The war in #Ukraine continues...

My hometown is under attack for 2 days now.

My friends had to sleep in cold bombshelters together with their families and small children.

People are shocked & terrified.

Many are dead, many more are wounded.

WE NEED TO STOP THIS!

When I started tweeting about the war in Ukraine, I thought most people would ignore me.

But I got TONS of support from you folks!

HUGE THANKS for helping me spread the information about the war in our community of digital marketers. 🙏

But the war is NOT OVER!

F-ing Putin is still attacking my home country!

Likes and retweets do help, but they are not enogh.

I'm BEGGING you to put more pressure on your government officials!

Start tagging your polititians in conversations about Ukraine and demand a reaction!

If there are any online petitions in your country - please sign them.

If there's a protest - please join it.

And PLEASE!..

PLEASE don't go about your Twitter posting as usual!

I know the war is far away from you, but Tweeting about your happy busy life is very insensitive.

What if it was YOUR country?

What if those were YOUR parents and friends hiding in bombshelters?

What if those were YOUR people dying in thousands?

I know this can be stopped.

But only if we unite and everyone contributes a little bit of their help.

One might argue that there are many wars and tragedies in the world and life has to continue.

Well..

Ukrainian tragedy JUST BROKE OUT!

And there's still a good chance to STOP IT!

I'm sure it's not that big of a sacrifice to backlog your tweets in a Google doc for a few days.

Even the Elon freaking Musk is providing REAL HELP to Ukraine!!

So PLEASE!..

Please carve out a bit of time in your busy schedules and research what you can do to help Ukraine survive this.

I know our community is incredibly empathetic and caring.

And I'm begging you folks to help us. 🙏
