Russians murdered this little boy today. Don't look away.

Lesson 1: Do not obey in advance. Thread of lessons from my book #OnTyranny. Written in 2016.

Can anyone explain how we’re supposed to bear hearing about Ukrainian children pulled from the rubble of their homes? And what kind of negotiations can we even discuss when Putin’s “position of strength” means killing more defenseless people?

There is nothing more terrible than war, and we, Ukrainians, those who stayed in our homes, know this for sure, not from the news. Odesa, a strike on a residential building after sunset.

The Ukrainians have lost the ability to detect the approach of Russian bombers and other warplanes as they take off inside Russia. As a result, Ukraine has less time to warn civilians and military personnel about an approaching airstrike or missile. x.com/juliadavisnews…
