when i say i’m from ukraine, people assume i live somewhere else now. when i say i live in ukraine, they assume i’m somehow immune to war, and there’s a logical division between a ukrainian they chat with on discord and a ukrainian on the news. bitches my yaoi is written from the bomb shelter

should i go on?
Putin is not the cause of russian brutality, terrorism and bloodthirstiness. Putin is a consequence.
before Putin, there were other presidents, other tsars and other authorities in russia. only one thing has not changed — russian imperialism and chauvinism.
don't be silent and please continue to support Ukraine! don't let your politicians betray Ukraine, Ukraine needs help to defeat russia!

"russia just invaded ukraine vs israel committing a genocide in palestine”
yeah just invaded.
yeah it a fair war of two relatively the same military powers.
yeah one side never said that the other never existed and shouldn’t exist now.
yeah one side is not targeting civilian infrastructure en masse.
yeah it’s just a conflict and not a continuation of a hundred-year conquest of an imperial power to destroy a nation.
it’s not like one side has killed at least 10 million people in the space of the last century while specifically targeting this nation in particular.
it’s great that you all read about palestinian history - this is a right thing to do and one of the ways to decolonise your own knowledge- but maybe pick up a timothy snyder or serhiy plokhy book and read when russians started killing ukrainians. you would be surprised that it didn’t start either in 2022 or 2014, its been going on FOR CENTURIES.
wording matters. check whether your country recognises holodomor as a genocide. if yes, read about it. if not, read about it as well.
and then check what constitutes a genocide and how both of this tragedies are genocides: of ukrainian people by russia and of palestinian people by israel.
The girls singing in this video were killed in a missile attack on Zaporizhzhia an hour after the performance 💔
Svitlana Semeikina and Kristina Spitsyna were performing to raise funds for the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Their parents are now also defending Ukraine in the Zaporizhzhia sector.
The girls were only 19 and 21 years old. On August 9, they were killed by a Russian missile.
