Imagine if you would a US politician coming out and saying, "No mercy for X population"! The internet would melt down, there would be boycotts, investigations, demands for resignations, marches... twitter bans...

Anyone think that will happen here? Of course not. Twitter can ban Trump but not Russian, Chinese or Iranian politicians and diplomats. The only recourse Ukraine will have is too soundly beat Russia and liberate her territory and people. That requires people like us dedicated to

contacting people like @JohnBoozman @SenTomCotton and @RepFrenchHill and telling them to continue to support @POTUS as he sends arms to Ukraine. In fact, Amb U's tweet was in response to a message about such aid is my case in point. Western aid is wrecking Russian military might

and smashing her dreams of the imperial rebirth. Of course, those smashed dreams permit the flowering of more dreams from more people who can dream of a future free of an imperial yoke. Given that Russia is the world's oldest and last colonial empire means there are a lot of

cultures whose dreams have been on ice for a very long time. The Grand Duchy of Muscovy began expanding more than 100 years before the Portuguese set foot in the Azores starting what would become the West's age of colonization. Now as the West wrestles with its shameful past,

Russia is continuing its own historic behavior. As I have said previously, genocide is a feature not a bug of empire and the ambassador's comments are fully in-line with this historical maxim. The only real difference is now his nonsense gets noticed by the people he wants to

have no mercy on and they can effectively say NO. Speaking of saying NO, yesterday @MriyaReport had on a Ukrainian nuclear safety expert. She revealed that Russia has kept the reactors hot at the Zaporizhya NPP. Granted, she wishes Ukraine had put them into cold shut down before

the war, but since then Russia has kept them hot despite being on/near the front lines. That is madness and requires a level of callous disregard that indicates no ability to think ahead or feel any sort of empathy. If you think ahead and feel empathy for the victims of Russian

aggression consider donating to @MriyaAid, or join #WeAreNAFO since #NAFOexpansion is non-negotiable. A donation to @georgian_legion will get you a #Fella and you can join an army of world citizens who have joined Ukraine in saying NO. At the end of the day it is going to take

every voice we can muster, both the Ukrainian ones who must live the #GenocideofUkrainians and those of us who lend them our strength to survive it. Until Ukraine wins on Ukraine's terms, Slave Ukraini! Now it is time to get ready to go see creatures. Does Ukraine have

#seaturtle beaches? I know Russian has crushed the marine mammal life in the Black Sea since the war started. Just more crimes against humanity and nature that need to be answered for. #russiaisateroriststate #UkraineWillWin @mfa_russia <--- you are still losing and are losers.
