important thread
RT @noclador: All the people calling what happened in Makiivka a "war crime" know fuck shit about surrender procedures.
Surrenders of enemy forces larger than one's own force are TRAINED and follow procedures. The Ukrainian troops followed the procedure and because of that they are alive.

Take some Xanax. Or is this Russia's response to a GRU agent, who did prison time for spying against Estonia and was ultimately exchanged. But he hated Russia so much he defected... to Estonia.🤣
RT @KarliKelk79: What can we expect from a terrorist state? Inferior rhetoric and attitude towards the neighbor. On the other hand, Estonia and the other Baltic countries are used to facing threats from Russia. It's time for Putin to disapp…

Short answer: Orientalism. That's a polite term for what Germans called Central and Eastern Europeans during WW 2.
Read this. We were not allowed agency in Europe by Germany either. Only Russia could dictate.

Still. “Language is use” and medical jargon is meaningless to people waiting in an emergency room.
RT @JessicaDenning7: @rmcough @ilvestoomas @offhandmanor1 Correct. Acuity, is actually what most pts fail to grasp in emergency medicine. It’s not first come first serve, you will be seen based on your level of “Acuity” on a scale of 1-5, with 1 being most acute & 5 being least. I sympathize with this sign.
