This thread about People of Truth, people who felt their responsibility to tell the truth and could not be silent. People who risked their careers, freedom or even life doing everything to preserve and spread the truth about the Holodomor. #HolodomorWasAGenocide
1/ I’m sick and tired of people who came to Ukraine during the war pretending they’re “helping.” In reality, they’re not. The war gave birth to a whole breed of opportunists - bloggers, influencers, “journalists” - whose only mission is fame and money.
2/ They don’t raise funds for drones, cars, medical kits, or anything defenders actually need. They don’t organize fundraisers. They don’t help volunteers. Instead, they ask their audience to fund their “very important work” in Ukraine.
3/ While Ukrainian volunteers, moms, and soldiers’ wives break their backs to collect every single dollar, these opportunists build brands on our tragedy. They exploit pain, fear, and stereotypes to grow their platforms.
1/ After 3.5 years of full scale war, I know who’s real and who’s just here for the vibes. Who fundraises. Who delivers. Who risks. And who clings to the war for attention, validation, or Twitter fame.
2/ If you come after someone who’s actually helping Ukraine, because your little Twitter fave got their feelings hurt , I don’t care who you are or what flag is in your bio. You’re not on our side.
3/ I see the ones who hide in chats, spread shit, and attack behind the scenes, all because someone dared to criticize your online idol. You’re not here to help Ukraine. You’re here to feed your ego.
1/ Iryna Danilovych is being tortured in a russian prison.
Her crime? Being a nurse, a journalist, and telling the truth in occupied Crimea.
Now she’s rotting in Colony No. 7, Zelenokumsk. 🧵
2/ She can’t sleep, bright lights are on 24/7.
Machines blast noise for hours.
She has a severe ear infection, constant pain, risk of brain inflammation.
No treatment. No care.
This is deliberate. This is torture.
3/ She’s forced to stand for hours in cold and rain.
She’s in hell.
Iryna appealed through her family to the VP of the European Parliament to act.
To make this public.
To pressure russia to stop torturing women.
“I ask everyone who cares to express their position,” she wrote.
🧵They returned him home broken. Not by age or illness, but by russian torture.
Valeriy Zelenskyy survived 39 months in russian captivity.
He was strong enough to make it home.
But not strong enough to survive what they did to him. ⬇️
1/ Valeriy was no stranger to service.
A karate practitioner. A police officer. A businessman.
And when russia launched its full-scale war, he joined the 53rd Mechanized Brigade to defend Ukraine.
He became the face of recruitment posters.
Handsome. Stoic. Brave.
A protector.
2/ He was on a mission to bring aid to Mariupol.
He was told, "It's safe. Our people are there."
They spoke russian. Everything seemed fine.
It was a trap.
1/ Let’s talk about religion in Ukraine, because people like @RepLuna either don’t know or don’t care to tell you the truth. 🧵
Ukraine isn’t a religious monolith. Zelenskyy did NOT “ban the Orthodox Church.” Let’s break it down.
2/ There’s no such thing as “the Orthodox Church.”
What was banned in Ukraine is the Russian Orthodox Church, we call it FSB church, the one actively working for the Kremlin.
Other churches? They’re alive and well. Thriving.
3/Ukraine has religious diversity:
✅ Orthodox Church of Ukraine (independent from Moscow)
✅ Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church
✅ Roman Catholic Church
✅ Protestants
✅ Muslims (especially Crimean Tatars)
✅ Jewish communities
✅ Others
What really happened in Olenivka?
The world moved on. The UN stayed silent.
But a new report just uncovered the truth russia desperately tried to bury.
This was no accident. It was a calculated massacre.
🧵Let’s break it down:
1/ On July 28, 2022, a brutal attack on Ukrainian POWs in barracks 200 of the Olenivka prison shocked the world. russia blamed Ukraine. But the truth? It’s far more sinister.
A new independent CHRAC report dismantles russia’s lies. Using open-source data, survivor testimonies, satellite imagery, and ballistics, the report proves it was a russians.
2/ russia staged this massacre using thermobaric artillery shells fired from russian-controlled territory. They used their own weapons to murder POWs and tried to pin it on Ukraine.
The investigators identified the exact weapon: the russian-made thermobaric shell fired from a Nona system. These are only in russian arsenals.
