This is seriously a new level of being a douchebag.

- You directly undermine Ukraine's defense effort by turning Starlinks off for the Ukrainian military right in the middle of important operations and letting the Russian military use it despite U.S. sanctions

- You spread the most idiotic "nuclear war" takes whispered to you in the ear by the Russian ambassador in the U.S. and even Putin himself

- You give voice and listen to the most insane conspiracy theorists talking about "proxy war", "biolabs", "deep state", and "money laundering", as well as blowhard demagogues and media con artists openly praising Putin and his regime

- You use your multimillion-stong global audience to directly propagate the Ukrainian surrender to Russia's war of aggression and publicly ridicule Ukraine's calls for international defense aid in its war against one of the world's largest military powers

- You directly undermined U.S. aid to Ukraine and publicly called for "killing" a long-belated aid at the U.S. Congress despite Ukraine running critically low on air defense and munitions because you and your arrogant yes-men had decided that "Putin just can't lose"

And when the situation deteriorates, particularly due to months-long delays in the most essential and urgent defense aid, this shameless douche says "I did predict it" (while again completely ignoring the fact that POLITICO makes it perfectly clear that Ukraine is 'heading for defeat' due to the West's failure to send weapons to Kyiv).

No, Elmo, you did not 'predict' anything.

You precipitated this.

This war started with Ukrainians praising you as the free world's techno hero and naming streets after you.

Now you have degraded yourself to being one of Russia's key useful idiots amid the most terrible and the largest European war of aggression since Adolf Hitler.

Keep listening to the likes of Ian Miles Cheong and David Sacks and dive deeper into your delusions and absolute moral bankruptcy.

We in Ukriane have seen our share of smartasses giving us between 48 and 72 hours two years ago.

In this war, we've been through so many impossible things that you can't even imagine, let alone "predict".

We will overcome this too -- and will get the aid, will survive as an independent nation and a democracy, and will bring peace back to Europe by derailing Russian aggression.

This is from this morning, 17.04.2024, in Chernihiv, one of the regional capitals in the North of Ukraine.

Russians attacked the city centre. Many dead and wounded.

But here I want to take time to address a different thing. Watch with sound.

The video captured several passersby, including a young soldier on leave.

Notice how the sound of the second missile flying could be clearly heard several seconds before the strike.

Notice how the soldier reacted at once as soon as he heard it and notice how civilians... didn't until the missile hit.

So, I want to stress again: PEOPLE WATCH THAT SOLDIER AND WHEN YOU HEAR MISSILES FLYING FUCKING ACT LIKE HIM. DO NOT FUCKING WAIT TO SEE WHERE THE FUCKING MISSILE LANDS. DO NOT SQUAT OR FALL TO YOUR KNEES. FACEPLANT ON THE GROUND THE SECOND YOU HEAR THE WHISTLING AND LIE THERE DAMMIT.

Two years of war and we still have to have these talks🙄

The Morning after...

Meanwhile, the war in Ukraine hasn't vanished. Once again we spent last night in the corridor, away from the windows and the shattering glass. The historic centre of Odesa, where I live, is covered with scars that are getting bigger and bigger. The Odesa National Fine Arts Museum, a cosy art gallery, which turns 124 years old today, was attacked by russian missiles and shaheds. There is pain and wrath instead of celebration. And the best antidepressant for me - a walk in the park on a sunny November day.

Hello.

I want to remind you that the full-scale war has been going on for a year. last year, my small town was one of the first to wake up to russia's attack: our radar station was destroyed. a whole year has passed. many people are gone. many cities and villages were wiped off the face of the earth. many animals, birds, plants, forests, fields, our entire ecosystem has been affected. seas, rivers, russia polluted everything. please, do not forget about Ukraine and remember that russia brings death, suffering and pain. people keep dying. every week my small town meets processions of fallen soldiers. and so throughout Ukraine. it hurts a lot. it's not fair. This is scary. 

Thank you for staying with me.

this is how we see off our heroes on their last journey

Please reblog for a bigger sample size!

If you have any fun fact about Ukraine, please tell us and I'll reblog it!

Edit: Odesa* with only one S. And Chornobyl is spelled with an O. Can't edit the poll itself anymore.

I'm alive for two years of this war now, thanks to Armed Forces of Ukraine. Thanks to everyone who joined, helped, and supported my country. I know we will win, but there's a lot of weird and terrifying sh*t ahead. Who knows, I may not get through it alive at the end, but if I will... Damn. That would be awesome.

Тримаймося, мої любі котики. Знаєте, мені якось ще в 2014 наснився сон про те, як війна скінчилася. Як ми всі поверталися додому. Ми були дітьми, що воювали проти велетня. Але ми перемогли. А велетеня розчленували. Лишилася тільки голова, яка мала страждати 100 років. Дивний то був сон. Та тепер я знаю про що він.
