Discussion on Freedom and Fear in Ukraine

You'll soon annoy people so much with this betrayal,

everyone is already like in a concentration camp.

Ukraine is no longer a free country.

After we've been fighting for so many years

to be free.

How are we free?

Look at these little animals who are afraid, damn it, to open their mouths.

If you say something somewhere, you always have to look over your shoulder,

you have to be afraid all the time.

If you said something wrong somewhere, or to the wrong person,

took a photo with the wrong person, or sang to the wrong person.

Didn't cry, damn it, where you were supposed to,

or laughed where you shouldn't have.

For fuck's sake, are we in a concentration camp,

let's walk, marching in formation.

The Party said no, you can't, the Party said yes.

Don't you understand

that we are now in some goddamn Soviet Union?

And I'll tell you what this will lead to.

To what?

Soon we will all be terrified,

intimidated mice.

And your loved one or someone, you know,

will be dragged away on the street, and you will just walk by,

so that, damn it, and just,

when you see someone being kicked to a pulp,

you turn away and just keep running,

God forbid you get hit too, you know?

That's how people turn from humans into indifferent beasts.
