#russia ukraine conflict
Imagine your city is fucking gone. Really sit with that thought. Let it germinate within your mind. It's no longer there. The streets you lived in, where you played with your friends as a kid, where you fell in love. Gone. It's a pile of smoking rubble. It's not there. You can't go back there. It's not there. It no longer exists. This is what russia did to Avdiivka. This is what they did to Bakhmut earlier, and to many other cities and towns. All because Western aid is being stalled. Because a lunatic religious fanatic is the Speaker of the House, and his party is full of self-serving traitors to the country. Because Polish farmers are blocking transit of important military aid at our border. Because all of you drank up russian psy-ops like thirsty wanderers in the desert. Because we gave away the weapons that could've prevented this to the perpetrator of this, in exchange for a deal to "guarantee our sovereignty" which one of the signatories broke and the other two are afraid to fulfill.
So sit with that thought now, and draw conclusions, and be better, and do whatever is in your power to prevent it from happening in the future, because if they aren't stopped in Ukraine, they won't stop with Ukraine. Do everything you can, so that the thought is a hypothetical, not a premonition.

Musk was afraid that Russia could respond to the drone attack with a nuclear strike against Ukraine. This fear was reinforced by Musk's discussions with Russian government officials. Musk called the horror scenario “Mini Pearl Harbor."

Tankies will bend over backwards to justify every single shitty thing that Russia has done to Ukraine and call anyone that argues with them a Nazi because fundamentally they value stalinist aesthetics and sticking it to the west over shit like basic human decency. They've gone so deep down the anti-western contrarianism rabbit hole that on a long enough timeline I won't be surprised if they start saying that the Ukranian children getting raped by Russian soldiers deserve it because living west of the Dnieper river makes them Nazis by birthright or something.
I wish I could drag these people the the houses in Bucha and Irpin where there are houses with bloody nails in tabletops where women had their hands nailed in place before being raped by Russian soldiers, where you can see rows of blood stains on walls outside of houses where entire families were lined up and shot, and where the guys from my old squad found shipping containers full of corpses with their hands and feet bound. I want to force them to look at these horrors and then demand that they explain to me how any of this is some sort of "Marxist-Leninist praxis" and not just crimes against humanity of the exact same brand the Nazis carried out.
I wish I could take them through Donetsk oblast and show them town after town that lies in ruins. Buildings shredded by autocannon fire, flattened by artillery, and peppered with bullet holes. I wish I could point out all of the still nearly pristine Russian Orthodox churches. Shiny and mostly untouched by the advance of the Russian forces that respect a symbol of their own culture without having a hint of what Christ's teachings were meant to teach them.
I wish I could show them the elderly civilians, struggling to survive in recently liberated areas. Either incapable of leaving, or too stubborn to go. I wish they could see the children. Waving and the soldiers. Smiling when given food. Feeding their families by teaching some of the foreign fighters Ukrainian.
I can't show them any of this. Because they don't care. They aren't interested. The death and suffering here is an abstract concept for them. They don't give a shit about people. Just about the ideology that defines their sense of self. That's theory without praxis. The ironic peak of the hypocrisy of internet tankies.

[ 📹📸 A Russian military transport plane, was in the process of flying 65 Ukrainian POWs to a location in the Bolgorod oblast to facilitate a prisoner exchange when it was shot out of the sky by Ukrainian missile, killing everyone on board.]
🇺🇦⚔️🇷🇺 🚀🛩️💥 🚨
UKRAINIAN MISSILE SHOOTS DOWN RUSSIAN MILITARY TRANSPORT PLANE FILLED WITH ITS OWN POWs
74 are dead, including 65 Ukrainian POWs, after a Russian military transport plane being used to facilitate a prisoner exchange scheduled for Wednesday was downed somewhere over the Bolgorod region of the Russian Federation, near the border with Ukraine. The prisoner exchange has since been called off by Russian authorities.
In an article published by Ukrainian Pravda, a Ukrainian news periodical, a source is cited as saying that the aircraft was downed by Ukrainian forces near the border with Russia's Bolgorod region, however they have since retracted the source, and are now claiming they cannot confirm the news. The Russian authorities have since confirmed that the plane was in fact downed by a Ukrainian missile, likely using either an American Patriot air defense missile or a German-made Iris-T.
In a statement released by the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, the Russian authorities say that the crash took place at approximately 11:15am (local time), when a Russian Il-76 military transport plane filled with Ukrainian POWs was downed near the Bolgorod region.
“At about 11:00 Moscow time, an Il-76 plane crashed during a scheduled flight in the Belgorod region. On board there were 65 captured Ukrainian Armed Forces servicemen, <including> six crew members and three accompanying persons,” the statement says.
In its statement, the Russian Defense Ministry slammed the missile strike, declaring the "Kiev regime committed a terrorist act" in downing the military transport.
According to Russian sources, the aircraft had been en route from the Chkalovsky military airbase in Moscow, and was shot down by air defenses stationed somewhere in the Kharkov oblast in the northeast of Ukraine, killing everyone on board.
The Russian and Ukrainian authorities had agreed to conduct a prisoner exchange later on Wednesday, with the exchange set to take place near the Russian village of Kolotilovka, also in the Bolgorod oblast, close to the border with Ukraine.
A second military transport aircraft carrying some 80 Ukrainian POWs was turned around before reaching the danger area, and was successfully diverted to another airbase after news of the downing reached Russian authorities.
The Ukrainian officials have so far refused to comment on the crash, remaining mum as news of the event spreads, although Andrey Yusov, a spokesperson for the Main Directorate of Intelligence (GUR) confirmed a prisoner exchange had been scheduled for Wednesday, adding that the exchange has since been cancelled.

Russia formally expanding ambitions in Ukraine
The deputy chairman of the Security Council and former Russian president, Dmitry Medvedev, presented a “new” map of Eastern Europe, which showed parts of present-day Ukraine within other nations, according to Russian media.
Tumblr media
Vinnytsia Oblast could become part of Romania, Uzhhorod could go to Hungary, Poland would get Lviv, Ivano-Frankivsk and Zhytomyr, while the rest of the regions would join Russia, according to Medvedev’s map.
Transnistria, a part of Moldova that recently asked Russia for “protection”, would also be counted as part of Russia, the map suggested. According to Medvedev, Ukraine would retain only a small territory with its centre in Kyiv.
“Russia needs to follow its current path. The historical parts of the country [Ukraine] should return home.”

Глупый дед, который выпустил зверя войны из клетки,
Полагал, что он мудрый такой - «СВО» дрессировщик.
Только зверь его съест самого, обглодав, как креветку,
Потому что зверь ненасытный и всех скушать хочет.
##################
Old fool, who let the beast of war out of the cage,
Believed that he was the best animal tamer and a quick war resolve a major post-Soviet feud.
But the beast eats him gnawing like a shrimp on the astonished world stage,
Because the beast is insatiable and never feels any gratitude.
#################
Старий дурень, хто випустив звіра війни з клітки,
Вважав, що він такий мудрий дресирувальник.
Тільки звір його з'їсть самого, обгризши як креветку,
Тому що звір ненаситний і з'їсти всіх хоче.

Rosyjski neonazista "Uragan" zginął w Ukrainie.
Rosyjski neonazista z Woroneża i były członek ultraprawicowego gangu Format 18 Artem "Uragan" Krasnolucki , który walczył po stronie Ukrainy, został zabity w trakcie działań bojowych. 20 kweitnia poinformowały o tym źródła rosyjskie, a informacja ta została później potwierdzona przez skrajnie prawicowego blogera Vladislava Pozdnyakova. Kanał Uragana nie był aktualizowany od 11 marca.
Artem Krasnolutsky to znany neonazista z gangu Maksima "Tesaka" Martsinkiewicza, wcześniej członek NSO-Triglav Woroneż, który był dwukrotnie sądzony w Rosji. W 2011 roku został skazany na sześć miesięcy kolonii karnej za kilkukrotne pchnięcie nożem w dyskotece w Kałaczu. W 2015 r. porwał mężczyznę i postrzelił go w nogi. W tej sprawie w 2018 r. został skazany na 8 lat kolonii o zaostrzonym rygorze, ale "Uragan" uciekł z sądu i trafił do Grupy "Wagner". Pierwszym, który tam trafił, był jego brat Władysław, który wyjechał do Syrii i zginął tam rok wcześniej. Na krótko przed rosyjską inwazją na Ukrainę Kransolucki uciekł z Rosji. Podobno inny znany rosyjski neonazista, Siergiej "Botsman" Korotkicz pomógł mu przenieść się do Ukrainy. Jednak po rozpoczęciu wojny stosunki między Uraganem i Botsmanem zepsuły się do tego stopnia, że Uragan zagroził zabiciem swojego byłego towarzysza broni. Po rozpoczęćiu wojny "Uragan" został prawdopodobnie zwerbowany przez SBU.
Russian neo-Nazi "Uragan" was killed in Ukraine.
Russian neo-Nazi from Voronezh and former member of the ultra-right Format 18 gang, Artem "Uragan" Krasnolucki, who fought on the side of Ukraine, was killed during combat operations. Russian sources reported this on April 20, and this information was later confirmed by far-right blogger Vladislav Pozdnyakov. Uragan's channel has not been updated since March 11.
Artem Krasnolutsky is a known neo-Nazi from the gang of Maksim "Tesak" Martsinkevich, previously a member of NSO-Triglav Voronezh, who was tried twice in Russia. In 2011, he was sentenced to six months in a penal colony for stabbing him several times in a disco in Kalach. In 2015, he kidnapped a man and shot him in the legs. In this case, in 2018, he was sentenced to 8 years in a high-security colony, but "Uragan" escaped from the court and ended up in the "Wagner" Group. The first to get there was his brother Władysław, who went to Syria and died there a year earlier. Shortly before the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Kransolyotsky fled Russia. Another famous Russian neo-Nazi, Sergei "Botsman" Korotkich, reportedly helped him move to Ukraine. However, once the war began, relations between Uragan and Botsman soured to the point that Uragan threatened to kill his former comrade in arms. After the war began, "Uragan" was probably recruited by the SBU.

After seeing Westerners bully a 14-year old boy from Odesa for not wanting to potentially interact with people who are committing genocide of his people on twitter, I felt compelled to return to that hellsite for a while to write a thread to explain why we might feel that way. Here it is, I feel it might be useful for those who don't understand why we're like this when it's "not all russians":

RUSSIAN FORCES HUNT DOWN ANOTHER U.S.-MADE ABRAMS TANK IN UKRAINE
📹 Footage from a Russian FPV drone as it hunts down and targets yet another American-made Abrams main battle tank (MBT) belonging to the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU).
It is unclear from the video whether the tank was just damaged or destroyed by the drone strike, however, several Abrams MBT's have already been destroyed by the Russian military.
