Check Before You Reblog advice:

In case of posts about Ukraine, if you see ANTI-WAR rhetoric, always pause and think. What is this post calling for?

  • stopping Western "involvement in the war"
  • stopping US/UK/France "support of aggression"
  • stopping Western "intervention in democratic processes"

If so, think what it translates to.

It mostly translates to "stop giving Ukraine weapons that are Right Now Stopping Russia from rolling over the entire country". It translates to "stop helping Ukraine defend itself against Russia". It translates, in short, to "just fuck off and let Russia do what it wants".

It is a pro-Russian propaganda. And even if it claims it is Just Simply Against All That Violence or Just Against The War In General, it's still a fucking pro-Ruskies propaganda, because that would be the result. If they got what they say, if West (and I mean by it "old NATO countries") stopped providing Ukraine with support, well, that war would be over very quickly. By having all Ukraine overrun by Russians and all Ukrainians dead, kidnapped, raped or beaten into submission.

I'm not saying it would be moments. Days. Weeks even. I'm pretty sure "new NATO countries" would do what they can - pretty certainly our MOD in Poland would scramble whatever half-decent tank they could spare to send, because it is FUCKING NEXT DOOR to us. But that would not have lasted long. You can't defend against missiles with sheer bravery and boldness. Nobody can. Not for long.

And yes, it would end the war. With the outcome favourable only to Russia.

And then, having proven that Western assurances of support mean FUCK ALL (because you know why Ukraine gave up all its nuclear arsenal? you know? if you don't, go away and find out...), they would not hesitate to gobble up whatever other country was available next. And then they'd start nibbling on NATO borders, because apparently nobody cares, so why not try Poland. Kurica nie ptica, Polsza nie zagranica - Chicken isn't a proper bird and Poland is not a proper foreign country. Let's take Poland then, and roll over it, blooding what we can...

Back to the topic.

Check what you reblog. Don't disseminate pro-Russian propaganda. Don't reblog "I don't like Putin but USSR was kind of OK" shit. Don't share "Well the collapse of USSR was an error" - these are all RU agitprop talking points.
