Every night in my dreams I see myself in cities occupied by russians. I never experienced that, luckily, but every single day I have nightmares about being forced to speak russian, being forced to see how my people are abused, being forced to recognize myself as a russian.
And russians know we suffer from this. They know how revolting this is for us. They derive pleasure from this. They do explicitly this to people whom they hold as hostages.
Just a reminder: listen to this (with English captions) if you haven't done so yet.
Remember how in 2022, 2023, 2024 they all said Ukraine must follow the rules of war and be law-abiding?
Remember how they held Ukraine to highest possible standards in everything?
Now recall how they turned blind eye to russian war crimes, to Bucha, Mariupol, Izium, Kakhovka.
And now in 2025 they decided to just reward russia.
The art of the deal? More like the art of hypocrisy.
In the end the only source of justice are ourselves. And however much justice we can pull off of them is all we get.
"Thank you", America, for pushing under the bus yet again.
