To highlight the absurdity of Putin propaganda, here is a small sarcastic pun on daily routines of a ‘Maydan extremist’. Last morning I woke up in my extremist bed, brushed my fascist teeth, had a cup of Lviv coffee made of grinded Georgian ribbons* and went for work to a Banderist** gestapo; for lunch, out of the blue I severely beat a harmless policeman who was collecting wildflowers at the side of the road***; on my way home I painted all synagogues in the neighborhood with swastikas**** and trampled with my bloody shoe tender sprouts of Slavic unity*****; then I ate my dinner reciting ‘destroy all the Moscals’******, turned on my radical TV and watched the gay parade in Berlin*******, kissed the portrait of Roman Shukhevych******** and went to bed. Just another regular day. *The Ribbon of St George or St. Georges Ribbon constitutes one of the most recognized symbols of military valor in modern Russia. Its origins lay back in the times of the Russian Empire. **Banderist movement was a consolidation of anti-Soviet Ukrainian rebels who fought for freedom and relief from continuous forced Russian influence. ***Pro-Putin press claims that during the protests in Kyiv (where peaceful protesters were repeatedly beaten in the most ferocious manner by special police units, more than 100 people were killed, among them university professors, students, journalists, young boys under 18, elderly people, etc. etc. etc., and still many are missing; see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_people_killed_during_Euromaidan), the ‘violent protesters’, ‘extremists’, ‘Nazis’, ‘fascists’, ‘terrorists’ and ‘Banderists’ from Maydan hurt the guys from police (in mysterious ways they must’ve done it! I mean, seriously, unarmed, untrained peaceful citizens would just attack the police and cause them actual harm? Seriously?? Come on!) ****Again, according to pro-Putin media, all the people anyhow involved in Maydan are identified as ‘extremists’, ‘Nazis’, ‘fascists’, ‘terrorists’ and ‘Banderists’. Just to give you a little hint - that would be almost the entire population of Ukraine. Including all of my friends and me because yes, I support the revolution with every beat of my heart and I don’t want any Russian armies on my land or any pro-Putin bandits in the government of my country. *****That’s one of their key points. Some ridiculous mystical ‘Slavic unity’ because of which we’d have to rejoice at constant Putin’s intrusion into Ukrainian politics and now also our legitimate territory, Crimea. Seriously, it’s all they’ve got. Slavic unity. Can it be any more ludicrous? I think, it’s such claims that look extremist, not the people who want to live in their country and have a decent government. ******Moscal – according to Putin propaganda, an offensive word that means a person of Russian nationality. Completely untrue and gets me thinking – if all a politician builds his policy on is some stupid play on words and the ‘they call us names’ line, then… what does this make him? Anyway, supposedly, that’s what we Ukrainians do here. Desperately hate all the Russians and dream of eliminating them from the face of earth. That’s what Russian media feed to people and that’s what some people buy. Truly sad. I’d just advice all those ‘Moscals’ to come visit Lviv and see for themselves what things really are. They wouldn’t be any more ‘unwelcome’ here as they would be in Berlin, for example, or Warsaw, or Washington, or any other city of the world. Seriously, if you don’t like to travel and prefer to sit around and think that some people on the other part of the globe hate you, - just relax and stay home. No need to wrack anyone’s brains or spread invalid information. *******A popular argument used by the former bandit government (which we partially got rid of, so yey) was that if Ukraine joined the EU, we’d suddenly become infected with the screaming European lack of morality and have terrifying gay parades all over the country. ******** Roman Shukhevych – according to pro-Putin propaganda, the scariest of all ‘Banderist’, ‘nazis’, ‘terrorists’ and ‘extremists’, an icon of every Ukrainian ‘fascist’. The man has been dead for more than 60 years now.
