"Ukraine Is Getting Too Much Attention" "it's Not That Bad Suck It Up" "but What About [insert Country]"

🇬🇪 The police are brutally cracking down protesters in Georgia (Sakartvelo). Georgians are protesting the draft of foreign agents bill (so called "russian law"), which would put their democracy at risk. In general, protests are also anti-government and against russian influence on their country. International news barely covers protests in Georgia, which allows police and government to act like this even more freely and without consequences.

Our posts about Kakhovka dam being destroyed thus causing a massive ecological destruction and immeasurable human loss had far less notes than Spotify post about how Spotify wrapped came out on the wrong day.

INKTOBER

Day 19: Ridge. Qırım, the Valley of Ghosts.

russia is still committing war crimes every day. and you still tolerate it. wake up.

Ходити до старого лісу вночі не найкраща ідея. Більшість його мешканців буде не проти поласувати вами. А такі очі самі манять в свої смертельні обійми 🌿🌌

Fucking hell

A grieving mother saying goodbye to her daughter Zlata (4 y.o), who died from injuries following the Russian missile attack on Odesa. The parents asked everyone to be dressed in white because Zlata was an angel… RIP, dear angel

This young artist did the same things i do - create art, share it with the world

But still russia decided that it's okay to kill people. And still westerns on the internet tolerate russians and their art, because "it's just art" or "what can they do about their government?"

Actually, they can do a lot. But what can a person do when a missile strikes exactly at them?

I hate hypocrisy of western world. Genocide is genocide and the only thing you CAN DO is support the victims - trust the victims!!!!!

So try to listen once in your goddamn life to people who really saw what russia did. To people who see it every day. Listen, learn AND BAN RUSSIA and their art

"why don't we hate israelis as much as we hated russians when they invaded ukraine" - first of all, who is "we". It was (primarily) Eastern Europeans who carried the russophobia on their backs, I'm not letting you appropriate their contribution. And second of all, when were you stabbing russian immigrants abroad for the sin of being russian and vandalising their neighbourhoods with swasticas? Because all I remember is russian men harrassing & beating up ukrainian refugee women and children, and setting their houses on fire, while westerners were observing this with "omg brotherly nation forced into war by politicians. make peace not war #deep"

Interim Note

Hi everyone,

Thank you very much for your support. The whole family is heartwarmed over your kindness. We're still piecing together what happened and the next steps, but of course dealing with multiple governments and also OPSEC are complicating the matter. There's already misinformation about her circulating in the news cycles, so be very skeptical about what you read, even if it's a reputable publication. Russia's propaganda machine is very well-oiled at the moment.

Once we've got solid, sharable information, I'll post it here for you. That may take up to a week or possibly even longer, though. We've been warned through many channels that the Russian trolls keep watch for unguarded family statements.

That's not to say that her story won't be told! I intend for EVERYONE to know what a special, amazing person she was. I knew this from the moment I met her - it's why I married her.

Russia (Muscovy) is an evil imperialist nation, and this is largely unchanged since Catherine the Great. I rarely (if ever) use the word "evil", but it really is the correct usage in this case. I've been keeping a close watch on geopolitics over the past two years, and for the first time I'm hopeful as I observe Europe beginning to awaken, Japan and allies quietly preparing in the East, and America's backbone returning (despite the current socio-political instability and their awkward partnerships).

We will defeat this evil. We've done it before in Germany and Japan and Italy. Totalitarianism is doomed to lose.

Слава Україні. Слава вільному світу.
