Another brilliant way to fight off the guilt of enjoying life (sometimes, not too often pls) is to donation-match! When I spend money on #MagicTheGathering, I donate as much to particular brigades and sometimes batallions in #UAF.
Finally, there is #stopify, if you're more into "fire-and-forget" mode of supporting #Ukraine: https://stopify.org.ua/
It's okay to have fun as long as you have #Ukraine in your heart.
It's infinitely easier for us than for them, but we too have to take care of our determination and moral strength to stay angry and DO SOMETHING FOR VICTORY EVERY DAY.

"The Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar has for years overseen a secret police force in Gaza that conducted surveillance on everyday Palestinians and built files on young people, journalists and those who questioned the government..."

I think that in the East being #leftist means being an advocate for social justice and better life for all. Because we have seen how quickly dictatorship of the proletariat turns into dictatorship of the central committee of the communist party. (Spolier: the time needed is negative!)
In the West being #leftist means trying to apply dubious ideas dreamt of by
- a 19th century thinker, which could have worked in 19th century perhaps,
- in 20th century
to 21st century, while being guided by parties backed by the state actors.
I know that fighting against state actors for "the minds of the youth" is a very unyielding job, so just accepting that in the West the #left thought has not evolved beyond "means of production go brr" is the best way to approach this sorry left-left dichotomy.
Okay, this person doesn't deserve my time, but one last observation about modern #American #leftists being #imperialist.
This person implies that the USA somehow is bijective with the use of English language. It isn't.
You brainless piece of shit x10.
Oh my, why are lefties such human trash!
Imagine calling a Latvian who is traumatised by the mass deportations and killing of Latvians "bigoted".
It's more or less like telling a black person from South Africa that they are bigoted for being traumatised by apartheid or an #Uyghur person being traumatised by Chinese occupation and "reeducation" camps.
It's also funny how imperialist they are! Every conversation degrades into #USPol. Guess what, not everyone cares about USPol beyond the presidential elections.
You brainless piece of shit.
Before coming to the Western countries, I was very strongly #left.
I assumed that the #leftists in the West have paid attention to cold war.
I beg you, if you're westerner and you aren't sure about how did the 50s, 60s and 70s went in your country, watch this fifty second clip!

As a #queer person, I'm getting even more upset about interactions like this.
So many queer people are brainwashed by russian-iran-chinese propaganda beyond being possible to be reasoned with (it's kinda of like conspiratorial thinking).
I guess it makes sense that malevolent actors target strong marginalised groups though, so gotta try to win back some minds where possible...
If you're interested in how exactly this subvesrsion of margnialised groups works, spend an hour of your life watching #Bezmenov's account[1]. If you don't have the time, only watch the clip[2].
