Can we talk about how CRAZY it is that the UN General secretary visited Russia? Start a brutal war against your neighbour and then escelate it eight years later! Commit ecoterrorism, threaten nuclear terrorism, and intentionally and actively target civilians! In fact, why not kidnap them AND their kids and "rehome" those kids with your own citizens and punish them for expressing their own culture while you're at it! Commit genocide- as a treat! These actions have minimal consequences and absolutely will not make you a pariah state!

[dontforgetukraine]

On 25 October, Russia attacked Kyiv with drones. As a result of the attack, a residential building was damaged and a fire broke out in one of the apartments. The living area from the 17th to the 21st floor was affected. 5 people were injured. A girl born in 2009 was killed. Every night, Russia launches attack drones to destroy Ukrainian cities and kills civilian people. #LetUkraineStrikeBack to stop this terror. —Ukraine.ua

Today the body of the only real opposition leader in my country was buried

After his death on February 16th

Exactly a month before the presidential “election”.

After three years in prison camps.

Thousands of people gathered before the funeral ceremony, leaving flowers and messages of gratitude

Thousands of people protested on the streets, stopped by the police from getting closer to the funeral

All stood together in his name,

chanting

“Heroes don’t die!”

“Stop the war!”

“Peace for Ukraine! Freedom for Russia!”

“You wasn’t afraid, we aren’t afraid.”

I was afraid

I am

But seeing the bravery of my people, openly protesting despite all the risks, despite their faces being caught on cameras, despite everything

Makes me hope

And makes me want to spread the word

It often feels just scary and hopeless

Because, what the protests are for? For the goverment to see, to fear, to reconsider their choices

But there has been so many protests

And the goverment

Does not care.

Never did.

And the people brainwashed by the official propaganda will only see and hear what they’re being shown and told on daily basis.

But to all the people who still know what’s black and white.

This today?

Was hope.

He was killed, but not broken.

Even in such tragedy there is light.

And on March 16th the official presidential elections will be held.

But everyone, every single person in this country knows they’re faked.

Have been for years. And years. Even before the constitution was rewritten to coronate one person forever.

It will be faked again.

But today?

Was the truth.

The truth that we aren’t broken.

Before all the power of the corrupted, heartless, hating, greedy and evil

There is good.

There is honesty, bravery, conscience, kindness, understanding

Humanity

And I just want the humanity to know.

I just want the world to see.

We might not have power to do much else.

But if there is good, kind and understanding outside.

Help.

Help the world.

The hate,

The corruption,

The wars must stop.

One day we must win.

A reality check on the war from Yale Prof. Timothy Snyder.

The bottom line...

"You can't stop the killing by giving up. The only way to stop the killing is to win the war. The only way to end the war is to win the war."

People who urge "compromise" like Elon Musk have probably not been paying attention to Eastern Europe for the past 300 years.

This is "Cat of Ukraine" which I created after the war broke out in 2022.

It is one of a series of 3 prints that I created to raise money for Ukraine: President Zelenskyy, Cat of Ukraine, and Dog of Ukraine. They each represent the badassery of the Ukrainian people.

Over a few months, I raised over $2000 for Ukraine. It saddens me that the war still continues...

Slava Ukraini!

Hey bbg ☺️

[diocletianscabbagefarm]

It is admittedly kinda funny (in a 'mask off' kind of way) that suddenly no one is advocating for freezing the Ukraine conflict at the current control/line of contact anymore now that a couple hundred square miles of Russian territory is contested.

There is no place for occupiers in Ukraine. Ukrainian victory is coming!

[malyen0retsev]

morning, russia is a fucking terrorist state which must be defeated, and anyone STILL asking that ukraine ‘negotiate’ with a nation which just destroyed the water supply for the next decade to a section of ukraine which russia has annexed in the name of ‘protection’ is out of their fucking minds

Just remembered a Ukrainian teenager who was killed 2 years ago by a russian missile while he was running to let his elderly neighbors know about an air raid. Killed for having compassion for his community. For being kind.
