Settlers & zionists trying to discredit Native American solidarity with Palestine by still calling Palestinians "not actually Indigenous" & "invaders" like motherfuckers you're just repeating the same shit the settlers on Turtle Island tell US (which just reinforces Palestinians ARE Indigenous), your stupid comments don't sway us. We deal with that bullshit on the regular so there's no use in trying

#i saw a settler call a Native American 'Arab' as well so thats a new one #we get called Asian/Russian/Mongolian/Chinese/etc for when moniyawak wanna invalidate us this aint new #like hm i wonder where Ive heard THIS before

romanticizing the soviet union has been an increasingly huge problem on here lately, so i think hypervigilance for that is probably why people have been sussy of your post. i will admit i checked out your profile before reblogging to make sure you weren't another stalinist weirdo 😅 anyway, have a nice day! and may your notes be peaceful

The notes seem pretty normal to me, got one comment saying something like “op didn’t deserve the harassment” and I’m confused what they meant? There’s just some people disagreeing or correcting me on stuff

Haven’t personally seen many tankie blogs on here to feel wary like that but I am like that with YouTubers so I get it lol. I don’t think it’s romanticizing the Soviet Union to like some stuff from it. I pretty openly talk about liking Soviet cartoons, I grew up watching them and my art style is influenced by them, there’s lots of cool Soviet art in general and they made cool scientific achievements. It was a repressive authoritarian regime that committed atrocities but it’s also a place a lot of regular people lived in up until pretty recently and it’s where my entire family is from. It’s like how it’s not American exceptionalism to like southern food or jazz music

#Russian is technically my first language but #I grew up in America so I only learned Russian from my family and media #so my Russian is worse than my English and I’m sure worse than a lot of other native Russian speakers #I prob got some language stuff wrong in the post lol

The Russian state using ethnic minorities as cannon fodder - with a focus on Buryats

Article written in 2022, update on the Free Buryatia Foundation in September 2023 given at the end of the post.

Putin announced on October 14th 2022 that by the end of October, his partial mobilisation process would be complete

The recruitment target was 300,000. 222,000 were recruited, and it was claimed that there'd be no more plans for future recruitment

The mobilisation process soaked nation wide outrage which lead to mass protests.

It drew in criticism from some of the Russian political elite

The mobilisation process disproportionately affected ethnic minorities/impoverished regions (many impoverished regions have a high ethnic minority population)

Tuva Republic

Regions that held high populations of ethnic minorities bared the brunt of war-related deaths.

Both Ukrainian media and authorities have levelled accusations at Russian ethnic minorities - that they committed war crimes in Bucha, Ukraine

This accusations was made in May 2022 by Lydmyla Denisova, Ukrainian ombudsman for human rights

Buryats and Chechens were being accused of this

This was a form of scapegoating (not to say they 0 ethnic minorities have committed war crimes in Ukraine of course)

The Free Buryat Foundation investigated this and produced a report that challenged the notion that Buryats were ever sent to Bucha, let alone being responsible for the war crimes committed

Victoria Maladaeva is the vice president of the Free Buryatia Foundation.

She said:

Dagestan, Tuva Republic and Buryatia Republic have the highest death tolls

Moscow, with 17 million, had >50 deaths.

Buryatia with only 980,000 had 364

A Buryat is 7.8 x more likely to die in the war compared to an ethnic Russian.

A Tuvan is 10.4x more likely

The biggest losses were at the beginning of the war and numbers gradually decreased.

Mobilisation was first and foremost carried out in ethnic republics

The day Putin announced this, authorities came to Buryatia at night, went into people's homes and took them from their beds.

No one was given draft notices

They even took men with multiple children, men from the same family

Endangered ethnic groups reside in Dagestan

There are very small communities of those people with populations of around 13,000

Despite this, those minorities were still drafted

There are also very small communities in the Sakha Republic.

They are so remote, helicopters are needed to be called for medical treatment

They almost never come because of how remote these communities are

Funnily enough, helicopters came immediately to draft those people upon Putin's announcement

Putin is a Russian imperialist through and through

None Russians are treated like second class citizens

Russian cultural chauvinism is seen even in small things - such as names

Putin would frequently mispronounce Kazakhstan's president's name. If you have an ethnic Buryat name for example, Russians are reluctant to use it, instead assigning you an "easier" Russian name

Kassym-Jomart Tokayev

Unfortunately, many of the people of Buryatia believe in the Russian narrative about Nazi ideology in Ukraine

It is one of the missions of the free Buryatia Foundation to help Buryats understand that this is Russian propaganda

The focus on Buryat/ethnic minority war crimes has a racial element

When an ethnic minority commits a war crime, their ethnicity is singled out

It should not matter the ethnicity of a war criminal

78 Buryat soldiers from the 11th air assault brigade were barred from terminating their contract

They were imprisoned in Luhansk.

Only Ilya Kaminskiy returned. The fate of the other men is unknown

The Free Buryatia Foundation knows they cannot help everyone but they do their best. They help people in terminating their contracts for example and have been quite successful in this.

The Free Buryatia Foundation was established to counter Russian propaganda and to protest the war.

People worldwide took an interest to this, so they founded the free Buryatia Foundation.

The Free Buryatia Foundation is the first ethnic anti war organisation in Russia

They aided in founding anti war organisations in other ethnic regions such as Tuva, Kalmykia, Udmurtia, Sakha

Many Buryats fled to Mongolia and Kazakhstan

Some men were able to come back after being drafted, some were not

The economic situation for Buryatia is dire. It ranked 81st out of 85 of Russia's regions when it came to living standards

Buryats had to spend money on a list of supplies for war that Russia did not provide them

Very recently, on September 1st, Russia banned the Free Buryatia Foundation, labelling them as undesirable and anti Russian.

I didn't think I'd ever experience this, but listen. I'm not your therapist. I'm just a little guy with an art blog, You don’t need to send me every action you take. I won’t say who exactly we are talking about, but I hope this person himself will understand the hint (although I should say this directly to him, but I think that I needed to make this post someday)

and about the language. I speak english here, I planned to make this blog a kind of english practice and I ask you not to write in russian (I feel pretty uncomfortable about this, sorry)

We see him come and know him ours

Russia: "Carol of the Russian Children," traditional // Kenya: The Nativity, Elima Njau // France: "Bring a Torch, Jeanette Isabella," Nicolas Saboly // Haiti: Madonna and Child, Ismael Saincilus // Australia: "The Three Drovers," William James // China: Tryptic by Lu Hongnian // Canadian/Algonquian: "Huron Carol," Jean de Brébeuf

#the visual depictions are lovely #but what really gets me every time are the little cultural details in the music #music that tells the story of the Nativity while placing it in a world that's familiar to the listener #fur robed moujiks on snowboard plateaus in place of middle eastern shepherds #bark lodges instead of stables and rabbit skin in place of swaddling clothes #wandering hunter and chiefs from far off places instead of shepherds and wise men (man i love the Huron Carol) #and little french girls running to gather the village to come see Jesus #it's easy for an excess of historical concern to make Jesus feel distant and far off #/I know/ that Jesus was born in the ancient near east and have had my fill of books and sermons and the like unpacking the implications #I've laughed with my friends and family at the wild inaccuracies of Nativity sets and tellings #the crazy blonde mary in the kids nativity set at Walmart #what is that alpaca doing at the living Nativity don't they know those are south American? #yada yada #and then i look at these carols and think. it's okay not to get mired in the history. good even #yes Jesus entered into time and space in a very specific manner #but he also came for all of us #as another carol says: we see him come and know him ours #i just think this practice is lovely #that the impact of the Incarnation was such that it send little french girls running to their villages #and drew algonquin hunters and russian peasants to the manger to see him #it's the great crowd of witnesses in a way #all of us together preparing him room throughout all the corners of the earth #in Bethlehem that night it was only the shepherds who got to see him #but in spirit it was all of us #because it's just like the angel said: #good news of great joy which will be to all people #to all people #starting with the shepherds and going out to all the earth #unto us a child is born #intertextuality

this user watched "The Master and Margarita" (2024) and she hopes that whenever this movie gets a digital release, it also gets english subtitles, because honestly, this was the best movie I've watched in the past few years

#the master and margarita #there's a thing I have to admit: I love british/hollywood adaptations of russian literature #because in russia those books are treated like sacred texts #which turns every adaptation into a blind word-to-word depiction of a novel #and the soul or the main idea quite often gets lost or covered in all of it #side note: I absolutely loved that in credits they wrote august diehl's name in the latin alphabet #like that's actually an amazing idea to use the native language of an actor to mention them. cheffs kiss #(I'm sure someone have done this before that's just the first time I saw it. so) #personall stuff

The Enarei were Scythian androgynous soothsayers who played an important role in Scythian religion. The Enarei were associated with the orgiastic cult of the goddess Artimpasa, also acted as seers and performed a special form of divination, in which they used the inner bark of linden trees and willow inflorescences. The Enerei belonged to the most powerful Scythian aristocracy. They were born men, but wore women's clothes, did women's work, spoke like women, and the Scythians believed that they were inherently different from other men, and their androgyny was of divine origin. The Scythians believed that the androgyny of the Enereans arose in this period as a result of the curse of the goddess Artimpasa on the perpetrators of the plundering of the temple, this curse was hereditary and was inherited by the descendants of the perpetrators of the plundering.

#Let me remind you that I am not a HISTORIAN #I take the Scythian history as the basis of my history because I want to and because they lived for 2 thousand years in my native steppes💅 #I literally spent my childhood in museums until they were looted by the russian occupiers #my oc #oc #original character #digital art #art #illustration #digital aritst #укртумбочка #artists on tumblr #digital drawing #арткозацтво #drawing #ukrainian culture #scythian #enerei
