"The purpose of propaganda is not to make you believe something. It is to make you believe nothing. Then you will do nothing."
Some pictures I took when visiting the National Museum of Folk Architecture and Life of Ukraine.

👀 Is there a monument to Shevchenko in your country/city?

"i know you’re afraid of blood so we’ll write it with water

the water the wounded man asked for when he could no longer swallow and just

looked at it

water that seeps through a shelled-out roof

water that can replace tears"

As in Ukraine, it's demeaning to say only Putin is responsible. Putin never pulled a trigger. It was Russian soldiers, pilots, bombs & bullets. I didn’t hear of Russian mass desertions or protests. They targeted civilian infrastructure, schools & hospitals, razing cities.

"Russia has never lost a war?"
History: Hold my beer 🍺

4 times Russian "invincible" armies crumbled. 4 times regimes fell.

Now Putin faces the same deadly pattern:

Fascinating, I was there in 2021. It's strange to see how it looks now, after being occupied by russia and liberated. Just imagine, the russians stayed there in the radiation for weeks.

Well, as a Norwegian, I'm embarrassed. We give so little, we could easily afford to give ten times more. Easily. This is embarrassing. I feel ashamed. 😖

When the Russian government paper features headlines like “Panic attack for Russia’s currency market” you know there’s a problem. Today’s Russian papers focus on the falling rouble. One paper notes that “news from the currency markets resembled reports from a war zone.” #ReadingRussia
