At least in the eyes of some Ukrainians…
I was reminded of the US pre-invasion designation of a female Iraqi scientist as “Dr Germ” when a friend sent me a list from Ukraine of over 1,300 individuals and some 900 organizations in 19 European countries who are….
Yeah, man! We’re all revealed as agents, germs, bad guys – in the eyes of Ukrainian free and fair media.
See the shoddy list here – and choose any country to the left. If you choose “Denmark,” then you’ll see all my Danish germy friends and colleagues 🙈 🙉 🙊…
Here is what the word “germ” may mean. To use it about human beings is dehumanising, derogatory and anything but civilised and respectful.
However, in Ukraine’s democracy and free press 🙈 🙉 🙊 it seems to be considered good journalism. Texty.org.ua is a media company.
kunne godt forestille mig at jeg er med på listen selv om jeg er en totalt ukendt person, for jeg bekæmper propagandaløgnene omkring krigens årsager,
jeg er dog aldeles ligeglad med hvad der kan ske mig, og jeg vil aldrig kunne trues til at acceptere propagandaens falske “virkelighed”.
