It's Always 'ukraine Was Being Invaded', Not 'russian-ukrainian War'. Always. It Always Was, As If Russians

In my class we had a refugee from Ukraine whose native language was Russian for a few months (she then moved to a different city) and we have like 6 Russians in our class, but none of them ever talked to her even though they all spoke Russian fluently. It was obvious how much they hated her because she was from Ukraine.

Me and some others in our class tried helping her out a bit but it was not so easy because she only spoke very few English and German.

Gotta say I thought the people in our class would show more support, like even some of the Non-Russians, but with Russian friends, were bitter. The majority would speak to her (over an translator) one or two times and then just coexist. I and like three others were the only ones who were actually sometimes with her during school. (The Ukrainians in our school visited a German class during most of our classes, so that they didn’t have to just sit there and listen to someone teaching something in a language they didn’t understand.)

But, I was actually shocked about the fact that our Russians didn’t want to talk to her, because at I know that at least three or four of them aren’t Putin fans. I mean ignoring a classmate is definitely not the worst thing Russians do to Ukrainians outside of the war but I still think it’s important about the ignorance of some. Maybe not all Russians are Pro-Putin but the majority isn’t as Anti-Putin as they should be, either.

Brands you can boycott to help Georgia (the country) fight against the foreign agent law +what you need to know about it:

[Image ID: Three logos of different international chains depicted on a white background. On top the bands presented are Wendy's and Subway. On the bottom, it's Dunkin' Donuts. End ID.]

The foreign agent law (also locally referred to as "the Russian law". On February 2023, the ruling majority of the parliament registered a draft law, addressing a completely made-up problem of transparency of non-governmental organizations. The law refers to non-governmental organizations that receive funding from abroad as "foreign agents." In Georgian, "foreign agent" carries the same meaning as "spy." Back in 2023, we managed to fight back against the law that would completely destroy student exchange programs, charity work, LGBT and disability organizations, etc. The law would also allow the government to persecute you for something inconsequential, such as an anti-government post on social media. If the law passes, it would cause most of Georgia to be locked out of international relations and would demolish most of our scarce support systems.

Those are not all of the brands that support the Russian law here, however they are the international ones that through their owners in Georgia support the passing of the law.

Additionally, the government has paid people outside the regions to protest in support of passing of the law, and has threatened them with losses of their jobs and the jobs of their family members.

The protests have been going for many days endlessly, and policemen have been getting more and more brutal. Utilizing things such as water jets, armor, shields, flashlights, smoke, gas, etc.

Please stay with Georgia and support it against the country that has endlessly colonized, genocided, and raped us.

When the anti "LGBT propaganda" law passed in Russia, all of you were going insane and cared. Give Georgia the same energy. If you can have sympathy for our oppressors on the basis of them being queer, you should keep the same energy for us, if not more.

If this law passes, every Georgian queer person I know is so severely fucked, myself included. If you make jokes about "being illegal in several countries" you better fucking care about the countries you're apparently illegal in, or going to be illegal in.

Make sure to spread this around. This is important.

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 🌿🌌

Noor Harazeen you are the world's hero. You're completely correct, this is not normal. This is evil and no human needs to make these decisions.

And with that, the 2023 season comes to an end.

Good night!

It's always difficult for me to believe that time flies that fast. 2023 is already coming to an end, but it seems like only yesterday was the beginning of 2020 or any other previous year. Thank you, the defenders of Ukraine. For everything.

Happy New Year! Slava Ukraini!🇺🇦

Мені завжди важко повірити, наскільки ж швидко лине час. Ось уже закінчується 2023, а, здавалося, іще тільки вчора був початок 2020 чи будь-якого іншого колишнього року. Дякую захисникам і захисницям України. За все.

Щасливого Нового року! Слава Україні!🇺🇦
