Dear Tommy, @SenTuberville , your point is fact! Absolutely! Let me show you proof that Russia is 'open to a peace agreement' with #Ukraine. Follow this very comprehensive thread below for absolute confirmation that Russia wants a peace agreement.
PS, you misspelled 'genocide'. It's not spelled 'conflict'.
Hi! So, yes, on my other account (tetyanaukrainka) I subscribe to Premium (ugh, I know) so that I can upload longer text/videos about #Ukraine- but they won't let me do it on my original account here for the next month, so this will be a thread.

Language matters. Spelling matters. Would you like it if your name was Jessica and someone decided to spell it Djessika? Or you named your kid Thomas and someone spelled it Tahmus. Would you feel a bit disrespected?
Would you hate it if people kept spelling it that way even though you asked them not to? Oh, you would. Interesting. Well, imagine #Ukraine having to deal with that sh*t for generations. Cultural genocide is the deliberate and systematic destruction of a culture and a language.
For those of you who need a quick explainer about why supporting Navalny is problematic, and why many Ukrainians are pissed about the west using Navalny as a way to showcase "rxssian opposition/good rxssians who are against war" here you go. A thread by ukrainer-eng (IG).
I'm a Ukrainian author & translator, so I want to address something (from my perspective) about allyship and the Ukrainian language because I find this topic fascinating. FYI, I am *not* speaking for Ukrainians in Ukraine, I am speaking from my perspective,
as a first-generation US-born Ukrainian, born to immigrants, where my first language as a child was exclusively Ukrainian (and a language which I still speak, fluently). You do not have to agree with me, just sharing what I think. A thread.
So, language has nothing to do with bloodline, patriotism, or nationality. If that were the case, I'd also be Italian, Russian, Spanish, and French- because I speak all those languages too.
