will attract unwanted attention, so the officer left. That’s how that boy and his sisters were saved. The older sister then left her golden ring as a gratitude, but then the russians came and took everything they had, including the animals they owned and of course any jewelry. Moral of the story: fuck nazzis, fuck russians.

  4. Horrible. It’s so hard to process that people who lived regular lifes before the war with kids and wives and pets and everything were able to commit such terrible crimes.

  5. That was a vile thing to do. Remember reading about it in the 90’s in The Holocaust by Martin Gilbert, went on years later to study anti-semitism. Insane stuff altogether. May the victims rest in peace.

  6. I’m sure that after being treated so cruelly they would never think of mistreating another group of people, right?

  7. I am from Germany. People here in the us often ask why nobody did anything to prevent this. Look around, are you doing anything to counter the disgusting things said about the others, be it immigrants, LBBTG, women ?

  8. The Nazi with his hands behind his back…Jesus. Just business as usual…all going according to plan. Disgusting.

  9. I think I saw a documentary about this on the National Geographic channel and this video interpretation is too soft, compared to what they really did there.
    Citation needed, though.

  10. I read the novel by [Anatoly Kuznetsov](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatoly_Kuznetsov) when I was in my late-teens and it left a huge impression on me. It’s a sort of Boys’ Own adventure, only set in the midst of an industrial scale genocide.

    When reports started to surface about what the Russians were up to in Bucha my mind went straight to it, as I imagined that rampant invasion force rolling over sleepy rural communities, leaving behind shell shocked survivors in its terrible wake.

  11. Goddamn AI voiceovers are such a pain.

    “Disgusting event. Truly horrible. One of the blackest pages in history. PFFT LOL write a script, AI it, CLOUT BABYYYYYYYYYYYY”

    Piss off.

  12. The bulk of the dirty work was carried out by Ukrainian *Hilfeswillige*, “willing help”, volunteer police auxiliaries

    The Germans had figured out by this point that extermination assignments were harmful to the morale of soldiers

    *Ordinary Men* by Christopher Browning, covers this topic
