The whole Ukrainian Twitter is triggered by this woman…
Both are Ukrainian born… Ukrs will fight to the bitter end, basically until the breakdown of the Ukrainian army. How long will this take, and what will remain of Ukraine at the end is a question. Get yourself some snacks and watch this space!
I have some information about the killed Odessa Neonazi, Demyan Hanul…
Ukr Nazis said he was assassinated by the Russians. This is a mother fucking projection. Russians don’t do these kinds of assassination, Ukrainians do. They killed Motorola, Givi, Zakharchenko, Dugina, Kiva, Vladen, Zhuravko. They do it for hype. To hype their own, and their supporters in the West. Russia is not so interest in wasting time and resources on hype that is not going to get amplified.
Others have speculated that Hanul was killed by a parent of some mobilized schmuck. But it turns out the situation is much more banal.
Briefly about Hanul and enacting judgement. Lieutenant Shapaev was sent by his commander to pick up a jeep from Hanul. Hanul collected the dough from stupid Ukr-donors but didn’t deliver the car.
Shapaev was simply taken to the woods and beaten, you can see black eye done by Hanul personally.
Lieutenant spent time in Odessa hospital, gained strength and went to do justice.
Hanul was a petty criminal. I am nor sure if Shapaev acted on his own in a revenge or he was tasked by his commanders to act. Either way, Hanul’s parasitical existence caught up with his ass…
The statue of the Motherland Calls is a Soviet monument and that Motherland is the Soviet Union.
Ukrainians have a tendency to appropriate Soviet and call it Ukraine. Conversely, they would call any bad feature of Ukraine like corruption “Soviet”. 😆
Nuclear weapons were Soviet not Russian…
Russia however is the inheritor of the USSR. Russia inherited the debts of the USSR, including debts of Soviet Ukraine. Russia payed them all. Ukraine entered independence with a clean balance sheet. Russia is always blamed for crimes of the USSR. Russia is accused of fucking up Poland together with Nazi Germany, although the ultimate beneficiaries were Lithuania, Belarus, and Ukraine. The capital of Lithuania is literally on the territory taken from Poland by the USSR. But USSR bad suddenly…
I found this faggot online and all the pictures below I have collected from his Facebook profile in one evening session…
Hello to all. I bow before your worries and your messages. Hugs to all. I am part of the Ukrainian armed forces. I have to be honest, I cannot say everything is alright. But it is as it is…
This is Evhen and he draws pisyuny… dicks.
Taras Shevchenko is a symbol of Ukrainian nationalism, who was loved by Stalin, and that’s why Ukraine is dotted with his monuments. But in reality, Ukrainians rarely bother to read him.
The Russian layered dolls were allegedly inspired by a Japanese toy of the same kind. It plays well into Ukrainian propaganda that the Russians actually stole all their culture and history and even Ukraine’s original name, which was Rus. And the robbed Ukrainians have to use a demeaning ethnonym “Ukrainian” or something like that.😆
During and after the Maidan, Ukrainian Nazis attacked Lenin and other Soviet symbols. Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy if you ask me. Lenin was an Ukrainophile, he was staunchly pro-Ukrainian and thanks to him, there is Ukraine as we know it today. Is it any wonder that Leninoval is accompanying a time where Ukraine is receding?
A lot of anti-clerical imagery mixed with Russophobia.
One of the main narratives in the West is that Putin is a mad dictator, who just out of the blue attacked innocent Ukraine that was minding its own business. One must understand that Ukraine is a post-Soviet state with a diverse ethnic and linguistic makeup and borders drawn by the General Secretaries for convenience. Hence, Ukraine entered independence with a large Russian population and a Russian naval base on the Crimean peninsula.
And in this Ukraine, the West sponsored a violent anti-Russian coup by neonazi militias in 2014. This was literally an act of war. In modern times hot war is really a last resort when everything else fails. The most common ways are influence campaigns and pressure through financial and material embargoes. Western propaganda calls it hybrid warfare when Russia does it. And the so called Maidan was sponsored by the likes of US State Department, George Soros, Pierre Omidyar, the Czech embassy, the Dutch embassy, and many others. Basically all those entities gave money to violent Russophobes. Never forget that!
The Maidan was an illegal usurpation of government by anti-Russian forces, and Russia did not hesitate and annexed Crimea. The Maidan also triggered anti-Maidan protest in South-East of Ukraine that led to the collapse of government in many areas. The eastern Donbas in particular slipped from Ukraine’s control. How much this process was helped by Russia is debated. The Ukrainians and their supporters have a tendency to focus on Russian involvement and the Russians on the other hand stress the agency of the locals. Both sides are actually correct on many points.
Russia did intervene to save DNR and LNR from being overrun by Ukrainian forces both directly, and by supplying the Donbas Militia with weapons. Was Russia wrong when it supported a clearly pro-Russian movement in Ukraine? Should Russia have stayed idly and allow the Ukrainians to crush the rebellion? Well, Russia actually almost did Pashinyan. Mind you humanitarian intervention is a thing since the days of NATO bombing of Yugoslavia. In that NATO literally broke Serbia, gave Albanian separatists a state and put a big ass base on that territory. Real politik commanded that Russia as a great power should take action.
Little do people realize but the supporters of the Maidan in the West knew very well what this shit is going to lead to, that is civil war in Ukraine. If they didn’t, then we are ruled by some incredibly stupid people and I doubt this is the case. And this is precisely why they blew up Ukraine. They turned Ukraine into a weapon with which they will attack Putin. The West wanted regime change in Russia for a long time, and better yet they wanted a break up of Russia into many Russias. Little manageable Ukraines that will be too weak to pose a threat and have a mind of their own.
Russia is not very aggressive, this is not Putin’s style. Part of this is because Russia isn’t that strong but a great deal is due to Putin’s personality I believe. Putin treats brute force as means of last resort and always seeks a political solution to conflicts. He understands that for a lasting peace you need a political solution ultimately. Ukraine had ample chance to find a peaceful solution to the crisis.
One of these mechanisms was the Minsk accords. Both Poroshenko and Zelensky had a constitutional majority and could have implemented the political part of Minsk, and could have withdrawn troops from Donbas. This way they would leave Donbas rebels no choice but to implement their part of the deal. None of this was done. Ukraine also blocked water and electricity to Crimea, which is another casus belli.
It is now clear and confirmed by Western officials that the Minsk was never to be implemented and was only used to buy Ukraine time to rearm. Ukraine wanted to reintegrate the lost territories through force. To which Russia responded with invasion. Next, the Ukrainian government decided to defeat Putin’s invasion army. The Ukrainians and their Western supporters came up with various copes such as Ukraine is defending Europe, Ukraine is fighting dictatorship. In reality, Ukraine is fighting a cynical proxy war, and it is a proxy war as mentioned by Boris Johnson and Marco Rubio. A proxy war using Ukrainians as a cannon fodder for the interests of Western designs on Russia.
Did you know Finland is constantly voted the happiest nation by World Happiness Report? The report measures GDP per capita, social security, life expectancy, freedom of expression, and trust in the government. Finland scores high in these variables. It also has a high suicide rate, particularly among men, I bet high alcoholism, and it is an expensive place to live with a high tax rate. The social security is achieved by robbing the people of their salaries.
Scandinavia and Finland is a dark and depressing place, where nothing grows, and everything yummy needs to be imported. Following Russian intervention in Ukraine, Finland abandoned neutrality, and joined NATO. The captive elite in Helsinki did this to gaslight Russia. They also closed their border with Russia. They now have a shore in the South, and border with Sweden and Norway in the North. I wonder what this must do the prices.
Russophobia is very expensive. I hear Finland is experiencing not the best days economically. Number of people in Finland were making money off tourism. Tourism from Russia. Now that no Russian tourists are coming, there are ghost towns close to the border with Russia. Finnish economy is growing slow, transports through Finnish territory to Russia have ended. Finland sent billions in military help to Ukraine. They are de facto at war with Russia.
Luckily, Russia is not going to attack NATO, so Finland is safe from a hot war. For now…
The Darkest one uses his Siberian shamans to pull strings on the Donald…
So, Ukrs aren’t really surrounded, and Trump is repeating Putin’s talking points, aiding Russian propaganda narratives. All these pro-Ukraine profiles are having their anuses on fire over this tweet by Trump. They are probably or repeating Zelensky, who said everything is fine.
Moscow, since a long time, constructs its ideological foundation on the connection to historical Rus’, creating a narrative that the capital of Ukraine – Kiev (as the center of Rus, and essentially Rus) is its fundamental component. This imagining supports not only the mythical but also ideological concept of Moscow being the “Third Rome” which determines its status on the world stage.
Without Ukraine, Russia loses not only mythical historical legitimacy but also its symbolic connection with its imperial legacy, which makes the existence of empire impossible in the traditional sense. At the same time, attitude to other colonies once within the Russian Empire and the USSR is completely different.
11 January 1918, the People’s Commissar Soviet, headed by Lenin, recognized the independence of “Turkish Armenia”…

I love this borscht composed of outdated ideological concepts and anal phobias of the Russophobes. Let’s analyze them. Ukrainians actually think Russia is illegitimately called Russia, and the classic concept of Russian history from the Kievan period to the Moscow period is somehow wrong. They actually think Ukraine is something ancient, which it isn’t. Strangely enough, contemporary Russia was totally OK about Ukraine being Ukraine. Ukraine however turned out to be an anti-Russia. Ukrainian nation building is basically an exercise in the rejection of Russianness. Ukrainian nationalism glorifies traitors like Mazepa and celebrates anything anti-Russian. Therefore, the Russians stuck to the conception that was common and the Ukrainians try to torpedo it.
The Third Rome has to do with the Rurikids being related to the last ruling dynasty of Byzantium, the Porphyrogenites. The Grand Price adopted the title Tsar, and claimed to be the continuator of Rome after Byzantium. In the Middle Ages, this was nothing uncommon. Nobody outside Russia really cared about Moscow’s claim. And I don’t see anyone bringing it up now. This is Ukrop anus anguish.
Russia is not an Empire without Ukraine is a trope brought to us by Zbigniew Brzezinski, who had smelly Polack rectal sensitivities over Ukraine and Russia. Indeed, Putler needs Ukraine because he wants to crown himself emperor of the Third Rome. 😆 You know some people say Russia already is an Empire without Ukraine and needs decolonization.
I also see another ass bleeding in the text above. The other Soviet republics were not colonies of Russia. Without the USSR’s good will, there would probably not be places like Kazakhstan or Azerbaijan. Ukraine would probably would not exist as we know it without Soviet Ukrainksation. Ukrs never cut the USSR any slack. Instead, they adopted the post-colonial discourse from Western universities.
“Western Armenia” the issue was dealt with by Yosif Stalin. The territories which we are talking about were occupied by the Russian army during WWI, and were supported by local separatist movements. In this case, these were Ottoman territories, which made their recognition a matter of temporary tactical courtesy than a strategic choice.
The Bolshevik approach to the national question in the beginning of the twentieth century was pragmatic. The recognition of Polish, Finish independence, and the independence of many others was not motivated by a genuine support for the right of nations for determination but rather by political expediency. In the case of Poland, this direction was already marked by the Interim Government and the Bolsheviks did not see a reason to correct it. Finland because of its political maturity and readiness to resist also found itself outside the orbit of the Bolsheviks.
However, Ukraine always had a special meaning for Moscow. Its historical role in the formation of the Russian state, its natural resource potential, make it impossible for Moscow to see it…

Finland got independence pretty much with the abolition monarchy in Russia. It existed as a land governed by Nicholas II, not as Russia proper. It had its own laws, its own parliament etc. Poland’s rights have been curtailed after several Polish uprisings in nineteenth century but it existed in the shadows, and the Russians never considered it to be part of Russia.
Vladimir Lenin was completely pro-Ukrainian and he viewed Ukraine as an unfortunate victim of Russian imperialism, and deserving of independence. Lenin even acquiesced to the Brest-Litovsk accords and allowed the occupation of Ukraine by the Central Powers. He betrayed his fellow Communists in Donetsk-Krivoy Rog Republic. However, the civil war in Ukraine was very much a fight between local Bolsheviks and the Ukrainian People’s Republic under Hrushevsky and Petlyura. Contemporary Russia was also cool with Ukraine until it became anti-Russia in 2014.
Hence, having anal pains over Russian attitude towards Ukraine is kinda misplaced. Not so long ago, Ukraine was Russia, and the Ukrainians were Russians. Hence the Russians are only reacting to the teleological development of the Ukrainian project into anti-Russia. The Russians have very little issue with friendly and brotherly Ukraine, and accept its existence.
…as a region that can be divided from the empire. A complete, organic, national identity of the Ukrainians that is developing separately from the imperial “Russian” completely undermines the foundations of the “Third Rome”. This is why Moscow’s propaganda machine is building narratives about the “triune nation” and “historical commonality”, categorically denying the right of Rus Ukraine to its separate history and independent future.
If we compare this approach with the acknowledgment of the independence of the “Turkish Armenia”, we need to point out that this territory has never been part of the internal core of Moscow, and its strategic importance was only within the frame of a temporary military-political context. The recognition of independence had the character of a diplomatic move and not the reflection of an imperial necessity.
An important factor is also how Moscow uses historical myths. In the case of Ukraine the basis is formed by the mythical “Old Rus”, which is said to be the source of the Russian statehood. At the same time in the case of other territories there aren’t these deep symbolic connections. That means that the destiny of “Turkish Armenia” or even…

The author refers to Russian historical concepts as myths but talks about so called “Rus Ukraine”. Rus Ukraine is a concept invented by Ukrainian nationalists to link Old Rus history to Ukrainian reality of today. Ukraine however was referred to as Rus, or Russia Minor not so long ago, and the name Ukraine was adopted for the nationalist project under the influence of the poems of Taras Shevchenko, and with support of the Austrian government, somewhere in late nineteenth century. The name was originally used in the context of Shevchenko’s home region in the Central Dnieper region. The Austrians were actually interested in changing the identity of its own subjects
If it wasn’t for failure of Russia in the Great War, this bullshit conception wouldn’t ever succeed, and poison the minds of people into the twenty first century. Ukrainians need anti-Russian mythology to justify their very existence. If faced with reality instead of their propaganda, they become Russians. The former minister, Dmytro Tabachnyk and the writer Oles Buzyna were Russians although they were more Ukrainian than many Ukrnazis. Russianness is high culture, Ukrainism is militant provincialism.
…such important regions such as Poland or Finland, would be decided depending on the current situation, while Ukraine was always at the centre of imperial ambitions. Today’s discourse of Moscow demonstrates lack of change in this approach. In the conditions of today’s World, where empires do not have the same legitimacy as before, Moscow continues to cling to the past, preserving the illusion of historical right to control over Ukraine. However, the historical paradoxes show that if a country tries harder to hold on to what was lost the faster it loses its future.

I personally believe that much like Lenin accepted the occupation of Ukraine by Central Powers, the current Russian Federation did accept the loss of Ukraine in the nineties. But given the similarities between the two countries, and a strong Russian element within Ukraine, the countries were bound to come together. Much like the Ukrainian Bolsheviks came to accept Moscow, the Russian Federation found willing collaborationists in contemporary Ukraine. Particularly in Donbas and Crimea. It is not that Russia will lose Ukraine but that Ukraine and Russia are natural allies, and to this conception is opposed Ukrainian nationalism that not just asserts that Ukraine is not Russia but also that Ukraine belongs to another civilization and is antagonistic to Russia.
I personally think contemporary Russia never had any wish to claim the entire Ukraine. They never committed the resources, or did any actions that would suggest that. It could come to that if the Ukrainian resistance in Eastern Ukraine collapses but in that case, I still cannot see Russia occupying the entirety of Ukraine. In my opinion they should subjugate the entirety of Ukraine.
They literally included this AI picture of an Asian guy with a cross.
I have recently began to collect material regarding repression of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. This post should be similar to the one I did on so-called busifikatsia (forcible mobilization of men in Ukraine)…
There Ukrs and their supporters claim the Ukrainian Orthodox is somehow in cahoots with the Kremlin. They accuse canonical Orthodoxy of collaboration with KGB, and level other accusations.
Meanwhile, the new Ukrainian Church established by the Ukrainian government does weird shit like worshiping dog Patron. You know there isn’t the Holy Spirit.
Above are parishioners of some remote church in Western Ukraine. They are surely Putin’s KGB agents…
