The #WinterWar ended 83 years ago today.

A bit over a year ago, I wrote about the eerie similarities between the blunders of Stalin and Putin.

The difference? Putin cannot win, but #Ukraine can still lose. Help them! Ukraine’s cause is ours.

Another thread of mine, looking at how even rumors of Western aid, or better yet intervention, can help small countries fighting for #democracy and decency.

How does it feel to live next to Russia? My experience.

“Bakhmut holds!” reminds me of ”Kollaa holds!”

How a leftist like me can support a country fighting a war for its democracy?

Very easily.

And how Finland, a democracy even though very much an imperfect one, ended up accepting help from the Nazis - after democracies wouldn’t or couldn’t help.
