i stopped sharing info about my family weeks ago. some of them got trapped on the russian occupied territories, while for others the frontline is edging closer. but they are still there. under bombs. unwilling to leave their homes behind
me keeping my mouth shut means they will be less likely identified and specifically targeted by russian orcs in a revenge kill or extortion. but it doesn't mean stories of destruction, looting, death, rape and anxiety caused by russians stopped. i just can't share them anymore
it means i am forced to channel them another way.

through bottomless hate towards every russian citizen — and those with at least a drop of decency are imploding with self-hate already. they fail at stopping this genocide every day. fuck that 'good russians' bs. russia must die

feels especially cruel to talk about never again to part of my family trapped on russian occupied zaporizhia lands today. 77 years later fascist soldiers break into the same houses, rob and search them, strip men naked and make fun of how they say words in ukrainian. again
77 years later fascist soldiers kidnap heads of our democratically elected councils, any males between 18 and 60 who rub them up the wrong way. they take them away and we never hear from them after. again.
77 years later fascist soldiers harass and rape our women. snatch them while they go about their business on the streets in the middle of day. they end up in the sex slave dungeons of the occupiers and we never hear from them after. again

your 'good russians' in fucking action - a russian journalist living under protection of eu law publicly censoring and harassing ukrainians amid genocide for criticizing imperialist and colonial views of 'liberal russians.' imagine the depth of this moral bankruptcy
for context: @nata_druhak wrote a thread criticizing horrendously deaf, insensitive, offensive interview by one of the intellectual leaders of russian 'liberals'. she rightly questioned whether such comments are in line with her german employer. she had to take it down bc of this
dude lives safely under the protection of eu law, works for @meduzaproject that is funded by western grants, still thinks it is okay to censor ukrainian voices during the genocide that his country waged on us. the best illustration that 'good russians' bs always ends at ukraine

the whole pain of ukraine in this single video.

a holocaust survivor who rebuilt her own city just to see it flattened in a second holocaust by russians. this is also the last story produced by @RFERL’s vira hrynych who was killed by a russian rocket in her own apartment

the wokeness and humanity of western radical left always stops at russian colonial kleptocracy and its genocide in ukraine. the squad helping russian capitalism to exterminate ukrainians? not fucking surprised, neither should you.
there has been actually tons of solid research exposing ideological shallowness of western radical right & left, as well as how outdated the idea of right-left political spectrum is. the way they collapse into each other over support for russian colonialism is 🤌🏼 illustration
same reason why in vibrant, diverse and young democracies like ukraine you see almost non—existent electoral support for both commies and fascists. both radical right and left put us through genocide and pillage. we learned our XXth century lessons and moved on. the west hasn’t
