Yes, the first two are anti-war comments, which I can see even in the comments, not just referring to the war as a war.
The third one is "Radio Free Europe", which is USG-funded propaganda, and which in the story claims someone who insulted Putin and told him to burn in hell.
Is there even a single instance of someone even arrested for calling it a 'war'? Even the woman who protested live on air got nothing more than a fine.
Oleg Mammadov, an activist and member of Russia's Libertarian Party, is just one of a growing number of people across the country who have been punished in the wake of new stringent laws that effectively criminalize all criticism of Putin's war.
As of mid-May, Russian authorities had opened at least 1,938 cases of "discrediting the armed forces," according to OVD-Info, a watchdog group that that tracks the number of arrests in Russia, Radio Free Europe reported.
Russian politician and ex-candidate for the State Duma Mikhail Lobanov was also detained for 15 days for "discrediting" the country's military on his social media networks. He was ordered to pay a fine of 40,000 rubles.
And yet the advocates of "freedom and democracy Libya-style" were saying that she'd surely be tortured and jailed, perhaps even poisoned with polonium.
The question was not whether it's a "problem", however you define that. The question was whether people are jailed for calling the war a war. So far, not one example.
Maybe I wasn't clear, a person is jailed or fined for referring this war as a war(even protesting against it) , and saying anything against the government approved "facts".
The price replacing lady is in jail now for instance.

Its already a problem when one is fined.
