“They Came to ‘Liberate’ Us and Left Us with Nothing” – Life Under Russian Occupation in Ukraine

1. Eastern Europe, Baltic Countries and half of the Central Europe: Yes, we know.

2. The Russians liberated them from their possessions.

3. Wait a minute, no way a fascist dictatorship would ever spread lies and suffering to the general population. There’s absolutely no historical precedent for that

4. Russia has never fought for people’s freedom. Even in ww2, Russia began as the aggressor allied with Nazi Germany and ended up fighting to defend itself and keep what conquered territories it could. Russia’s entire national history is a similar stain on humanity.

5. Any occupation of another country has one, and only one, goal: To drain and redistribute wealth to the primary country. All other explanations are smoke and mirrors. Remember that even if the soldiers and the people feel it’s about religion, principle or even liberation – it’s the brass that makes the decisions, and for them it’s just about funneling wealth. It always has been and whether it’s colonizing Mars or purchasing another corporation, it will always remain that way.

6. That’s the standard way of how they liberate people

7. Russia Nazis… glad all these information will be documented so we can add them in our history classes and teach people of what Russia did in Ukraine so they will not be able to erase anything, Italy 🇮🇹

8. Peak russian experience 

9. Why is “liberate” in the quote marks if the whole quote is in the quote marks?

10. Everyone east of Germany is probably aware that this is the norm from Russia.

11. They didn’t lie, they liberated you from everything.
