„Russophobie“ trendet wieder, obwohl Russland täglich ukrainische Städte beschießt & Menschen im Schlaf ermordet. Wahrscheinlich muss man das als Gradmesser für die Lebendigkeit des russischen Imperialismus nehmen, denn der Begriff findet sich va. in nationalistischen Texten.🧵 ImageImage
Der Begriff „Russophobie" oder „Antirussisch“ wird in stalinistischer Zeit gerne verwendet, um den Widerstand kleiner Völker und anderer Nationen zu brechen. Nobelpreisträger Czesław Miłosz' lässt hier 1953 eine solche stalinistische Stimme zu Wort kommen, um sie vorzuführen: Image
Der bekannteste Machwerk, das „Russophobie“ sogar im Titel hat, stammt von Igor Schafarewitsch (1989). Hier die erste Seite der dt. Übersetzung, in dem dieser wichtige Mathematiker dem Begriff eine russ.-nationalistische und antisemitische Grundlage gab. Man beachte *Antivolk: Image

You want to see what Russians are doing after their country mass murder my people yesterday? They are making Zelinskyy war criminal trend and posting obscenely obvious staged Russian propaganda. This is who world should help post Putin? Why? #RussiaIsANaziState & #Russophobia=🙋‍♀️
They put on flag of other countries to implicate them in their cruelty:
Look it’s more Italians when only people that use drug addict propaganda are Russians

You've gotta be wary of frequency bias, but:

Is anyone else seeing "#Russophobe" used to slur high-profile members of #NAFO who make jokes about it?

So, OK: few things about that.

Start with the context for "#russophobia" as a joke and a dogwhistle.

🧵
As some of the old hands in #NAFO are doubtlessly aware, "russophobia" is a recurrent disinfo theme, and this isn't the first time it's cropped up in the context of Ukraine.

So, here's @DFRLab (<-- follow them, we like them) talking about it in '18

Back in 2017, Brian Whitmore in RFE/RL traces Russophobia back to "19th-century Slavophile poet and diplomat Fyodor Tyutchev", and reinforces an exceptionalist, righteously-aggrieved victim narrative for Russia.

Take a look at how #China #Russia #Iran and #DomesticExtremist conduct influence operations – #disinformation and #misinformation campaigns – to disrupt and influence US #Midterms2022 elections. Read the full report here: bit.ly/3ew3zhN Image
The #Russophobia theme emerged on a #RussiaTimes interview with #DmitryBabich and in June 2022 with FSB-directed #Southfront. This appeal to ethnic Russians could drive tension between them and US govt, possibly motivating a hack-and-leak or hack-and-fake #OctoberSurprise. 2/7 Image
Russian state-controlled media are diversifying existing infrastructure through registration of alternative website domains – website “mirrors” – and are increasingly using country code Top Level Domains within existing infrastructure. Chart shows mirror mentions for #Sputnik 3/7 Image

Day 218 of #Russia's war on #Ukraine and the start of another daily thread.

Quite a lot of late news yesterday. To catch up on what you missed, click and scroll through yesterday's 🧵

Some breaking news to start with and #Sweden says it has found a 4th leak on the Nord Stream pipeline.

Previously 3 leaks were found on the gas link from #Russia to #Germany, caused by sabotage.

#StopRussia #SaveUkraine
More threats on neighbours by #Russia

This time the leader of the "A Just Russia.." party targets #Kazakhstan.

Sergey Mironov threatens (military) intervention after "seeing manifestations of #Russophobia..
The persecution of Russian-speaking citizens will inevitably begin"🤡

Again. Absolute horror. But it must be seen. It destroys you if you have empathy, but it's necessary. To realize that whenever #russia 'flying monkey' speaks of 🇷🇺 interests, #russianCulture, #navalny they are a monster too. 🇷🇺 is committing #warcrime ->
And these human beings, in the West, yes, dare to speak of #russia point of view? They switch focus from real #russianWarCrimes to concerns over "canceling russian culture", "#russophobia" which isn't even a thing. They're as much a monster as orc who tortures civilians & POWS->
Simple fact: when #russians destroy #Ukrainian or #Syrian cities, kill and rape #Ukraine or #Syria civilians, torture and behead #POWs, it's life of real ppl that matters, #russianCulture doesnt matter, it ceases to exist. So are 'russian interests' & whatever BS they push->

Just a reminder why #Crimea & #Donbass decided to separate from #Ukraine when in 2014,
after illegal overthrow of the gov in #Kiev, endorsed by the #US and #EU, the Nazis came to power. Same Nazis who burnt people alive in #Odessa, who oppressed Rus-speaking population of 🇺🇦
#CIA was helping #Ukraine nationalist groups such as Stepan Bandera’s OUN UPA before WWII to fight the leadership of the USSR. OUN UPA was involved in massive war crimes collaborating with SS-Divisions. Today US and allies reanimated fascists in Ukraine and using them against 🇷🇺
The West has not only been deliberately ignoring the rise of fascism in #Ukraine but helping them with lethal weapons and financial aid throughout these years.

The goal has always been to create and abscess at the border with #Russia and contain Russia’s economy.

RT quotes this expert tweet: "All this novichok in Salisbury makes me think it’s nothing to do with the Russians but some one in Salisbury. Most things are on your doorstep."
Also this: "What if the government are just going to randomly poison someone with Novichok every time people start to realise what a car crash Brexit is?"
And if you want to be truly convincing, use the hashtags #FalseFlag and #Russophobia.
