#Russia would love you to think Ukraine is Nazi heaven

I'm being so brave right now about a podcast I used to like swallowing the Russian propaganda kool aid.

10/30/2023:. I, Trang, know without me as the female Buddha, there's definitely going to be a WWWIII because a war in humanity's most holy land (Jesus was born inPalestine and Israel-same land but in different name but yet to be recognized, and this is also where the Hamas claims their Mohammed died and went to heaven) in today's time with the animalistic Islamic terrorist groups like Hamas with true love for their Mohammed's land where Muhammad went to heaven with the backing of Iran getting fatter, and Afghanistan kicking America out after 20 something years of being occupied, along with old fat Russia's being the first area where the Jew hating words were started, along with fat China getting greedy, WHILE American soldiers are too fat to run, American soldiers and people are confused about their genders and cutting off their genitals and breasts and removing their reproductive system while their male children are kissing their male friends and their female children looks like dudes. I am not as worried about Putin and Ukraine for it's a fight between distant brothers and sister so the fight is less animalistic. However, seeing how the Hamas can shoot children and drag a naked decapitated female body like hungry lions dragging a deer in their mouths is NASTY. Furthermore, seeing how this is the first war I have learned where the civilians are cut off with water because they are held in a open-aired cage in an apartheid system where they can't even visit their grandparents (even apartheid system in South Africa allows people to see their grandparents) by the people (Israel government) who claim their are more humans while shooting to flatten everything in Gaza is darn right animalistic NASTY, too, for a group of humans would bomb Gaza a bit and stop to tell the animals "Hey, we want to be more humans in this war because we once suffered like animals under Nazi regime and they were out to create a genocide on our people. However, we have learned out lesson of that pain and although we want to satisfy our animal urges to bombs all of you Hamas for what you did, we understand that t by bombing Gaza I to pieces, that would also create a early genocide, and we Israel are really peaceful people after out Nazi genocide. Let's sit down and talk with the UN. Show the Hamas animals your side as humans Israelis and they too will change for I am sure Mohammed and Allah preaches 💕 and ✌️, too Trang's thinking at 50.5333 years, too. What is up with the black people's shootting each other at yesterday's Halloween night club? If I were young and horny, I wouldn't go out during this crazy mass gun violence and the Hamas and Israelis. Tame your horniest by exercising in your room by jumping around or else you might be the unlucky to be lying on the funeral bed.

No but why do people act like Ukrainians demanding Russia as a nation be held accountable is the exact same as wanting all Russians genocided?? Honestly if everytime an imperial power waged violent war was met with global boycotts, there might just be less of those wars because they can't get away with them.

So true bestie. It's not like anyone's asking to wipe them out of the face of Earth, I would be happy to see democratic Russia even though I have very little hope for that. But, like, you can't just politely ask them to not be imperialist, this is not how it works. We shouldn't give money to imperialist powers and authoritarian regimes, it's better to not have the most comfortable lives but to know you ain't sponsoring someone's death

And honestly, democracies going so weak on imperialist, like, no one boycotts China like they ain't hell on Earth with concentration camps

Like idk I saw Russians make tags like #RussiaLivesMatter and I'm like??? So you are the one getting murdered, I see. Might as well start posting #NotAllRussians for the full picture

How people can understand oppression stuctures between black people and white people or cis people and trans people but not between Russians and Ukrainians, it's really annoying.

Also, from a black man currently reporting from Ukraine:

The parallel is not perfect but please perceive it in a good faith because for the love of god it's really hard to explain to foreigners our way of thinking when half of them can't see an obvious Russian propaganda

Ukrainian approach is also very rooted in the idea that freedom and democracy is something you fight for and if you are not fighting then you don't actually care for it. Everything that Russians bring up about suppressing opposition happened in Ukraine too, like murder of journalists and activists (Gongadze, Handzyuk, attempted Sternenko), persecution of activists on fake charges (Riff, Sternenko etc), police brutality (stuff happened even this winter I think) and killing of protestors (107 people died during the Revolution of Dignity) so any time Russians use those as excuses to why they can't protest it feels like they are spitting in our faces. They appear weak-willed and not ready to sacrifice everything for their freedom. Like, during the Revolution of Dignity people literally wrote they are going "To the death", no one acted like uwu owo we are going on a walk, no, people seriously were ready to die because Yanukovych decided he wants to be a dictator and now Russians cry their eyes out explaining to us that they might be imprisoned for protesting. Like, of course??? Do you think Jesus will walk out of the sky and make your country heaven or what??? YOU work for it yourself

They don't take responsibility for their own country and now when sanctions hit them they blame everyone but themselves. It's never Russians who are at fault, no, it's the evil West or nazi Ukrainians or everyone who doesn't treat them like kings. Some people were privileged for so long they can't even grasp what is accountability and perceive any time they ain't paid special attention to as oppression (and this is why you need to double-check when Russians say they are being oppressed. Believe it or not, it's totally normal to doubt people, just don't be an asshole about that and try to dig deeper into all and any situations to understand all nuances)
