These terrific people from @USUA_Activists have been demonstrating literally every day since the full-scale invasion began. It was an honor to team up with them this evening.

A note on the antisemitic laser projections that happened last night in Florida. The technology looks very familiar to me; to wit, I think it is the same tech I use for russian embassy projections. Specifically, I believe this is being done with a LaserCube made by @wickedlasers.
Vile as the message is, I doubt that the perpetrators are violating any laws. That said, for anyone looking for the perps, here is some info. The LaserCube can project well over extremely long distances. I did this projection over something like 200 meters, for example.
The flickering nature of the text suggests to me that we are dealing with a considerable distance in this case.
In the event that a quick evacuation is required from this website for any reason, you can follow me on Instagram—which I will have to learn how to use—here: IG @benjaminwittes
A piece of advice to all my friends in Western countries who think they are pro-peace or pro-diplomacy and whether from the Left or the Right presume to tell Ukrainians what is good for them: Please spend a few moments actually listening to Ukrainian voices. Real ones.
They are remarkably consistent on this subject. They are also the people whose lives and sovereignty and nationhood are on the line. Have enough humility to actually engage some Ukrainian voices before you bargain away Ukrainian lands or tell them what peace they must accept.
I promise you will find the experience eye-opening. Promise.
