#russia is the occupier

!!!!!!! ‼️‼️‼️

If hearing Trump say that Ukraine started the war with Russia infuriates you – donate to help Ukraine persevere. If you're a USA citizen and you're upset and ashamed of your current government – take part in protests, educate those around you when you can, and donate to help Ukraine persevere. If you know at least a little about history, and you see that the current processes in the world lead to WW3 – donate to help Ukraine persevere, save democracy, and show dictators around the world that they can't take everything they want by power.

Write to your representatives, engage in protests, share whatever you can, or encourage others to do so. This war is so much more than you can imagine. It's the start of something that has the potential to affect everyone, no matter where you are or what you believe in. The world is a dangerous place, and it needs every one of us to do what we can to make it safer. Don't just think good - do good, in whichever small way you can.

the only peaceful solution is when the victim receives an apology that they’re not obliged to accept and receives full compensation and reparations and never sees you on their territory again, everything else is not a peaceful solution but хуйня + іді нахуй

You know, my faculty was basically Ukrainian language and literature. I have bachelor's degree.

I didn't had future vision back in 2020 when I was choosing my uni. And now I'm fucking target too. My mother is a teacher and russians are seeing teachers as tools for russification of children which is common practice on occupied territories. So yeah...

sometimes i think about how i’ve effectively dug myself a grave with this blog. half my internet presence is about being queer and ukrainian, famously two things russia hates the most.

if trump proceeds with the “peaceful negotiations” that happen without ukraine even present, if he pushes to implement another leader in ukraine (meaning, of course, a pro-russian puppet) and makes my country a quote unquote neutral territory, it obviously means occupation. when there are bombs over my head, i’m at least an abstract target, i can rely on luck not to get hit. if russians come to power tho? i’m toast.

i wish i was exaggerating, but this is already happening to people in occupied parts of the country. those who had social media posts in ukrainian, about queer rights, etc. are being seeked out and threatened. my acquaintance was once on call with her friend on crimea, who had weird noises in the background. when questioned, she casually said that they were coming from russian police beating her neighbour for listening to ukrainian music.

i constantly hear from people who miraculously left the occupied territories how they had to delete everything from their phones, because russian soldiers would do random phone searches — both just on the street or when a person tries to leave the occupied city. it’s not uncommon that people get shot over it.

everything about “peaceful negotiations” and “compromises”, trading “land for a peace agreement” promises me a death sentence

Project Nedopysani confirmed at least 194 literature figures killed by Russia during war.

This list will continue to grow. Russia commits genocide, both physical and cultural, every day. This is why you likely didn't know much about Ukraine until 2022: Russia tried and continues to wipe out our culture from existence.

Please, support Ukrainian artists and spread awareness about Russia's war crimes.

My two years today

Two years ago I was in Ukraine with my family. We will never gather at the same table as before. I have no opportunity to come home, my grandmother died, several acquaintances are missing, my cat also died without veterinary care. The city is empty, my younger sister goes to school under occupation, where she is forced to draw thank you cards for russian soldiers and the teachers mock her for her Ukrainian accent. She constantly cries and asks me to pick her up, but I don’t know what to say. My mother had a stroke, but she was not admitted to the hospital during the occupation because she did not have a Russian passport, and they did not manage to help her in time. Parts of her brain are permanently disabled, and she barely recognizes me or moves. I'm glad she's alive, but I no longer have support in my mother, this happened too soon.

Abroad, I was once attacked by russian emigrants in Lithuania. They saw my passport when I was buying tickets, and then they followed me and started pushing me and calling me a Nazi. A taxi driver helped me and took me away from there. The last time I was in Ukraine, a rocket fell near the house where I was visiting. Neither I nor anyone in the house was surprised or frightened, it was just the deep despair of millions of people from hopelessness.

I don’t remember well half a year during the occupation, but I remember how we made a fire to cook food, that there was no water, buses with loudspeakers drove through the streets, calling for surrender. How they came and took our medicines from our houses. How we went to rallies and had grenades thrown at us. I saw two huge piles rising above the ground - with the remains of cars and, apparently, with the remains of bodies and everything else. This picture is very unclear, I almost threw up, and after a couple of minutes a russian military man came up to me and asked if I loved russia. I answered "yes". What else could I say?

Now I am undergoing treatment from a psychiatrist and am trying to work to donate to those in need. Every day there are only more and more and more of them... those who have lost their home, limbs or loved ones. It pains me to see requests for help with funerals.

I feel nothing today except emptiness

the Ukrainian documentary "20 days in Mariupol" was nominated for an Oscar in the "Best Documentary" category.

the film tells the story of a journalist who was trapped in Mariupol for 20 days. all these filmed horrors and pain caused by russia are, unfortunately, only a small part of all the tragedies and acts of genocide that have been happening in Ukraine for ten years.

I encourage you to watch this film and tell others about it, share it and bring attention to this story. this documentary deserves this award and worldwide recognition!

russia is holding 403 Ukrainian women captive, including many civilians.

There are women whose fate is unknown since 2014. Ukraine constantly appeals to the occupiers with the demand to return captive women, but russia ignores all appeals.

Today, russian terrorists launched a missile attack on a residential building in Poltava.

There are already three dead, and we also know about 12 victims, among them children.

a reminder that yall literally listen and promote russian music like mua mua jaga jaga and other on all platforms ever known. none of you boycotted any of russian companies/artists at least since feb24 2022, because what? because you don't care. you never did. but when you need to boycott kpop for five, god, FIVE days you're literally right there. i haven't listened to any of russian music since spring 2022 and im perfectly fine without my fav russian artists. why can't you do the same?

This is my homecity, Kyiv, on the 2nd of January after russia attacked Ukraine with Shahed drones, 16 Tu-95MC bombers, "Kinzhal" and "Kaliber" missiles during the night.

(Overall russia launched 99 missiles of various types and 35 attack drones over Ukraine during the night and morning).

As for now, 49 people are injured, 43 out of them were hospitalized. 2 people died.

I cannot express the pain I feel seeing the beautiful and strong city where I was raised being so viciously destroyed in the front of the whole world. And I certainly cannot imagine the pain of those, who suffered during the attack today and who lost their loved ones, one of them being Lyudmyla Shevtsova, doctor of biological sciences, professor, teacher of the Kyiv-Mohyla Academy.

DON'T LOOK AWAY.

DON'T FORGET THE FACE OF THE TERROR.

SUPPORT ARMING UKRAINE SO WE CAN DEFEND OURSELVES, OUR LIVES, OUR CULTURE FROM BEING DESTROYED.

Sometimes I really want to go home, but it is impossible as long as there is war there. Unfortunately, I won't see some of my friends there, I won't show it to others who died. And because of this, I am very angry with russia

[syndromealice-blog]

The Russians prepared everything to blow up the Zaporizhia Nuclear Plant. Four of six power units. I just want this page not to be forgotten. If after the explosion I will not be in touch for more than a week - please just remember who did it. Do not forget who killed me and more millions of people. Do not forget who has been committing the genocide of the Ukrainian people for centuries.

Yesterday, while I was posting my Shirt Recolor, russians hit civil multi-apartment building with guided missile in my city. With. Guided. Missile. 5 civil people dead, dozens are wounded (including 10 children), some of them very heavily wounded. This it the type of news I'm getting every day. russia deliberately chooses to kill civil citizens. This wasn't done by mistake or coincidence. This is the genocide of Ukrainians happening right now, online. And, at the same time, Disney Channel chooses to cut off 20 Days in Mariupol from short Oscar version because they didn't have time... They didn't have time on such important message to the world. Do Ukrainians have time? It's a rhetoric question. But one thing I know for sure - Ukrainians certainly don't have time for Disney's bullshit.
