If you speak Russian, call Russia and tell them what is happening in Ukraine

Russia continues to torture civilians and shell humanitarian corridors, breaking earlier commitments to let civilians to evacuate from war-torn cities. Ukraine is begging NATO to close the skies over the country or at least to provide more air defense systems. There is a humanitarian disaster in the Kyiv suburbs. We continue our “Explaining Ukraine” podcast by sharing our analysis of the Russian invasion and Ukrainian resistance. Hosts: Volodymyr Yermolenko, analytics director at Internews Ukraine, and Tetyana Ogarkova, in charge of international outreach at the Ukraine Crisis Media Centre.

I wonder what happens if the caller on the other side replies with the famous universal-fake-news-one-upper:

"What, you really believe Ukraine exists ? Wake up, sheeple !!"

If only someone was there, able to take pictures and report on it! You know, like all the news organizations across the world. Or refugees were streaming out of the area with horror stories. And satellite pictures and spy planes showed Russian troop movements. And the tyrant of Russia even said he was sending troops into another sovereign country, while contextualizing it under an obviously false narrative (that would imply the democratically elected ethnically Jewish president of Ukraine was a neo-nazi), and threatening a nuclear response to any armed involvement by other countries.

Oh if only.

Get out of here with however many worthless rubles you're getting paid.

Also, try to reach out to fellow technology professionals inside Russia and help them to find a way to get out.

One possibility is to evacuate through Armenia or drive to Finland.

What they're doing is quite medieval. They're encircling cities, cutting them off, then shelling them into oblivion, cutting off food and resources. Literally a modern day Roman siege.

Well at least you didn’t call it the fog of a “special military operation”
