Damn this thread sure has quite a few comments in the last 2 days
If an enemy starts attacking your country what should the people do? That's right, make the fundraisers for country's DEFENSE which is Armed Forces of Ukraine in this case. I myself have donated some money, settled a family of refugees from Kharkiv in my flat for a few weeks - people are doing what they can, while russians are living their normal lives.
Unfortunately I'm one of the very few ukrainians trying to start a boycott in trance community without being bored and hopeless about it.
Our ukrainian trance community is too small for artists/listeners to be united into some form of "boycott the russian music" thing, that's why I tried creating this thread. I do have some dj's/producer-friends who are also trying to post something about it but they barely have any attention from trance community at all. And as we all know, labels care about
, and most of listeners be like "wE aRe OuT oF PoLiTiCs, jUsT liSTeN To tRaNcE, cLoSe yOuR eYes AnD fLy", listening to some cheesy vocal trance.
You deal with facts? Perfect! Please tell me how you dealwith
these 998 facts of your important position, captured only in 4 months of russian invasion?
Let's talk about Volyn massacre then.
What was the reason of brutal killing of poles by Ukrainian nationalists?
First of all, one of the most powerful socio-political force in Volyn was the "union of the russian people" (it was called "black hundred"), which was created in russia on the year 1905. Around 2 million villagers have signed up for this black hundred. It's clear that these people did not sign up voluntarily, and they simply didn't have a choice as the popes compiled lists of local organizations of the "Union of the russian people" ("SRN"), because this movement was inspired by the russian Orthodox Church. The ideological inspirer of the "SRN" in Volyn was Metropolitan Antony who was originally from russia.
As we see, this chain stretches from the pre-war and interwar period of the 20th century to the modern Ukrainian state, and once again, the
russians are the ones who have started this all.
The conclusions I came to:
1. TH3 ONE is simply tired of the Ukrainian immigrants living in Poland during all his life, hearing Ukrainian language from every corner of Poland, as I myself have been one of them in 2019-2021, living there for 1,5 years and I've seen way too many Ukrainians in this country simply cause it's an EU country, the salaries are better and the opportunity of getting out of "slavic environment" is much stronger.
As most of Ukrainians during many years have arrived to Poland without higher education to work in buildings and other low-profit jobs, there have been quite a few "scandals" with them in the news, the drunk fights with polish people, etc.
And the fact of TH3 ONE seeing so many ukrainians and the video about the Volyn massacre have been the main triggers for him to hate everything Ukrainian and for justifying russian attacks on Ukraine without batting an eye.
2. Regarding mr. guse - this person probably doesn't even know what trance is and he simply decided to
a bit on this forum and assert himself through his "smart point of view".
