As an African American screw you Ukraine and Poland.


Nothing bad to say about Russia, of course.


+2 imbecile troll


Nope. I give no fs about Russia either. -op


Given that a country is being attacked by a dominant power and millions of lives are in peril it’s idiotic to focus on some minor grievance. Go away.


These are not minor grievances and if the people in power in my country don’t listen to me they can enjoy their next 4 years of trump.
Black people minor grievances. Who.


Ukraine isn't our issue either so why should I care about their minor issues? Idiot?


This can lead to WW3 idiot.

The US also gave a security guarantee to Ukraine in 1995 in return for their giving up nukes. It’s our business to be there, idiot.


So.iif it's this fire and grave situation all people should be evacuated as quickly as possible and not noriorirized based on skin color righ


JFC give it a rest…..nobody cares about your idiotic grievance.

I think the Russian propaganda point made in the tweet is an important one to keep in mind. I am not saying these accounts are false, but that I would reserve judgment until there has been some kind of investigation beyond “here is an anecdote from one random person with an edited snippet of a video.”


It's not just one tweet. But keep thinking as you do and ignoring things because the media doesn't want you to care about it yet


You are missing the point. I am not denying that they are denying people passage at refugee processing areas. What we don’t know is whether they are doing the same to white non-Ukrainian people, or if only non-white non-Ukrainian people are being denied passage.

An awful lot of Republican/right-wing Americans are already on Putin’s side in this. If Russia wants to really turn US public sentiment, they have to target the American left. One really effective way to turn the American left against someone is to accuse them of racism. It would make perfect sense as a social media strategy for Russia here.

Again, I am not saying this is untrue. I am simply saying that we should reserve judgement until the claims have been substantiated through an investigation rather than potentially falling for Russia propaganda.

The US refused its own citizens who misplaced their passports during the Wuhan evacuation. They were left behind. So did the UK.

Do we know if people of far flung countries have proper visas to enter Ukraine’s neighboring countries?

Is the west obligated to take them? Especially now, when they are dealing with actual war refugees?

Why aren't these mostly young and able-bodied people trying to make their own countries a better place?


So ignorant. Some are students.


Some are not.

It's interesting how now it's okay to prioritize " citizens" for some of you.

Ukraine has a long and documented history of racism that doesn't change because Putin is being a jackass.

Any man between the age of 16 and 60 cannot legally leave the country
Those foreign students you posted pictures about earlier were men. They must do their duty and join the army and fight if need be


I do believe it is against the law to firce a non citizen to fight for byiur country. Not to mention all the potential problems that could create.

You'll have to try again to justify this.


I am sure Russian border is open.


The country is at war, men cannot legally leave. They are legal residents, not tourists

Nigeria is also complaining of similar treatment of their students so they sent representatives from their Polish embassy to the boarder crossing to help.

This is from tvdefrance for which you need a paid subscription to stream and it is also only in French.


So the problem appears to be Poland, not the Ukraine. Poland does not let them in

OP, do you know the legal/passport/visa status of these students? During the Wuhan evacuation, a British woman was told to evacuate but leave her 3-year-old child behind because the child did not have a UK passport.

We are looking at WW3 with Putin doubling down on nuke threats.
All you care about is some people getting their free rides?
Have you no honor?
Have you no shame?

No you don't. Ukrainians are fighting for their lives. Men cannot leave the country. And here you are whining that Black men living in the Ukraine aren't being let out fast enough.

Ukrainian men! Get your facts straight.

This thread is about the unequal treatment of foreigners trying to evacuate. Take your hate and racist views to a different thread.
