Dear Reno: FReepers are interested in many topics. I am on ping lists ranging from Medicine to Archeaology, to Volcanoes. RevMom is interested in writing about Ukraine where she has personal information and friends. why don’t you write about the topics that interest you, and let us who care about other topics be pleased with getting the information we are already getting.
Personally, my grandparents on my mother’s side came from a part of Europe currently under Russian domination. Russians were directly responsible for the death of two of my elderly great aunts who were harmless and retired, so I am very interested that Russia does not get to expand again. Unless your ancestry is native American or Asian, your ancesters came or were brought here, so if you are not taking an interest in European or African matters, you are forgetting your heritage and learning nothing new about it.
There is a big difference between showing interest and spouting blatant propaganda. Every day we have to wade through the same redundant BS. And some of my distant relatives come from Eastern Europe but that’s no license to forget that I am American first. Ukraine is not a national security risk to the US. Americans are not being killed, raped, or taken hostage in Ukraine. They are in Gaza.
