Small🧡on peculiar thing about difference between #Ukrainians and #Russians. Separatist from #Crimea #Poklonskaya faces backlash in #Russia after calling Russia's "Z-swastika" a symbol of tragedy and grief as solders get wounded and die... 1/5 ImageImage
Wondering what can possibly be joyful about death, she shows the difference in mentality between even pro-#Russian but originally #Ukrainian separatists & #Russians themselves: where 'small Russian' is taught to be silent & agree with government, Ukrainian #Poklonskaya speaks 2/5
#Poklonskaya, despite supporting #Russian annexation of #Crimea, seems to genuinely not understand why would ordinary people want to wear the "Z-swastika" and be proud of it when it's really a tragedy for the Russians who are getting killed in the first place. 3/5
Not to make a hero out of her (she's still a criminal separatist), it's still interesting that #Ukrainian mentality makes #Poklonskaya infinitely different from #Russians as she rejects at least the most ridiculous manifestations of #Russian #fascism & is not silent about it 4/5
Coming from a symbol of #Russia expansion it's also more useful than all twits by 'opposition' #navalny #Russian fascists at least listen to her No, they will not get cured of chauvinism, but they see that #Ukrainians even if separatists are different from sheepish #Russians 5/5
PS: it's kinda ironic how the ones who supported #Russia aggression, eventually end up hated and even disposed of (e.g. Mozgovoy) by facist #Russians themselves - πŸ‡·πŸ‡Ί needs territories and money, not #Ukrainians who are different and dangerous even if they support #Russia

🧡1/6. Peculiar reports from #Russia (a fascist mafia state) of series of unfortunate 'suicides' where Russian officials (who are in fact mafia sub-bosses) get butchered with their families - indication of mafia clan wars within Russian 'elites' as the crisis worsens in Russia ImageImageImage
2/6 This is significant, because #putin launched the war exactly to prevent the mafia infighting caused by the crisis (Russia's own+ COVID) - #Russians hated #Ukrainians always, but putin launched the war only now because he NEEDED to solve the crisis at the expense of Ukraine
3/6 #putin wanted a blitzkrieg to get control over #Ukraine with little sanctions to avoid the clan wars for dwindling resources within #Russia mafia state at our expense. But as we fight back & sanctions are imposed the crisis only worsens forπŸ‡·πŸ‡Ίand it fuels the mafia infighting Image

🧡1372+ hrs since #Ukrainian Patriotic War of Independence was started by #Russia full scale attack & 2983? days since #RussiaInvadedUkraine
Situation remains very serious, can't really write much on that because it's war, the exact picture at this moment is not clear.
Yet #Donbas bulge can indeed be compared to #Kursk bulge of #WW2 when #Nazis of 1940s much like todays too couldn't afford to wait longer and launched offensive against fortified front.
It's clear though that #Russian fascists inevitably suffer losses, it's natural, but it will be several tense weeks.
Strategically though, regardless of the outcome of the offensive, p*tin's lost long ago, he won't get new vassal, whatever he tries to take won't cover his losses

I'm afraid world doesn't truly believe that Russia indeed went full fascist. Maybe the term was abused too much since WW2 or it's just more convenient politically to still deny the reality. Kinda doublethink to see genocide, maybe even talk about it, but try acting like it's BAU
It's classic militaristic frenzy in Russian 'society', propaganda preps subjects 4 aggressive war against NATO, masses adopt fascist rhetoric & aesthetics, regime uses inherent Russian hatred for Ukrainians 2 legitimize itself as force to lead Russia to victory over inhuman enemy ImageImage
Btw "Z-swastika" wasn't originally scripted, it was just one of the markings for Russian invasion force, Kremin already had "Georgiyevskaya riboon" as it's official swastika - another empty symbol to rally behind, they even used it on their troops for planned photo ops. ImageImageImageImage

Still can't write much. #Russia launched offensive, several attacks. Hopefully they suffer losses. #Mariupol still hurts the most...
As for the offensive in general, Idk, no need to be a military expert to see what the no-brainer solution for them would be, some attacks apparently were as expected, but ofc, Russians will attack everywhere they're able to put enough forces
So really it's not that clear, and all I can do is just work, donate donate donate and trust. Idk what to write now really. Need more heavy weapons, some were provided, but not clear, hopefully it's only sounds publicly like not enough and not all the required things are provided

Can't write much now, not much is clear really, situation may be changing. What doesn't change is that it hurts for #Mariupol...
More shell strikes, apparently attempts to advance. Hard to make conclusions, but #Ukrainian army doesn't just sit and wait, when possible there are counter attacks as there are reports that #Ukraine regained control of #Maryinka near #Donetsk.
However, the main attacks probably may be along #Izium-#Kurakhove axis. But if #Russians manage to get more men they may try broader actions + they will try attacking everywhere they can, not minding own losses, not to speak of our civilians, anyway. Their playbook since soviets

HasπŸ‡·πŸ‡Ίlaunched offensive? Maybe already. maybe not yet, They shelled towns, killed civilians in #Kharkiv again, can't write my concerns...
But obviously it hurts to think about #Mariupol. And in #Izium they try to drive locals into joining their forces to fight against own people, basically like soviet penalty battalions I guess, only the penalty's for being #Ukrainian,terror in #Kherson, preps for fake 'referendum'
The insanity is the inevitability of the onslaught coupled with uttter pointlessness of Russian offensives - they only destroy, no point in capturing ruins, but they want it, just to present a "victory" while really putin's simply lost in the first week, his war cannot be won
