Apparently, “poor Russian conscripts” is another dream that Elon Musk shared with us. @avalaina's detailed breakdown here 👇
What “poor Russian conscripts” is he talking about? The Russian soldiers fighting against Ukraine serve under official contracts and are paid for it. Their salaries are funded in part by the extra money Putin is receiving as a result of Trump’s recent decisions to waive some of the sanctions on Russia. And now, something very important. Russia pretends to be “great,” yet it is a very poor country. Its entire economy is comparable in size to that of the U.S. state of Texas. Millions of Russians live in economically depressed regions. For them, signing a contract with the Russian army is often the only realistic path to social advancement, because it lets them earn the kind of money they could only have dreamed of in their impoverished home regions. The families of Russian soldiers killed in Ukraine are perfectly satisfied. They receive sums of money that their husbands or sons could never have earned, even if they had worked for the rest of their lives. That’s why our Russian human rights colleagues call this kind of economy a “necronomy,” meaning a “death economy.” Russia sells death. Literally. Yes, this bloody war must be stopped. And to stop it, we must make the cost of war for Putin higher than the cost of peace. So if Musk truly cares about the lives of Russian soldiers, America must break the Russian necronomy’s ability to fuel this bloody war. But the Trump administration has done exactly the opposite. America has begun to finance it. I am attaching to this post just a few examples of Russian state advertising, showing the amounts in rubles for which “Russian kids” go to kill Ukrainians.

Pretty humanitarian!
The outcome of the negotiations is a traditional Russian ballistic missile attack on Kyiv #Ukraine

Russia behaves like pure evil. If stopping Russia is not a good deed, then I don't know what is.
When people willfully close their eyes and ears because they do not want to see or hear the truth. They are living comfortable with their own lives and they don’t want their boat rocked, they have no desire to follow after Him: “And he said, “Go, and say to this people: “‘Keep on hearing, but do not understand; keep on seeing, but do not perceive.’ Make the heart of this people dull,
and their ears heavy,
and blind their eyes;
lest they see with their eyes,
and hear with their ears,
and understand with their hearts,
and turn and be healed.” (Isaiah 6:9-10, English Standard Version)

Russia hit an electricity facility in Kyiv just now. So much for Russian goodwill and “energy truce”

Basically a Dostoevsky plot. It's a mystery why people, having all the literature in the world, voluntarily choose to read and promote decadent and horrendous stories of Russian origin
Russian man Yakov Maiboroda KILLED his INFANT daughter, GROUND her up, then joined Russian army and got turned into a mincemeat himself This is NOT a joke. No amount of Ukrainian propaganda can make this shit up. Source below👇 #Rubizh

I wonder how bombing Russian data centers and oil refineries, which fund Russia’s war, will affect President Trump? Friendly advice: don't drink and tweet.

Jeez, they were all just bots 😅 Getting rid of just two Russian data centers made the global Internet safer and cleaner. Now it’s obvious who stood behind all of the hatred and malicious campaigns

Russia is leveling Ukrainian cities, starving people in Oleshky, killing entire families in one attack, but for some reason you won’t find tweets that Putin has gone too far.

Easing pressure on Russia only fuels Russia’s war.
Putin thanked Trump for easing restrictions on Russian fuel exports by killing 17 people in Zaporizhzhia, including three children. Every dollar Russia earns helps bankroll the Kremlin's war machine — more missiles, more drones, more terror against Ukrainians Easing pressure on Russia doesn't bring peace. It fuels the war.

Wondering where Russia will get petroleum for the US if it lacks it even for its own people. Russia doesn't deserve support, as it will betray you at the very first opportunity (and the Russian genocidal war against Ukraine, of course)

Lifting the sanctions on Russia's energy resources with no real consequences in case of violation is just giving Russians more money to produce weapons to kill Ukrainians

Russia is a freaking monster not a country
The russians murdered three one-year-old babies and two older children along with 13 adults in Pryluky last night. Absolutely horrifying. This is Sashko with his 37yo mom Kateryna and 58yo granny Viktoriya. F**ing russian monsters killed them.

This tiny baby's hand wrapped in a blanket. I am completely broken and devastated. I don't know what else the 'free world' needs to see. And I don't know how much of that 'freedom' is even left anymore.

Russia would do this in the rest of Europe if it weren't about the Ukrainian Armed Forces
Just one of the thousands of atrocities committed by Russians in Ukraine: On February 25, 2022, on the outskirts of Kyiv, near Hostomel, CCTV footage shows Russians murdering cars full of innocent civilians for fun. Just here, 11 people dead, and 14 wounded.

Fair question
If Iuliia Mendel claims to be pro-Ukraine, why is she hanging out with Tino Chrupalla, who calls for an end on sanctions against Russia, refuses to call Putin a war criminal, blames NATO for the invasion and attends a Victory Day celebration at the Russian embassy?

So, just for the record – Polish MFA Sikorski comes to Kyiv, says manipulative things like 'UPA aren't real heroes', replying to @ngumenyuk's question, and leaves the city intact. So much for Polish and Russian propaganda about extremists rising heads in Ukraine

Russia doesn’t want peace, only escalation
❗️Russia struck Ukraine’s border with Poland❗️ Trains were halted and passengers evacuated. Russian drone also hit a gas station near the key Yahodyn–Dorohusk border crossing, setting the station and nearby trucks on fire. Russia’s attacks the EU and NATO borders. Will there be a proper response, @NATO @EUCouncil?
