Its a drab dreary morning in Arkansas, most of us are still bloated from yesterday. To my non-American friends yesterday was Thanksgiving in the US and it is our biggest feast day of the year. A people already known for over eating and indulgence go all out for this one. However
what follows that Thursday of Gluttony is a Friday of miserly yet riotous shopping. Right now at 7AM local time there are people who were running as if zombies were chasing them to be the first to lay hands on the gigazised TV hours ago. Black Friday store shopping horror stories
are epic. Thankfully now we have Amazon so that shoppers who don't want to throw elbows to buy their grandkid a toy can still throw dollars at consumerism like a lotto winner at a strip club. <--- Thats me by the way. Not the Lotto winner the person who doesn't want to throw

#Izyum Axis and ISW Map - #Russian forces made small gains around #Severodonetsk by fully capturing Stara Krasnyanka and consolidating gains around #Kreminna. #Russia also appears to be making headway in #Rubizhne with #Ukraine troops pushed out of the city center. ๐Ÿงต
To the south of #Izyum, the #Russians have pushed into the village of Dibrovne (circled in white) and the area is now contested. ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ assaults on several smaller villages in the area were repelled by #Ukrainian forces.
To the south of #Izyum #Russian forces were stopped before reaching the city limits of Dovhenโ€™ke. #Ukraianian troops inflicted heavy losses on the attacking ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ, who retreated after suffering too many casualties.

๐ŸงตInteresting, just how much #Russia's imperialism and genocidal policies are enabled in the west by stuff like "Czech Republic? It's kinda Russia or something, right?". Ofc for centuries so called #Russians (marginal, easternmost Slavs) tried to replace "Slavs" with "Russians"
And to the west it was apparently rather convenient with the realities of the #soviet union. Even after it collapsed, there's still to much of this "#Ukraine is part of #Russia that is not Russia now" spirit. And globally, even in memes, they replace "Slav" with "#Russian gopnik"
Among all the Slavic nations, most of the Slavs are integral part of #Europe, most of Slavic nations are either #EU members or strive to be #EU members and rather oppose #Russia. But, in pop culture - they're all basically #Russians. Very convenient.
