On August 21 1968, 56 years ago, I woke up to the sounds of #ruZZian tanks in my street in #czechoslovakia .
#ruZZian fascist imperial evil was never forgotten by #Czechs and #Slovaks, and will not be forgotten by #Ukrainians, who were against all odds, brave enough to stand up and fight evil and aggression.

π #Czechs and #Slovaks raised 400,000 euros for a scout helicopter in a week
Its total cost is about 4.3 million euros.
πͺ According to the organizers, the helicopter has already been inspected by aviation experts from #Ukraine - it is in good condition and ready to perform combat tasks.
π€ As soon as the amount necessary for the purchase is collected, the Ministry of Defence of the #Czech_Republic will deliver the #Black_Hawk to #Ukrainian intelligence officers.
Then the #Slovaks flew to #Moscow for gas negotiations, where they were met personally by #Putin at a ceremony in the #St_George_Hall of the #Kremlin.
βAfter this, #Fico began to take an openly anti-#Ukrainian position,β said #Alexander_Duleba, an expert at the #Slovak Foreign Policy Association.

Just one piece of a rather long but extremely interesting thread by @badlogic shedding some light on #price #discount policies in Austrian chain stores.
Especially good for #Slovaks who like to spend their euros in #Austria so much. Now you see, you've been pretty fucked over all the time π.
Of course, if any #Slovaks or people who have lived in Slovakia can weigh in on this, please let me know! #Slovakia #slovensko
#LGBTQ+ #rights situation drives young #Slovaks abroad.
A double #murder outside an #LGBTQ+ #bar in the Slovak #capital last October unleashed a wave of #solidarity. Now, however, many members of the #LGBTQ+ #community feel badly #letdown by #politicians

@RouxJ It is a big ashame. But #Orban is same, as his friend #Putler. Of OrbΓ‘n isn't secret, that He wants #BigHungary, where #Slovaks were persecued with another nations.
'The secret of the survival of the House of #Hapsburg in the nineteenth century lay in careful balance and support of a supranational machinery by the mutual antagonism and exploitation of #Czechs by #Germans, of #Slovaks by #Hungarians, of #Ruthenians by #Poles... For.all of them it became a matter of course that one might achieve #nationΒhood at the expense of the others and that one would gladly be deprived of freedom if the oppression came from one's own national government.' #Arendt
