A hole was formed in the center of Ukraine. Why the world perceives our war as if it were a natural disaster

"The destruction of the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station and the further human and environmental disaster are a wonderful model of how the event treats our war as a whole. As a natural disaster. " Do not read the thought, you don't like it, just note yourself. I thought here: the destruction of the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station and a further human and environmental disaster are a wonderful model of how the event treats our war as a whole. As a natural disaster.

In the first world, there are many pleasant, comfortable and culturally rooted mechanisms of reaction to natural disasters that have taken place "somewhere". The first is the pity and compassion for the victims - classical Christian feelings. The second is the feasible assistance, which in the 20th century, thanks to the mechanisms of international funds, turned not only to moral dividends, but also quite specific material income.

If it is not about ordinary people, but about businesses and corporations, it is profitable to help. Ordinary people simply improve their karma. Nothing of these actions implies the answer to the question: who did it and how to interfere with this in advance. Because these issues need other despair of thinking and actions that do not have a tradition in Western culture and can interfere with business.

Many Europeans refer to Russia's attack on Ukraine as a natural disaster, from which people in both countries die and suffer. They provide us with protective weapons, as they would provide blankets during an earthquake. The blanket will not replace your destroyed house and stop the earthquake, but at least it will not allow you to freeze to death this night.

What is needed to turn from who they help, because he has been unclear for no reason, the ally - who with whom there are common goals? I do not know.
