Why is this such a gotcha? As I recall, Zelenskyy used to speak Russian with his wife and children (at least, that’s what he told his biographer, Simon Shuster). When Russia attacked in February 2022, his words were "будем хуяриться," which showed a perfect command of Russian.
Забавно что у Зеленского и Порошенко интерфейс на русском языке. На публике они говорят на мове, а между собой и дома на родном русском языке. (Еще вкладка HDrezka, этот сайт запрещен в UA, и windows на маке).😆

The remnants of NAFO are harassing Ukrainian influencers. I've had my share of disagreements with some Ukrainian influencers, but these nasty personal attacks are completely inexcusable. My support goes to Oksii, Dimko, and everyone else who is being targeted.
Some of you might want to revisit your motivation for being a "Ukraine supporter". Is it for clicks, more followers, some attention, grift, for being a part of the "club"? Or is it genuinely to help Ukraine? Yesterday I have seen a post attacking Oksii by so-called Ukraine.

Hey Dietmar,. A Russia expert here. What do you reckon needs an additional explanation regarding Russian propaganda?. Also happy to engage re: imperialist mindset once a workable definition of such a mindset is supplied.
Every so-called 'Russia expert' who has not explained the extraordinary nature of the permanently lying Russian propaganda machine and the scale of their imperialist mindset is either part of a propaganda network, ideologically influenced, extremely naive, or all together.

This comes up heaps among my Russian émigré contacts. The older relatives (mums, dads, grandparents) are often Putin supporters. Makes you wonder if this whole mess might change their tune a bit.
Чтобы у всех этих замедлителей интернета руки отвалились. Сегодня с бедной мамой целый день провозились, чтобы установить новые мессенджеры. Она старается изо всех сил, плачет, ругается, но стойко пытается понять по квакающему замедленному ТГ, что ей делать.А как у вас с этим?.

And in 2024, 61 million USD of that economic boon came from Canada, you know, the maple-leaf country in your username. Funny how some academics are eager to punch down on Russian society for not rising up against Putin, yet fail to call out their own governments.
The excuses Westerners make for Ru society’s consistent/broad support for the attempted conquest of Ukraine are endless! After « Ru don’t know the truth » and « they are afraid of repression », we now have « they have to make a living ».

The year is 2022. Amazon announces it will no longer deliver to Russia. Russians, as imagined by NAFO influencers: . "Oh no! How will we live without Amazon delivery?" . Russians, in reality: . "Wait, Amazon delivered to Russia?"
