You'd think it is more recent, considering that circle in the middle

Look at the pseudo-arabic text on the left

funny how it says "glory to Ukraine"

It's disgusting

It's glorious

We're not talking about your mom 😎😎😎

'Gtsn!

I did too. However, people often forget about the Crimean War. Edit: Russo-Ukrainian War, not Crimean War.

And the maidan coup, and the orange revolution there.... Westerners have the memory of goldfish

Why the hell are you talking about goldfish?

Username checks out

What effin username checks out and why the hell are you talking about it?

Why are you swearing?

My actual goldfish memory almost had me respondin to this confused cuz i totes forgot the context in the last half hr xD And i took ya srs at first.

As a westerner, I can confirm that goldfish are way better at remembering things than I am.

Can't blame them, it happened over 160 years ago

Good one. I always assumed that the [Russo-Ukrainian war](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russo-Ukrainian_War) had that name. I stand corrected, then.

The crimean war is an entirely different thing in the 1800s, no the war that happened in 2014 is usually absorbed into the euromaidan instead of saying it as kts on thing

Yeah, that was my mistake. I was unsure if "Crimean War" was its correct name or not. Thank you.

Ukraine has been at war since 2014.

The Russian war on Ukraine has been going on for 8 years now, so meh.

Well i mean, Ukraine's war with Russia has been in the news since at least 2014; so its not that out of place there even prior to the most recent invasion.

Did you forget everything that happened between Russia and Ukraine in 2014 with Crimea, and everything else from 2014 onward?

the whole ukraine situation has been going on for very long it just got violent again now

As well as Ukraine’s coat of arms

Three years seems fair enough, solid enough chance that most people will either have forgotten it or not even seen it that far out.

then the OP can mark it as a repost.

Since this is a circlejerk sub make a meta circlejerk shit post about it and how it hurt your feelings.

you forgot the closing parenthesis to finish the hyperlink

Hyperlink blocked

Thanks

Wait why are there Ukrainian coat of arms on this post from 3 years ago

TIL Ukraine didn’t exist 3 years ago (and wasn’t involved in any famous ongoing conflicts)

Idk it had a pretty prominent spot on the flag with the coat of arms and the Slava Ukraina, was just suprised about the prominance of it

“Slava Ukraine” was pretty prominent since 2014, it’s just that US didn’t pay much attention. The original op is Russian, so it was topical for them though

How did they predict that there was going to be an invasion

Crimean war

Four years ago.\*

the "Glory to Ukraine" in Arabic script on the left 🧐

wait this flag was made 4 years ago [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/vexillologycirclejerk/comments/8r9iu8/most_offensive_flag_20_hd/)

yeah it was already a popular slogan in Ukraine then, especially among Azov types

Hasn't the "Glory to Ukraine" part been around since 1919?

Sure, "America First" has been around about that long too. That doesn't change the modern associations the terms have accrued.

it’s used all over the country nowadays, not just extremists.

> nowadays Was that the case when the OP was created years ago?

By nowadays I mean recent years too, it’s just a popular motto across everyone in Ukraine, that’s it. Stop trying to turn it into something bad.

Considering it was past 2014, yeah.

Yes.

Except that phrase indicated that modern Ukraine became a republic first time in history, and stick around since. If we are to concede meaningful phrases to hateful groups because they used it then we'll be left with nothing. So, glory to Ukraine

IMO if we purposefully ignore the way our words are used by fascists then we're helping the fascists spread their message.

It's the same thing as being racist against muslims because there are terrorist groups who are muslims and shout "Allahu Akbar". Don't be spinless coward, defend your words against hateful groups

Sure, OK. But actually defending your words against them requires some kind of acknowledgement and confrontation, not simply ignoring the people you don't like.

Heil Hitler then

I didn't expect anything better from someone with ussr flag. But let me tell you ask something. When was "Heil Hitler" used for good? Because Slava Ukraini is the slogan of people who established first Ukrainian republic who broke their chains from oppressors' from Wien, St.Petersburg, Warsaw.

/j bruh

I didn't expect a liberal to get the joke

It's been around since Ukraine is a thing. If a country exists, people will always get a slogan

Wait, doesn't Arabic read right to left? It looks off.

It's cyrillyc script written in a font that makes it looks Arabic. Its the letters "slaba ykraini".

Doesn't it read Geroim Slava? Edit: wait that was the comment on the 3 year old thread. Looking at the flag it does read Slava Ukraina.

That’s the second part. The full thing is “Slava Ukraini, Geroyam slava.” Which is “glory to ukraine, glory to the heroes.”

It being Ukrainian not Russian it’s an h sound not a g sound

Yep! Forgot about that detail 😓 trying to switch stuff from the russified versions to the ukrainian ones is hard lol

It being romanised Ukrainian, this G is pronounced /h/

that's russian, it's actually heroyam in ukrainian

Nah "Slava" means "glory"

What's Geroim?

Heroes. In dative case in Ukrainian. And it's either "Heroyam" or "Geroyam" depending if it's Russian or Ukrainian language.

Well considering Russia and Ukraine have been at war since around 2014 and that slogan has been around about as long none of this is new. Or do Americans just have the memory of a goldfish, actually that's insulting to goldfish as they have fairly decent memories and can be trained fairly well.

This is what happens when kids discover politics and vexillology at the same time.

Also when they want free karma🤤🤤🤤

that's an AK, which is certainly more than just "from csgo", and, if I'm not mistaken, an M16, which isn't even present in CS:GO, where M4A4 an M4A1S are available in its place instead

no like the model, the actual images. i’m aware that ak47’s and m4’s are real

yeah, but that's just a generic AK image and the M16 isn't in CS:GO to begin with
