it’s been said before, but the level of perfection expected of Ukraine in order to deserve support is insane. Ukraine is expected not to have any societal flaws, even flaws that exist in western countries that have not experienced even half of the shit Ukrainians have. The amount of times I’ve seen people say aid to Ukraine should be cut off because there’s refugees abroad because if not literally every Ukrainian is fighting then genocide is deserved somehow, as though there’s ever been a war where people didn’t often choose to flee. Meanwhile ruzzia is effectively committing multiple genocides at once, has been committing human rights abuses and war crimes like its a checklist, and if you so much as say “I’m not really interested in dostoyevsky” you get called a russophobe

for the record, every dead Ukrainian, every act of genocide by Russia, every home destroyed, every inch of soil lost, will be a stain on the US, and I hope no one forgets how the US repeatedly failed to back up the Budapest memorandum, and whatever happens under Trump

when i say i’m from ukraine, people assume i live somewhere else now. when i say i live in ukraine, they assume i’m somehow immune to war, and there’s a logical division between a ukrainian they chat with on discord and a ukrainian on the news. bitches my yaoi is written from the bomb shelter

A reminder: do not ask Ukrainians for forgiveness, or grace, or any other kind of emotional work for you right now.

Ukrainians are being bombed, facing genocide, and actively betrayed after over a decade of disappointing alliances with the west. Even the safest Ukrainians must worry about their loved ones, their homes, and the future of their country. The last thing they need is to coddle others who treat voting every four years as the only political tool they have (with some of you not even being able to do that much)

Donate to Ukraine, call your representatives, ask local Ukrainian orgs what you can do, show up to rallies and protests. Those are actual meaningful and realistic actions you can take. Going onto social media and pleading for forgiveness like the “good” russians did three years ago doesn’t do anything for a nation who has been so grossly betrayed
