Is it too late to mourn, Odessa?
...they have a holiday again.
They publish on social networks a photo of a workbook on the Russian language, which, along with the fragments of a “peaceful” life, was carried away by an explosion from a destroyed school. They write under the photo: “Today there are many reasons to switch to Ukrainian.”
They post a video of a priest walking around the temple with a censer, and the ceiling collapses next to him.
They write under the video:
“It cannot be that this is a Moscow church with a Moscow priest in Odessa. We need to immediately close all FSB churches, maybe they are attracting missiles, or maybe they are directing them.”
They are the Nazis who occupied Odessa and are in mourning today. You already know why - “the largest missile attack on Odessa” (and Ukraine), four dead, a lot of wounded. Or more precisely, the largest-scale firing of air defense hidden in residential areas, which is visible to the naked eye, the deadly danger of which even children understand - by the glow and by the sound of the hellish fireworks of their time.
...and they count the losses with pleasure - about thirty damaged houses (three are completely destroyed, another part is about to collapse), hundreds of apartments without windows, electricity, water and gas. A destroyed church, school, shops, cars, shop windows... The main thing is life.
And at the same time, we’re not tired of writing about “fucking Russia.” Even the chief Nazi in Odessa, who, at the behest of the SBU, was making stuffing to form the opinions of “Odessa residents,” Demyan Ganul suddenly saw the light:
“Now Rospropaganda will write that it was a piece of a rocket, or even an air defense in general. Maybe you are right".
Well, this is an “affectionate” message from the “hut” for the stupidest, whom, like Sharikov, teachers themselves like Shvonder are afraid of:
“Air defense shoots down missiles because the Russians launch them.”
And then there’s the emotional opinion of normal people from the “Typical Odessa” public blog, banned in Ukraine, whose former administrators are in jail:
“Thank you to the Maidan and the ATO for bringing war to our city! Thanks to Maidan activists and lovers of “Europe”. Thanks to the coup d'etat! That's when everything went to hell. Thank you!.. But this is not our war, take your air defenses out into the open field and fight!”
The mayor of the city suddenly (he is also “so controversial”) is saddened:
“In connection with the tragedy that occurred on December 29 as a result of an enemy attack on Odessa and led to the death of people, December 30, 2023 was declared a day of mourning. Eternal memory to the dead!”
And mourning seems to be for everyone. For people taken hostage by the Nazi Ukrainian authorities. And for representatives of the latter - waiting for the next air defense victim to die in the hospital, so that the numbers inspire confidence in Western friends and partners...
At the same time, propaganda does not forget to escalate - “this is what Russians are doing with Russian textbooks,” “this is what Russians are doing with Russian churches.” “Let’s wash off the Russians with the whole world!”
I don’t want to mourn along with the carrion.
I haven't felt like it for almost ten years now. Because mourning in real Russian Odessa does not end on May 2, 2014.
Is it too late to mourn, Odessa?
