Інструкція для українського народу в післявоєнний час:
– Не обирай тих, хто вже зраджував.
– Не вір у нові обличчя без нових вчинків.
– Не ведись на телевізор.
– Не прощай заради стабільності — зрада не лікується.
– Демократія ≠ індульгенція для могильників.

Кодекс післякатастрофного електорального самозахисту:

– Не вір у нові обличчя без нових вчинків.
– Не ведись на телевізор.
– Не прощай заради стабільності — зрада не лікується.

@KarlMarxFan17 Let me guess - for some convenient reason, your logic does NOT apply to russians from impoverished regions dying for putins's estates and wealth?

[🆃🆁🅰🅽🆂🅻🅰🆃🅾🆁🅽 @translattorn]

@The_Davos_Man I wonder... if these people got transported back in time to WW2... how likely would it be that they would have joined the Vlasov Army?

[🆃🆁🅰🅽🆂🅻🅰🆃🅾🆁🅽 @translattorn]

Believe it or not, but the concept of "reputation" and "public dignity" exists in Ukraine and ither European countries.

You, the Chinese, and the Japanese, are not as deep and culturally superior as you think you are.

[Anna-Maria Żukowska 💁🏻‍♀️ @AM_Zukowska]

Ukraińcy chyba nie zdają sobie sprawy z tego jak ważne jest w kulturze azjatyckiej zachowanie tzw. twarzy. W Europie, w tym w Polsce wszyscy politycy przerzucają się wzajemnie oskarżeniami o kłamstwa i nikt tego jakoś bardzo nie przeżywa, natomiast w Korei publiczne zarzucenie komuś kłamstwa to jest potworna potwarz, kwestionowanie dobrej reputacji, a publiczne znieważenie głowy państwa oznacza automatycznie znieważenie wszystkich Koreańczyków.

→ "cultural appropriation is not real, and you can't dictate how people view and engage with culture"

→ "there's no reason to consider that *insert historical persona* was Ukrainian; after all they lived in the russian empire!"

[Kimiya 🇵🇸🇺🇦 @OnlySkyKimi]

Cultural appropriation is a nativist backward idea and hand downs the worst idea considered "woke". No, people can't and shouldn't dictate how others engage with the ideas of their culture. Cultural exchange and adaptation and updates are good.

I'll stop using "y'all" when Y'ALL stop using the stupid fucking Faux Cyrillic as a generalized reference to "slavic people".

[hoshi🇬🇪 @hoshi_aa]

I'll stop using "y'all" when Y'ALL stop using Georgian letters as decorations ყლეო

@akhivae European countries don't "declare" anything to be traditional. These people are performers, therefore they have monotypic outfits.

Nobody's obligated to wear embroidered shirts outside on the Vyshyvanka Day in Ukraine, it's purely voluntary.

[🆃🆁🅰🅽🆂🅻🅰🆃🅾🆁🅽 @translattorn]

My sweet summer child, when was the last time you interacted with russians?

Are you not aware of the sheer amount of russian books being printed in the West thanks to the russian state lobbying?

[🆃🆁🅰🅽🆂🅻🅰🆃🅾🆁🅽 @translattorn]

@ChuvydlaFirst Ну жди. До второго пришествия xD

[🆃🆁🅰🅽🆂🅻🅰🆃🅾🆁🅽 @translattorn]

@SebMilbank "Kyiv" pronounced "kee-eev"

Not how it's supposed to be pronounced. The first sentence of your tweet, and you're already off course.

Ukrainian pronunciation Київ also existed for centuries. Do you want to play the "who's older" mental gymnastics?

[🆃🆁🅰🅽🆂🅻🅰🆃🅾🆁🅽 @translattorn]

@jaddeyekabir @MSugma71483 It's incredibly easy to scoff at nation states, when you live in New York, USA - an extremely well defended country, the nation of which was never threatened with eradication or cultural/linguistic erasure.

[🆃🆁🅰🅽🆂🅻🅰🆃🅾🆁🅽 @translattorn]

@Daimmey @MSugma71483 "Overrated" is your subjective opinion.
"Modern" they aren't. They are a 21st century replica of what people wore in the 19th century... because that's when traditional clothing stopped evolving (due to industrialization and globalization).

[🆃🆁🅰🅽🆂🅻🅰🆃🅾🆁🅽 @translattorn]

Please answer one simple question:

Has Spain ever tried, on the state ideological level, to appropriate the history of London and England in general, or claimed that saying "London" is "Nazism", "revisionism", "denial of history"?

Because russia is doing all of this.

[Iain Cameron @theiaincameron]

And countries themselves use exonyms constantly.

Germans say Frankreich, not France. Italians say Germania, not Deutschland. Spaniards say Londres, not London. The Japanese say Igirisu for Britain.

This is normal linguistic behaviour, not diplomatic aggression.

@AgeOfSecrecy Would you be meowing the same thing, had Ukraine attacked russia's academy of science?

[🆃🆁🅰🅽🆂🅻🅰🆃🅾🆁🅽 @translattorn]

@meponqocoqueta Not to mention that some of them refuse to even understand the simple reason why Kyiv is spelled that way.

[🆃🆁🅰🅽🆂🅻🅰🆃🅾🆁🅽 @translattorn]

@JSONmaxxing To write 15 research papers in a row in a random journal behind a paywall... Or to write and publish a structured 400ish-page book?

[🆃🆁🅰🅽🆂🅻🅰🆃🅾🆁🅽 @translattorn]

@JSONmaxxing "book as a format is completely archaic"

Pal, riddle me this. What, in your opinion, is more sensible for, say, an academic historian to do when creating a comprehensive literary scientific analysis of a specific historical topic ↓

[🆃🆁🅰🅽🆂🅻🅰🆃🅾🆁🅽 @translattorn]

@slimygirlholes Explain to these people that all spelling and writing is inherently made up, and changes constantly because the speakers of language... just decide to change it overtime.

[🆃🆁🅰🅽🆂🅻🅰🆃🅾🆁🅽 @translattorn]

@pnwqol @After__History The first statement is baseless, the second is objectively false.

[🆃🆁🅰🅽🆂🅻🅰🆃🅾🆁🅽 @translattorn]

I mean, I did guess these were biblical scenes, simply because of the names written above the people.

I'm surprised that some Slavophiles hadn't already claimed this book as "ancient Slavic literature", given how similar the writing is to Cyrillic.

[Alexander Thatcher @ThatchEffendi]

Something I find funny about the people who argue there's not meaningful continuity between Ancient Greece and Modern Greece is that Byzantine culture was obsessively Hellenizing, especially after the Macedonian Renaissance gets started.

Several pages from the 10th century Paris Psalter look like this, you wouldn't even guess these are Biblical scenes.
