"Ordinary Russia is sick. Healing will be a long and gruelling process which can only start when Russia, not just Putin, is defeated. Without a defeat in Ukraine, Russia will just keep spreading."

an "ordinary russian" man : "I want to catch a 16-year-old khokhlushka (slur for a ukrainian woman) whose father died near Bakhmut, take off her underwear and tights, leave her only with a t-shirt with the inscription “Everything will be Ukraine”and roar to deflower her, kissing her tears and looking at her into the eyes where the pupils dilate to the size of Mother Russia."

these are the people you like to infantilise and justify so much btw

This is your friendly reminder to spread awareness and celebrate Ukrainian culture, art, and artists.

Russia has damaged and destroyed 432 cultural sites, and has a very long history of stealing and destroying original Ukrainian works of art. Not to mention their desire to destroy everything Ukrainian. Even supporting Ukraine is enough to be jailed or straight up murdered.

This did not start in 2022. Russia is a terrorist state, has always been a terrorist state, and they have always hated anyone who doesn’t worship them.

And a side note: When a population is enduring a genocide, celebrating the culture and heritage of the people committing the genocide is an interesting choice. You don’t get to tell Ukrainians “not all Russians, not all Russian civilians” when the majority of the population supports the war. Ukrainians are allowed to be upset with the people supporting the country that’s killing them. Don’t tell us how we should feel about our history (and present) being erased.

Look at russia's commitment to peace!

Thank you, orange man, for ending russian aggression through appeasement.

hot take apparently, but woman isn't a feeling. if you like things that are stereotypically feminine that doesn't make you a woman. just like if you don't like things that are stereotypically feminine, that doesn't make you less of a woman. reducing being a woman to a feeling instead of biology is taking away womanhood and putting it in the hands of men to decide what defines it

Ukraine Donation Guide Master Post

Multi-Purpose

United 24 has various fundraisers dedicated to defense and drones, medical aid, rebuilding Ukraine, humanitarian demining, and science and education. You can pick which one you want to contribute to under their various projects.

Liberty Ukraine uses funds for humanitarian aid, medical supplies, protective gear and equipment, and rehabilitation therapy. You can choose which campaign of theirs to donate to.

Come Back Alive is a charitable foundation that supports Ukraine's military with competent assistance while also focusing on security and defense. They also have projects that use sports to help veterans rehabilitate. You can choose which campaign to donate to.

Serhiy Prytula Charity Foundation works to help both civilians and Ukraine's army. You can choose to donate to an active project or any of their general campaigns. Civilian aid campaigns cover temporary housing, supporting crisis and emergency responses, schools, demining, and healthcare. Military aid campaigns cover drones, optics units, communications equipment, and support of air defense teams.

Food Aid

World Central Kitchen works with local partners wherever they are providing food aid. They make sure meals and meal kits are what the local population eats. Even though there is no separate fundraising campaign for Ukraine (that I can see), they still do great work.

Animal Rescue

Hachiko Foundation works to help displaced pets and strays in frontline areas. They help with veterinary care, outdoor shelters, setting up feeding stations, and rehoming animals..

If you're on twitter, there are a number of groups and people that fundraise for Ukraine and for specific units fighting on the frontlines.
