Suggesting we do nothing to support a country that is being ruthlessly invaded doesn't make you "anti-war."

@endracizmpls @JO_clever_KE So has europe lol and so has ukraine. Why should "russian security" concerns go over everyone elses. Impose no fly zone on ukraine, shoot down shitty russian aircraft, have their 40 year old tanks get rolled with at weapons.
English
Russia are openly declaring themselves enemies of the world. All but openly stating their intention to start more wars.
Dmitry Medvedev@MedvedevRussiaE
Today, some French minister has said that they declared an economic war on Russia. Watch your tongue, gentlemen! And don’t forget that in human history, economic wars quite often turned into real ones
English
Athena retweetledi
@MedvedevRussiaE French minister just spoke inaccurately. He declared an economic special operation. Please watch you tongue and name it as it is. It is not war. 🇺🇦

@pikuimltd @ThoroughTweets @HarshaWalia @NaomiAKlein So south american refugee is going to book several connected flights without visas costing possibly half their yearly salary, going through several countries to end up in Poland lol
English
English
Surreal to know Poland is setting up welcome centers for Ukranian refugees. Because Poland is also building high tech wall & detention centers & funding Polish Border Guard to block migration of mostly Yemeni, Egyptian, Syrian, Pakistani, Afghan refugees - as recently as today.

@teddy_cat1 @6to12elbow @yogagirlmab @marwilliamson Unlike you i can hold multiple things at once like US doing bad things is bad and Russia doing bad things is bad. What is this weird competition your trying to do?? Russian victims are just as dead as napalm victims in Vietnam.
English
@Athena36619946 @6to12elbow @yogagirlmab @marwilliamson Do you think black people were enslaved by choice? Do you think that the Native Americans wanted to be murdered and have their land stolen?
Russia is bad. USA is worse.
USA's military expenditures are almost 1/2 of the entire world's expenditures.
English
@teddy_cat1 @6to12elbow @yogagirlmab @marwilliamson That is bad but USSR/Russia literally ethnically cleansed, illegally occupied, brutally murdered civilians in half of europe, then participated in those same proxy wars just on the other side.
English
@Athena36619946 @6to12elbow @yogagirlmab @marwilliamson The U.S. has been in at least 19 wars since World War II.
The total death toll of people killed by American troops is over 12 million.
Still you haven't shown any compassion for them.
I guess you're okay with your tax dollars paying for genocide and crimes against humanity.

@kortesuomikko @liandersson Suomi on liittoutumaton jos tuo oltais tehty ois suomalaiset olleet jonossa liittymään Ukrainan armeijaan ilmaisen ämpärin toivossa.
Suomi
Suomi lähettää Ukrainaan 2000 kappaletta luotisuojaliivejä ja 2000 komposiittikypärää, 100 kappaletta paareja sekä kaksi ensihoitoaseman varustusta.
Suomi lähettää lisää tukea Ukrainalle valtioneuvosto.fi/-/10616/suomi-…

@teddy_cat1 @6to12elbow @yogagirlmab @marwilliamson USA hasnt killed millions of people. Conflicts sure but that encompasses a lot more than US actions. Russia has been involved in many of the same conflicts doing the same thing. So has been Iran. Russia bombs just as bad as US bombs in Syria
English
@Athena36619946 @6to12elbow @yogagirlmab @marwilliamson I am pleased if they're getting help.
I'm upset about millions of people being killed by us, not by Russia, with our own tax dollars over the past few decades who you and most Americans don't speak out and take action for.
Why do you ignore their suffering that we're causing?
English
@teddy_cat1 @6to12elbow @yogagirlmab @marwilliamson Then you should be pleased that ukraine is getting help not get upset
English
@Athena36619946 @6to12elbow @yogagirlmab @marwilliamson Helping others pleases me immensely. I do believe you missed my point entirely.
I don't blame you for ignoring the innocent people we're killing in other countries if you don't know about them.
But instead of asking "how can I help them, too?" you spout off self-righteously.
English
@therealsloba @n_roettgen Most likely scenario is that russia is deploying more troops leaving defence of russia proper lacking and this is a way to signal for anyone not to try anything as more and more russian troops are held in ukraine
English
@Athena36619946 @n_roettgen …there's no question that it would be justifiable for his army. Whether or not it would be justifiable to NATO members to the point they'd be willing to going out all nuclear for 🇺🇦 1 can't tell yet, but let's hope we never find out, so every1 should seek peace ASAP instead rly.
English
@therealsloba @n_roettgen If he is nuts enough to use nukes then he truly wants ww3
English
@n_roettgen Agreed…he won't…he uses 1…small yield tactical nuke, clearing out western 🇺🇦 resistance, whilst simultaneously stopping any&all arms resupplies, in the process devastating 🇺🇦 like Chernobyl did, and 🇺🇦 citizens are left to suffer most for decades…easy for us to stand that way
English
@cthemonsoon @SocDoneLeft These things are idiotic comparisons because increasing 1% of 1 million is 1000 and increasing from 5000 to 10000 is 200%
English
@SocDoneLeft The soviet Union defiantly had its problems. But it also had its successes. Any mention of the successes and what we can take from it automatically gets pushed down though whenever it gets brought up. Why is it taboo to learn. From "How The World Works" by Paul Cockshott
English
@the_dord @StuartJAtkinson @SocDoneLeft If oligarks and russian elite gets their kids deported then it would be something, just your random russian transfer student, seems just cruel for no reason
English
@teddy_cat1 @6to12elbow @yogagirlmab @marwilliamson If helping others upsets you then you didnt really care about people getting helped
English
@6to12elbow @yogagirlmab @marwilliamson Those conflicts are ongoing in various stages. Surely you can see that it would be upsetting for those of us who are witnessing them and becoming personally involved.
Why aren't you supporting them, too? Is it because they're brown? Do you only speak out for white people?
English
@queenMo @No1KnowzNothing @WarHistoryBuffz @Global_Mil_Info They didnt do their fair share. They did 90% heavy lifting at the end.
English
@No1KnowzNothing @WarHistoryBuffz @Global_Mil_Info Stop it. They did their fair share. Stahlin convinced Churchill to work together. Russians suffered tremendously to fight the Nazis. Lets go that route of diminishing their sacrifices.
English
According to U.S. officials to CNN:
- Russia is suffering heavier losses in armor, aircraft & personnel than expected.
- Ukrainian AD exceeding expectations.
- Russia has not established air supremacy yet.
- Russia has been unable to maintain sufficient supply lines.

@pikuimltd @ThoroughTweets @HarshaWalia @NaomiAKlein How are refugees from across the world going to end up in Poland?
English
@ThoroughTweets @HarshaWalia @NaomiAKlein So are those from Central America yet we haven’t seen Poland offer to accept thousands of Guatemalans or Salvadorans fleeing violent gangs refuge, could it be because they’re as dark as the Syrians they despise?
English
@sobeluis29 @marwilliamson Thats the point. To make it too costly to start negotiations
English
The quality of personhood being displayed by the Ukrainians at this point is stunning. Those who are fighting are so fierce, and those who are desperately fleeing with their children are so calm. Wow.
