“Since Russia’s soldiers first stormed 🇺🇦, women have been gang-raped, men castrated, children sexually abused, & civilians forced to parade naked in the streets, according to the UN.” #ThisIsRussia #RussianCulture

And anyone wants to attribute this to a few bad apples… Image
Also, this isn’t a “recent development” either. Here are the findings from an independent UN review back in September of 2022

Attempting genocide is central to russia’s imperial identity. Be it the russian empire, USSR, or the Rashist Federation, they just can’t help it.

Every time russia reaches rock-bottom of decency, morality, or just basic humanity; it finds a way to break through…

As Ambassador @MelSimmonsFCDO tweeted, what russia does isn’t surprising, it is shocking! It must not go on. Russia will not stop, unless & until it is stopped

The Economist asks and answers the big question 🙋🏻‍♂️ and by doing so, it squashes the already weak arguments of putin-sponsored pacifists and the western fiscal-conservatives-minted-in-the-kremlin economist.com/leaders/2023/0… via @TheEconomist 1/5
“As the war enters its second year, some ask whether Ukraine is worth all this effort. Isn’t the cost-of-living crisis more urgent? Or climate change? Imagine if the money spent on weapons could finance development instead.” 2/5
“It is right to regret the war, but unwise simply to wish away Mr Putin’s aggression. A Russian victory in Ukraine would frog-march the world down a bleak path where might is right and frontiers are drawn by violence.” 3/5

Russia/putin did this to a 19-year-old Ukrainian. Russia/putin did this to Ruslana, who volunteered to defend her country. Russia/putin did this to countless thousands of innocent victims. Russia/putin will not stop, until they’re stopped.

🔴 Why did #russia launch a full-scale invasion last year?
🔵 Whether you're pro-russian, anti-russian, or Elon Musk [who just can't decide], Feb 24th doesn't make any sense
🔵 So, here is a short thread 🧵to explore the 3 most compelling explanations I've heard
1/5
1️⃣ Kool-Aid drinking party in the bunker
As @TarasKuzio explained in his piece for @ACEurasia
"It would appear that Putin simply fell victim to his own propaganda."
atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/ukrainea…
2/5
2️⃣ regime preservation: a plan to conduct a quick & victorious war [repeating "Crimea success"] & thus accrue sufficient legitimacy for the putin-kleptocracy to run/pillage russia for decades to come

As @RG_Horvath argued here
