New Trend: "Saint Zelensky" Votive Candles Turn Ukraine President into Deity
Israel365News ^ | 5/8/22 | Adam Eliyahu Berkowitz

After taking up a gun to lead his country’s battle against the invading Russian army, Ukraine’s Jewish Presiden, Volodymyr Zelensky, became an international hero. But recently, he has become a religious icon, with some people even lighting votive candles to “Saint Zelensky.”

In an address to the Danish Parliament in late March, Zelensky tapped into a widespread and deeply ingrained Nordic tradition of lighting a candle as a symbol of hygge (domestic coziness). As a result of this tradition, Denmark uses more candles per capita than any other country in the world, and 28% of Danes light candles every day. Zelensky urged the Danish people to channel this tradition toward his country’s cause in his address.

“I know that in Denmark, a candle is an image of hygge and normal home life. That’s a life many people in Ukraine can hardly imagine,” he said during the address.

“I would ask people at home in Danish families today to light a candle in memory of the Ukrainian lives that have been lost to the Russian invasion. In memory of those who have sacrificed their lives for our peace and freedom,” he said.

Some FReepers are frantically Googling to see where they can order their Zelensky candles. Just the thing their altars need. 😏

I understand our very own Zelenskyy Cult places them on the living room floor and sits on them.

Is it sacrilege to say that the day I need a benediction from a politician is the day my presence in Hell is needed immediately?

He’s got our leaders by their short hairs, and he knows it, because he knows exactly what they have done, criminally related.

How long before Lindsey Graham promises Hearings on where all the Ukraine money went, if the Republicans win back the Senate?

It may be too soon for old Lindsey and Hannity to promise to get Hunter…

We could name them in this thread. In fact, way back, FR used to call out the shills when they became insufferable.

I keep thinking back to the Crevo threads circa mid 2000s, when infamous user "Dane" harangued one of the posters on the "evo" side of the debate about that groups "leader" having a penchant for dressing up like a woman.
