A few weeks ago there was this:
I'll quote the thread so that people who aren't signed into twitter can read it:
A shameful attack from a the far right youth group took place in Odessa last Saturday, the attackers finally had to run away in front of the reaction from comrades.
[
Direct Action Independent Student Union telegram link (in Ukrainian)]
the far-right tried to disrupt the presentation of a zine organized by the independent student union Direct Action. They tried to break into the room where the presentation was taking place.
When they failed to do so, they stole one copy of the magazine and tried to burn it, which led to a fight. As a result, they sprayed gas on an activist of the Solidarity Collectives and two soldiers from the Ecological Platform who are now being treated in Odesa
We would like to express our support and solidarity for our friends and colleagues who fought back against the far right. Unfortunately, we have seen a number of attacks happening in recent months against feminists, LGBTQ people, student unions, etc.
These attacks were committed by far-right youth groups. Just as we have to fight an existential war against the authoritarian Russian regime that brings with it torture, oppression, repressive policies, homophobia, and violence of the so called "traditional values"
some political groups decided to wage an internal war for the very same reasons: authoritarian values, racism, and homophobia
Solidarity Collectives
