That's a good point of view.

I think the post received quite some downvotes because it itself had a lot of propaganda and false information. Like this:

And now, just this week, Russians are being awakened by the deafening noise of emergency war sirens as a simultaneous "military combat readiness check" took place for Russian soldiers from August 25th-31st ...

This is just ridiculous. I am from Russia and my whole family and a lot of friends live there. Of course there are some scheduled military tests which we don't even notice and don't read about. And the story that there is some military alarm that people hear in the cities is just funny to read:)
