People, I’ve got to say – I have always taken happiness in seeing the Freeperati go at each other, especially post-Darnold, where the True Believers and the pragmatists get their circular firing squad on, but this?
This is something completely different.
Video of Ukrainian woman confronting Russian soldier goes viral: Put sunflower seeds in your pocket ‘so at least [flowers] will grow’ when you’re killed

A fiery Ukrainian women went viral for her reaction to a Russian soldier patrolling a Ukrainian street earlier this week.
What are the details? The unnamed woman — dressed in nearly all black and wearing a white winter hat — was seen in a video shared to social media telling off a Russian soldier and suggesting he carry sunflower seeds in his pockets — so that when he is killed on foreign soil, flowers will sprout from his decomposing body.
“Put them in your pockets,” she stoically told the soldier during one point of the interaction, “so at least sunflowers will grow when you all lie down here.”
The sunflower, which is Ukraine’s national flower, is often said to represent power, strength, warmth, and more.
Elsewhere in the video, the woman could be heard telling the soldier, “You’re occupants, you’re fascists! What the f*** are you doing on our land with all these guns?”
She added, “From this moment, you are cursed. I’m telling you. You f***ing came here uninvited.”
“Pieces of s**t,” she concluded.
Now, you know that the “it’s not our fight/Putin’s a great guy” types, conditioned by four years plus of Trumpism, are going to try to downplay Putin’s Hitler impersonation. (My fave blogger Shower Cap called Putin “Underpants Gnome Mussolini”)
.
You also know they’re going to get some pushback from the Freepers who have had about enough of The Darnold and his dictator pals.
Right?

Should the soldier be there? No.
But he was actually restrained and polite.
He restrained himself from shooting her in front of a bunch of witnesses recording on their phones.
He’ll politely be rounding her up when there are no witnesses around.
Bravery? Meh.

She is lucky the Russian soldier she spoke to chose to treat her like a fussy old Grandma. He may have known at least one person was filming the interaction.
If there were no cameras rolling and you had a more combative type of soldier, she could have gotten rifle-butted in the head or much worse.

Yeah! How DARE she?? (I’m assuming “much worse” means raping her. He’ll get around to that later)
AND THEN...

Well Putin is a smart genius, so this soldier clearly has nothing to worry about.

Oh but we have people on here that say that country belongs to Russia because they looked at a map or something. Wake up and stand up.

I guess if foreign soldiers occupied your street, you would be bringing them lunch.

Don’t hide behind bs. I don’t tolerate anyone who kisses Russian or Chinese thugs, anymore than I tolerate scumbad American leftists.
Death to Putin and long live that Ukrainian hero.

You will note their interaction was in Russian/Ukrainian. Even the specific cultural references were understood by each other just fine. Did you understand them?
Many people here do not have a CLUE about the cultural, historical, religious similarities of these people – but if Biden and the MSM shout “PUTIN!” and “WAR” they are ready to charge off.
I’ve listened to such lies about Trump, Russia, Ukraine, etc… for at least 5 years. I’m tired of being lied to, so I judge everything US MSM, Fed.gov, foreign media, and social media say with great skepticism.

I guess all of that live bombardment/rocket attack footage was shot on a soundstage in Burbank, amirite?
To: PGR88
Oh you mean we could invade England because both countries speak English?
I’ve known Ukrainians for decades and they hate Russia and Russians with a white hot hatred.
If they loved each other so much they wouldn’t be under attack with tanks aircraft missiles and everything else in the Russian Arsenal. Use some common sense for God’s sake.

My late grandmother was Ukrainian and I have relatives in Kiev. Maybe the Slavs all look the same to you, but I can assure you Ukrainians don’t want to be ruled by Russia any more than you want to be ruled by Mexico.

“I’ve known Ukrainians for decades and they hate Russia and Russians with a white hot hatred.”
Absolutely true. Some people here seem to believe that Ukrainians and Russians loved each other until the Western media/governments turned them against each other. The hatred and resentment goes back many generations.

Very true!
I’m pretty well intrenched in the Romanian community as well (lived there for 6 months over 20 years ago). They cannot stand Russia or Russians either, for the same reasons. They also view Moldovans with high levels of skepticism due to the whole Trans-Dniester issue.
Putin’s ‘dream’ of reviving the old Soviet Union will never happen.
It gets worse after that.
