Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

"Apparent"
Shot himself in the back of the head he did.
Twice!
And his ghost was still so ashamed it threw the corpse out the window.
"in"
“an”
i'd say that confirms his blog's credibility, at least...
Death by suicide seems to be Russia’s verification process ✅
Do you guys ever have anything other to say than "haha window" and "lol shot himself 5 times"? Every time there's an article like this, the comments are all the same exact shit, never an original thought in sight.
As for the guy himself, Murz was a war-mongering twat and he did shoot himself after being ordered to remove his telegram post about Russia's losses in Avdiivka and some bullying from the state propaganda headed by Solovyov. Everyone's better off with him dead. Rest in piss, hopefully he won't be the last problem to solve itself.
That's because ridiculously obvious not suicide is a Russian specialty. It's not just a joke.
Regardless of his opinions, factual reporting is a good thing for everyone. He reported on Russian Losses to the Russian People, that makes him an act of good in my philosophy.
Maybe we wouldn't be so numb to the dark reality of politically motivated "Suicide" if it weren't such a common occurrence in Russia.
Did he "apparent suicide" himself out a window? It's funny how that sort of thing tends to suddenly afflict people who don't follow the Kremlin's narrative.
Unfortunately, no, this is a clear case of firearms and alcohol related death. He injected whiskey directly into his veins and fell backwards onto his gun 5 times.
He was using Windows.
Boot then crash.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
Andrei Morozov, who also served as a soldier on the front line in Ukraine, said in his last post Wednesday that he decided to “execute” himself to help his comrades in arms avoid fallout from his critical publications, which had angered the military command.
Morozov, who went by the nickname Murz, said in a recent post that about 16,000 Russian troops were killed and the military lost about 300 armored vehicles since October when the four-month battle for the eastern stronghold of Avdiivka began.
Russian war bloggers like Morozov have provided a more factual alternative to terse statements from military officials and a flow of propaganda on state TV channels, giving detailed accounts of the fighting.
While all of them ardently supported the Kremlin’s war in Ukraine, they offered a glimpse into problems faced by Russian troops and assailed the military leadership for ill-conceived tactics and neglect for soldiers’ needs.
One of the most popular war commentators, Igor Strelkov, was handed a four-year prison sentence last month on charges of extremism after he called Putin a “nonentity” and a person of “cowardly mediocrity.” He argued that a total mobilization is needed for Russia to achieve victory and accused the Kremlin of indecision and weakness.
Strelkov, whose real name is Girkin, is a retired security officer who led Moscow-backed separatists in eastern Ukraine in 2014 and was convicted of murder in the Netherlands for his role in the downing of a Malaysia Airlines passenger jet that year.
The original article contains 566 words, the summary contains 246 words. Saved 57%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
It's weird how he starts talking about the Terminator movie and samurais at the end of his post. Bizarre guy.
Google Translated:
Just never again tell your soldiers before a battle, “You won’t change a thing!” tell them what John Connor asked Kyle Reese to tell his mother - “There is no destiny except the one we create for ourselves.” That being said, let's personally say thank you to Jim Cameron for this wonderful film, right here in Hollywood. If I manage to “change something,” give me an example to the soldiers.
In the samurai code “Bushido,” which was written down on paper at the moment when the samurai began to forget it, it is written, among other things:
Often revenge consists of simply breaking into the enemy’s house and dying.
Google improved regarding Russian, it seems.

As they say, let's personally thank Jim Cameron for this fine movie, right in Hollywood. If I succeed in "making a difference" - cite me to the soldiers as an example.

War is such a stupid waste of resources. Few people at the top reap the rewards whole everyone else pays the cost.
That sounds a lot like capitalism...
In Soviet Russia, Moscow suicides you.
Yeah, right.
