EVEN IF THE WORLD HAS TO POINT EVERY SINGLE NUCLEAR WEPON, ON EARTH, AT HIS HEAD! TO DISAMATE HIS GENETIC MATERIAL! FROM THE FACE OF THE EARTH!
- toloco 5y agoPlease help the Ukrainian army
- Klaster_1 5y agoWhat are monetary options to support Ukraine from inside the russia besides donating to international refugee efforts?

- dharmab 5y agoAre donations to the Ukrainian Red Cross possible?
- morelisp 5y agohttps://redcross.org.ua/donate/ https://redcross.org.ua/donate/ but it seems to be under heavy load and not reliable at the moment. https://www.icrc.org/en/donate/ukraine https://www.icrc.org/en/donate/ukraine is also available.
- throwaway4good 5y agoSo if Ukraine falls, what will happen to these funds?
- vincentmarle 5y agoJust contact customer service they’ll refund you within 5 business days…
- drran 5y agoIt's a wire transfer, not a physical. Numbers will be reset.
- bsd44 5y ago
- tlarkworthy 5y ago>as is the case with any charity it's not a charity, its on a .gov.ua website and its the national bank. This is going to the gov/military.
- cbg0 5y ago> as is the case with any charity in times of crisis This is a very tinfoil-hat generalization.
- bsd44 5y agoIt's more likely that you are being naive, to be politically correct. There hasn't been a single time of crisis in the recorded history where donations hadn't been stolen (and sometimes victims even being abused and exploited). From earthquakes, tsunamis, famine, wars...none of the campaigns went without an incident. Ukraine is receiving military support from the entire NATO sphere. They can't shoot with your donations and they can't make any purchases either, so guess where the money is likely to end up. That's why I said if you want to donate then do so, but don't ask where the money is going because if you do that you won't donate ever again.

- karol 5y agoWhy would anyone send money to a foreign country army? You elect your politicians to do that for you using taxes.
- deleted 5y ago[deleted]
- cbg0 5y agoWhat you elect your politicians to do and what they do are often not overlapping. Regular people are driving to the border here in Romania to help out refugees and donate food/clothing/medicine because the government isn't doing enough. Everyone is free to choose if and how they want to help (or not).
- actuator 5y agoMaybe you think your goverment should be doing more than it is. For instance, we don't know if Germans were really happy that their country wasn't even onboard supplying arms to Ukraine till yesterday. Hiroshi Mikitani, founder of Rakuten gave $8.7 million to Ukraine. Maybe he thought his government is not doing enough. So, even ordinary citizens might feel the same.
- schroeding 5y agoGerman here: Yes, not happy, quite furious, sent them a bit of money via bitcoin. Not only has Germany not supplied weapons until yesterday, it has even prevented other NATO countries from sending them weapons that they received from Germany in the 1990s. Thankfully our government finally caved in yesterday.
- novaRom 5y agoWhat can happen if this monster will start loosing? I fear very much he will not hesitate to press the red button. It is foolish to think he is not ready, just listen what he said about nuclear weapons before. Now, totally isolated, with destroyed economy, without people's support anymore.

- drran 5y ago@dang, can you update the link, please?
- xchaotic 5y agoI have a bit of a problem donating directly to the army. I understand the need to defend but it does end with deaths and bloodshed. I ‘avoid’ the problem by donating to medical supplies as well as simple food stuff for people in Ukraine. We also plan to shelter a Ukrainian family in our house once they get here (we live in Poland)
- throwaway290 5y agoIt is understandable. I personally choose to donate to UNHCR's Ukraine emergency program (https://giving.unhcr.org/en/ukraine/ https://giving.unhcr.org/en/ukraine/) while I still have access to my finances. I have a friend with family who has escaped from around Lviv to Poland Thursday (so they are already in the country). They should have finances to pay for themselves, but asked him just in case.
- vsnf 5y agoThis is an interesting dilemma I've seen on multiple occasions and resulting in almost the exact same position. Many people who work in defense industries, plenty of my former colleagues among them, choose to go into medical tech and other healthcare adjacent fields, either as penance for damage caused, or because it's a less morally grey but still objectively useful way to apply their skills.
- LoveMortuus 5y agoI too have a problem with donating to any army. Especially if you look at money and a tool for motivation or a tool for voting. Like it's often said vote with your wallet. From those aspects giving money to any army means you want more of what they're doing and while armies do help in natural disasters their primary purpose generally results in deaths of people. Thus in a way you're motivating and voting for more deaths... I know that many it not most don't look at money like that, but I do, which is why this frightens me.
- simonh 5y agoIf anyone ever comes to overthrow your government, bomb your home and kill your family I hope somebody, somewhere is willing to take up arms and fight to protect you.
- thejackgoode 5y agoBitcoin is an option via “Повернись живим” fund. This stuff goes directly to defenders ASAP. They focus on more high tech things like drones and thermal vision. You can find requisites and statements since 2014 here: https://savelife.in.ua/en/donate/ https://savelife.in.ua/en/donate/
- tenuousemphasis 5y agoThe Ukrainian government is also accepting donations via Bitcoin directly. https://twitter.com/Ukraine/status/1497594592438497282 https://twitter.com/Ukraine/status/1497594592438497282
- drran 5y agoPlease, post link to the official site. Twitter is not an official site, it's full of scam.
- iudqnolq 5y agoTwitter.com/Ukraine is official.
- thejackgoode 5y agoThank you. At the moment they are all connected and cooperating very tightly, so any option is good
- hifi 5y agoThanks for the link - just sent 1500 euro! Doesn't matter if it helps or not but the message to Russia should be clear: this is NOT ok and the rest of the world won't tolerate this!
- zttg 5y ago
- krzyk 5y agoWhy support invaders (Russians)? It is just like you would donate to Hitler in September of 1939.
- supergirl 5y agojust like my tax money was used to invade iraq and syria
- d0mine 5y ago
- rmind 5y agoWar in Donbas was orchestrated and fueled by Moscow, with covert militants coming and running it from Russia. Please.. read at least some basic literature with plenty of supporting references (by international organizations, such as the United Nations, OSCE, etc) on this subject: * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_Russian_invasion_of_Ukraine#Background https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_Russian_invasion_of_Ukrai... * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disinformation_in_the_2021%E2%80%932022_Russo-Ukrainian_crisis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disinformation_in_the_2021%E2%...
- krzyk 5y agoSorry, I didn't know Kiev is in Donbas.
- sofixa 5y agoIf the people there who want to secede, a referendum, not war sponsored by Russia is the answer.
- zttg 5y ago
- 5y ago
- FartyMcFarter 5y agoI wouldn't have a problem with my country using tax money to defend Ukraine militarily, so I decided to donate as the next best thing. 1000 € sent.
- quickthrower2 5y agoIs there any cyber security risk here? Could Russia get control if that site and change the account numbers to something else? Feels a bit shot in the dark.
- 5e92cb50239222b 5y agoAlways look up the account number before sending anything. You can find the number that's published there in many more sources.
- Merem 5y ago
- snovv_crash 5y agoAnd yet they have a Jewish president and a Jewish prime minister. Perhaps this group is not representative of Ukraine as a whole?
- Merem 5y agoJews also fought for Hitler during WW II, so I don't exactly see your point. Additionally, considering Ukraine enacted a language law in 2019 and a racial law in 2021 and that specific group is part of the National Guard, it should give you something to think about.
- sofixa 5y ago> Jews also fought for Hitler during WW II, so I don't exactly see your point I'm going to have to ask for a source here. Jews formed ghetto polices, and Sonderkommando units, that's true. But that was done under duress in terrible circumstances, and certainly isn't "fighting".
- Merem 5y ago"Hitler's Jewish Soldiers: The Untold Story of Nazi Racial Laws and Men of Jewish Descent in the German Military" by Bryan Mark Rigg. Googling, there is also an interesting article here: https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/arts-letters/articles/ellen-feldman-nazi-germany https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/arts-letters/articles/ell...
- snovv_crash 5y agoThe whole article is about how conflicted these people were. Also, the details of what was happening to the Jews only surfaced at the end of the war. Before that Hitler was peddling stories of shipping them off to an island on the Bahamas, and broad public antisemitism wasn't limited to Germany in the 1930s, so a lot of people were fine with this.
- anf0 5y agoHow do I volunteer to provide shelter to Ukrainian refugees? I have three unused bedrooms.
- rosndo 5y agoWhere are you located?
- usr1106 5y agoDepends on the country. There might be visa requirements to enter it. Ukrainian citizens are no longer allowed to leave freely. Men are not allowed to leave, that seems to be confirmed. According to some sources women working in certain sectors like health care either, not sure whether that is confirmed.
- broodbucket 5y agoAre Polish border guards actually turning back each and every 18-60 male Ukrainian fleeing for their lives? I have no clue, but I wouldn't be surprised if the reality differed from the policy here
- azernik 5y agoThe ban on draftable men leaving is a Ukrainian rule, not a Polish one.
- broodbucket 5y agoI know, my question was whether Poles would enforce this rule.
- azernik 5y agoNo
- izik 5y agoFrom what I heard, there are exceptions (father is the only parent, medical reason,…)
- xupybd 5y agoI feel like I should support Ukraine. I don't like the idea of foreign invaders. But if I'm honest I know very little about this conflict. I know historically the Soviet union was probably worse to it's own citizens than the Nazis were to theirs. So I'm pretty sure Russia is the bad guy. But how do you all know they are? Where do I learn more that isn't some pre-digested media message? Lately I've been let down by media narratives finding out they're often over hyped versions of the truth the leave out any nuance so I don't trust what I'm hearing on the news.
- earthbee 5y agoIt's easier than ever to find out about the world via channels outside of the media. Spend some time on twitter, telegram, youtube, etc. and you can see and hear what's going on directly.
- krisoft 5y ago> But how do you all know they are? When someone attacks someone else the heavy burden to prove that they are right, just, and doing things to benefit the people is on the attacker. You can go to the primary sources comming straight from the mouth of Putin and Russia and decide for yourself if in your opinion they met this burden.
- xupybd 5y agoWestern TV isn't explaining Putin's motivation very well. Only that it's bad that he is. RT is claiming it's not an invasion but a short term special operation to remove neo Nazis from Ukraine. I don't trust the RT version but am far too ignorant to trust my own judgement. I honestly have no idea what is really going on.
- ithkuil 5y ago> RT is claiming it's not an invasion but a short term special operation to remove neo Nazis from Ukraine. At some point you have to trust your guts and decide how likely it is that Ukraine is run by neo Nazis. For example watch https://t.co/WoMOgqXTWX https://t.co/WoMOgqXTWX and judge if this is the way a neo nazi would talk
- okasaki 5y agoWell, this is definitely peak insanity.
- Nemrod67 5y agodoesn't seem to stop most people it seems, what a strange new world Canadian truckers are not fit to receive money but yeh, give directly to the Ukrainian Army...
- scotty79 5y agoI wonder what part you missed since you find this strange and you find those two cases even remotely comparable.
- bitcharmer 5y agoWow, so you don't see any difference between man-babies protesting having to wear a piece of cloth on their faces and literal aggression by a foreign power?
- prennert 5y agoI was wondering wow direct are these donations going straight to the army vs the Ukrainian state? The state will need a lot of money (especially foreign) to keep everyone fed and to rebuild. Especially if things go much worse. Obviously the state will give a lot of money to army now, but I guess mostly for the same things. Getting supplies and keeping logistics up.
- modernpink 5y agoInteresting that they list CNY but not NTD.
