JustHoran Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 People in Ukraine are DYING and suffering, and they are posing for Vogue? Disgusting. This is why you don't overhype politicians. He clearly is loving the fame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZIVERT Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Also, it’s clear none of you guys know any actual Ukrainians. Everyone is loving this photoshoot and happy to see a major magazine like Vogue talk about Ukraine. But continue to speak for us, ATRL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Cat Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 A thought of any president doing a vogue photoshoot while in a war is both embarrassing, funny and just a mindfuck. I'm trying to imagine Tudman or Milosevic doing the same photoshoot in the 90s and makes me laugh af. Im going to hell for this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount of pro-Russia, anti-NATO/US/EU propaganda in this forum is nuts.

My prediction (so don't come at me for "conspiracy theories" or "misinformation"): years from now, or maybe sooner, we'll find out that Zelensky was bought by Putin and working with him this entire time.

Jotham Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Y'all are making such a big deal over this. Personally, I think Putin carrying out a literal invasion and genocide is much more troublesome than Zelensky doing a photoshoot with his wife to raise awareness.

Beyonnaise Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 (edited) Vogue being a fashion magazine is what's bad about the optics here. I think photojournalism is important and wouldn't really see a problem if these pics were for NYT Magazine, for example. But this is like a posed pop culture photoshoot that is putting him in this space of being a celebrity figure when his people are being bombed, it's weird.

I've never cringed so hard. And can some of y'all stop the "Russian propaganda" arguments? Nobody here who's criticizing this photoshoot is anti-Ukraine or pro-Russia. We just think it's a tacky photoshoot; it doesn't mean we don't sympathize with Ukraine. Edited July 27, 2022 by Sugar-Rush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russia literally has a past Ukraine puppet president who is currently sheltering in Russia because he was overthrown for corruption and selling the country to Russia. They don't need Zelensky and him embarrassing Russia doesn't fit their agenda either. People here seem to pray to be proven right about Ukraines corruption but they miss the immense efforts that the current government is issuing to change that. They will gain more from meeting EU standards than they would from pocketing the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What type of victim-blaming mentality is this? It's a ridiculous comment because Zelensky "begging" has nothing to do with why America is sending billions to Ukraine. This is Cold War 2.0. Ukraine is like Korea. It's all about the people in power in Washington who still think it's 1995 and America can play world police. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ice Cream Skies Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Vogue is a FASHION magazine, which is why people are grossed out by this. You know. With Dua Lipa and the Kardashians on the front cover. People aren't really checking Vogue for war coverage, luvs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
