[crazysodomite]

its insane how you literally can't talk about the oppression caucasians face (what was the last time you read about the genocide or imperialist aggression caucasian people went through? actually?) without an american/westerner piping up with "umm... lol... you think White people are oppressed? lol"

Isn't it crazy how people use caucasian to make fun of white people while literally Completely erasing the struggles of a racialized group? Isn't it crazy how no one cares and people keep doing it without batting an eye? And isn't it crazy when you try to look up something about caucasians you get stupid ass articles about "are white people opressed or not? are white people entitled? are white people this or that?"

lüralla/fury

29 years ago the first Russian-Chechen war began. after 29 years in the war with the Russian occupiers, I am now the granddaughter of deportees, the daughter of a father who was tortured by the Russian occupiers and a sister of a brother who died in the battles for the independence of Ichkeria.

lazar/pain

Russia had brought immense pain to Chechnya and after being left unpunished - brought it to Ukraine too.

a Chechen boy after seeing Russian terrorist attack on Vinnytsia and little girl Liza said: I was killed in 2000 by a bomb and I have been leaving in a hell ever since.

xag/hatred

a soldier from the Sheikh Mansur battalion teaches me, a civilian women: we don't speak with the occupiers, we kill them.

remember the ruins of Grozny, kill the occupiers.

diccadalar/memory

grandmother, the “child of lentils”, who survived deportation, two wars and died under the Russian occupation, had forgotten everything in the last two years of her life—everything at all. all the pain and all the horror that Russia brought into her life. but memory in today’s world is also resistance.

beqam/retribution

there will be retribution. retribution to everyone who came to kill to the land of Ichkeria and to the land of Ukraine.

but I hope that I will be the last generation of my family who has to fight with the Russian world. The rashist terrorist federation must die.

düẋalo/resistance

today three generations of Chechens are fighting for Ukraine and Chechnya - those who fought in the first Russian-Chechen war, those who fought in the second one and children for whom this war became the first in their life.

on the picture taken somewhere in the 1990s is the battalion commander of the Sheikh Mansur battalion, Muslim Cheberloevsky.
