The add includes the line “Let’s clean ourselves of compulsory Ukrainian Nazism” (not my translation) and links having a Ukrainian name to nazism. And yet people are still debating on Ruzzia’s intent for this war and what they mean by “denazification” (hint: it has nothing to do with nazis)
Holodomor Museum keeps the memory of innocent Ukrainians killed with the man-made famine (known as Holodomor, the Great Famine of 1932-1933) organized by the soviet government. The number of the dead in the genocide varies from 4,5 to 10 million people, according to different researchers.
My late grandma remembered this horror for all her life. She was 8 that time. Her smaller sisters and brothers, 4 kids in our family, died from hunger in Holodomor. I remember that my grandma kept the packages full of dry bread in the nightstand till her last day.
90 years passed. The terrorist state of russia continues to commit its awful crimes, blackmailing the whole world with famine. Slogans like "Never again" are not working. They never did.
not a story, but a history to tell your grandchildren.

Criminals will be punished for their crimes
Sooner or later…
the antiqueer laws in Russia are bad and I do not blame those Russians for having fears about it, and as usual the relationship between a government and it’s civilians are complicated, especially for civilians who are marginalized by said government. It’s not as simple as “no agency and responsibility” nor “completely equal to and responsible for everything the government does” and fundamentally, everyone deserves safety and their human rights to be respected.
That being said, it’s hard to not feel frustrated when people are perfectly willing to acknowledge Russian queers as victims but other Central and Eastern European countries are treated as being like a blackhole of queerphobia that erases the lgbtq community in them. It’s like when Russia is oppressive, the lgbtq community deserves recognition and those in the less homophobic and transphobic countries should be grateful. But when those same countries *are* being queerphobic, then they should be destroyed and the lgbtq people there are treated like a hypothetical. And it’s especially frustrating when people say we can’t aid Ukraine in protecting its civilians from bombs because thebadthings™️, but we can support Russians in spite of their government being one of the largest imperialistic forces in the world right now.
I can’t really blame the Ukrainians who’ve been getting bombed for nearly two years now, and have been at war for nearly a decade with Russia, and who have been dismissed and shat on by the same Russians who are begging for aid now, for being at least a little begrudging about it. Especially when many westerners didn’t give a shit about queer Ukrainians and didn’t want aid sent there because they saw Ukraine as an inherently anti-lgbtq nation.
Dear subscribers and followers of my blog. Please share this tweet. And everywhere you can.
Today russians are killing us and destroying our cities, but tomorrow, if we don't stop them, they will come to you. Today you may not believe in it, but when you see it with your own eyes, it will be too late.
Thank you to everyone who cares, who is doing everything to help us fight this global evil.
