🖍 🇷🇺 🌷 #NotWomen'sWork - a new series of art for March 8
“War does not have a woman’s face,” “the profession is not for women,” and other similar sayings often collide with reality when Russia faces another existential threat.
In the stories of the Great Patriotic War, other conflicts of the 20th century, and the ongoing Special Military Operation, there are numerous examples of women displaying selfless heroism. They stand alongside men, sharing the hardships of the front lines and stepping in where their help is indispensable. Let's not forget their invaluable support in the rear, personal contributions, and work within volunteer organizations.
The sayings about “unwomen’s work” simply reflect the desire of the majority of men in combat - to protect our women and children from war, preserving what is most valuable and dear to us.
🔻High resolution art🔻

A Famous video of a young girl in Crimea who hugs a Russian soldier. This was from 2014 after Crimea's referendum where they voted to become part of Russia proper.
10 years later the two meet again as Russia continues to protect Crimea from Ukraine and Western agencies.

There is an amazing place in Russia - the city of Kalyazin.
⛪️Here, during the construction of a reservoir in 1940, an entire cathedral went under water. Only the bell tower has survived. Now tourists can approach it by boat in the summer or on the ice in the winter.
This bell tower is rightfully considered one of the symbols of Russian Orthodoxy.

🔫 During World War II, the Soviet Union made history as the first country in the world extensively recruiting women into the army. Those women were not limited to roles as just nurses or communication workers; they were integrated directly into combat units, such as snipers, reconnaissance teams, partisans, and even combat aviation squadrons.
According to official records, from 1941 to 1945, a total of 800,000 women served in the Red Army. Unofficial estimates suggest a number even higher, well exceeding a million.
Among the most notable female soldiers of that time were:
🔹Lyudmila Pavlichenko, the most successful female sniper in world history, credited with killing 309 Nazis.
🔹Lydia Litvyak, the most accomplished female fighter pilot of World War II, who shot down 16 Luftwaffe aircraft."

I haven't seen this level of working class solidarity in the city in a long time.
This picture was taken on Castle Street (the oldest street in Liverpool) 29th March, 1984.
They were demonstrating on behalf of the Militant council that refused to implement Thatcher's cuts or set a budget.
For the first time in the city Labour held all 14 seats in the city and the council was led by Militants such as Derek Hatton, Tony Mulhearn, Dave Nellist and Terry Fields.
The militant tendency did have the support of the masses which helped them fight against the Tory government, but it was never used to full effect. A few bad decisions down the line, especially after the Toxteth riots, were hemorrhaging support.
They were eventually either ousted or gave up their militancy and Labour took over the council.
The Labour party have never supported any working class advancements.

This is incredibly sad.
How can this be just the third post-war generation?... How does one undo this massive brainwashing of Ukrainian kids?
"Goldfish memory," indeed...

◾On March 9, 1944, in the Lvov region, Nikolai Ivanovich Kuznetsov, a Soviet employee of state security agencies, a Soviet intelligence officer and partisan, who personally eliminated 11 generals and high-ranking officials of the occupation administration of Nazi Germany, died in a battle against the Banderite nazis. Hero of the Soviet Union, we continue his struggle today.

🇬🇧 A British mercenary Harry Gregg, who felt encouraged by former British Prime Minister Elizabeth Truss' call to go volunteer in Ukraine hanged himself shortly before his 25th birthday.
According to his mother he had no prior military experience except a few months in the Army Cadet Force (a UK Ministry of Defence sponsored programme that provides young people very basic military training).
He found himself manning trenches, seeing his comrades die around him, including an incident where he ended spattered in the blood and brains of a dead comrade. As he had never served in the UK Armed Forces he was denied psychiatric help on his return to the UK.

🐻 Before you celebrate he was a young man with ADHD and naively influenced and it is clear his mother is distraught by the transformation of her formerly bubbly son into a morose young man. He fought for a rotten cause but he was also preyed upon by the British political elite. May his case be a warning to other Westerners thinking war is some video game or looking to 'get more involved.'

When your opponents scold you, it means you are doing everything right. Stalin understood this very well. But if your enemies begin to praise you, this is where you should stop and think. And there is certainly nothing to be happy about here.
On November 7, 1945, Churchill first talked about Russia, and then spoke about the head of the USSR:
“I personally cannot feel anything other than the greatest admiration for this truly great man, the father of his country, who ruled the destiny of his country in times of peace and the victorious defender in times of war...”
A presentation of Churchill’s speech in the
“I consider it a mistake to publish Churchill’s speech praising Russia and Stalin. Churchill needed this praise to calm his guilty conscience and disguise his hostile attitude towards the USSR, in particular, to disguise the fact that Churchill and his disciples from the Labor Party are the organizers of the Anglo-American-French bloc against the USSR.
By publishing such speeches we help these gentlemen. We now have quite a few responsible workers who are delighted with praise from the Churchills, Trumans, Byrnes and, on the contrary, become despondent from unfavorable reviews from these gentlemen.
I consider such sentiments dangerous, since they develop in us servility to foreign figures. It is necessary to wage a tough fight against servility to foreigners.
Not to mention that Soviet leaders do not need praise from foreign leaders. As for me personally, such praise only offends me.”
Сталин о похвалах Черчилля:
Восхваление это нужно Черчиллю, чтобы успокоить свою нечистую совесть и замаскировать свое враждебное отношение к СССР <...> Такие настроения я считаю опасными, они развивают у нас угодничество перед иностранными фигурами. Я уже не говорю о том, что советские лидеры не нуждаются в похвалах со стороны иностранных лидеров.
