The Russo-Ukrainian War Prompted People To Create Memes And Here Are 35 That Show Support To Ukraine
While the world is still trying to wrap its head around the fact that Europe is again facing a huge war not even a century after the Second World War, Ukrainians are courageously defending their country. Various governments are sending military and humanitarian support to help Ukrainians be stronger than their enemy. People from places all over the globe are sending prayers and good thoughts to support them and make the soldiers feel like they are fighting for the right purpose.
Regular people can do just as much as governments can by donating money, warm clothes, giving Ukrainian families a place to stay, going to protests and just showing their complete support because Ukrainians see that and it really helps with keeping the soldiers’ spirits high.
Memesters are also doing their fair share of work by creating memes that demonstrate they are on Ukraine’s side. Joking around about war is absolutely not funny and not right because it is not a game and people’s lives are on the line. But even in the darkest moments, there is a need for a break and for a laugh, so Bored Panda searched the internet to collect the best memes people shared that show we all are on their side.
Also, if you have the means to support Ukraine, The National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) opened a special fundraising account which collects money that goes directly to supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The number of the special account is UA843000010000000047330992708. You can find more information and make a card payment if you follow this link to the official NBU website.

Same, I absolutely admire the way he's fighting for his people and his country but I always wonder what is supposed to be so magnificent about great big wrinkly balls.

Load More Replies...I would have said the LOVE for Volodymyr Zelensky as a metaphorical sight.
Not too long ago, the Winter Olympics ended and we collected a list of memes that came out of it. Major events like these always inspire people to express their opinions in the form of a meme as it is short, sarcastic and powerful.
Lately memesters are getting a lot of hate for making fun of the fact that there is war, especially when they live nowhere near the region and have no real understanding of what is happening. Glamourising the ‘war aesthetic,’ and trying to find a bright side to the invasion are only a few examples of the cringey memes that exist on the internet.
Remember En Vogue? "No, you're never gonna get it / Never ever gonna get it (no, not this time) / No, you're never gonna get it (my love) / Never ever gonna get it " https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIuYQ_4TcXg
There are moments where a good bad word is necessary... Things like "Just a light shower, my balls!" (Noah)
Finland has been neutral since 1995 but it has come to an end. We have picked our side like Sweden and Switzerland have and we all stand with Ukraine. And there was never a question about it.
Load More Replies...Imagine being the flaming bag of d***s that causes Switzerland to break a few hundred years worth of neutrality.
To me this eliminates all the possible “justifications” for this war. If there was even an ounce of proof that this war is valid, neutral countries wouldn’t be standing up. Russia’s actions threaten the security of the entire world. You just can’t do this.
I wouldn't say Finland is neutral in this matter. We share a long border and a violent history with Russia. We still haven't joined the Nato, but hopefully soon we will.
Load More Replies...Even freaking FIFA is taking action and that's the same organization that gave the World Cup to Qatar.
I recently saw something that described FIFA as the 2nd most corrupt organisation on the planet
Load More Replies...2 of them are pretty much on Putin's wishlist of targets to go after after Ukraine though.
I can clearly see the advantage of controlling Scandinavia and thus the major part of the Baltic sea. His wish is to restore Russia to what is was during the Soviet Union but make it bigger and better. Me, a Swede, is following the situation very closely.
Load More Replies...But there is the other side of the internet where people are understanding and realize how sensitive the topic is and don’t undermine the pain and fear that Ukrainian people are feeling. On the contrary, they are sympathizing with those who suffer.
Even the official Twitter account of the state of Ukraine shared some memes and they are really spot-on and relatable to Ukrainians and other neighboring countries. They are dark, but they are funny in the sense that they are true, ironic and sarcastic.
Here's a good one. I'm a resident of an assisted cared facility. One of the things we do, ás people of faith,much like the Ukraine citizens,is pray for them. I'm going to be lambasted for this comment probably, but we have no money to send in physical aid. So we pray for legions of Angels to fight on their side and for other countries to do what is right and support the Ukraine. You get a bunch of praying grandma and Grandpas together, it's a powerful thing!
pictures taken in Dombass in 2020 ... what a hero he was sending the military to beat and russian independantist (alias civilians with guns) ! what a guy ! xD https://factcheck.afp.com/doc.afp.com.324B7CA
Putin's trying to live up to his ancient past--his people, the Rus, were originally a Viking tribe that moved south (maybe even the Norse didn't want them).
Of course, it seems that creating memes is not that big of a deal and doesn’t have an impact, especially comparing it to the huge protests that are being organized or people taking their own cars and driving to the borders of Ukraine to take families into their homes.
But we need to remember that the snowball effect starts from a small snowflake. People who see these memes might be reminded that they wanted to donate, they might be inspired to organize something bigger so it could lead to an actual impact on the people in Ukraine.

what is a Molotov cocktail, I keep seeing it in the news but I don't know what they are, maybe a flammable projectile?
A simple glass bottle filled with flamable liquids and a piece of cloth in the hole - the cloth gets lit on fire and the bottle thrown. Named after the russian minister for foreign affairs by finnish forces during the Winter War in 1939/40
Load More Replies...Nahhhh, You're supposed to bring out that atomic bomb you've been creating. ... Damned Russians will believe anything they are told as it is the ONLY THING they are told.
Please upvote him so he doesnt get comments about the upvote count.
Load More Replies...The same draft dodger who praised Putin for his brilliance. Hopefully both will be left out of history books.
No. We must remember the losers. It's important that we know what happened, so we can ensure it doesn't happen again. I'm trying not to go Godwin's law on this, but we've kept Stalin and Hitler in the history books for a good reason.
Load More Replies...Let's not forget that it was Zelensky who Trump was trying to extort on the other end of his "perfect phone call".
That is a bold face lie. Zelenskyy was elected march 31. 2019. A typical lying liberal
Load More Replies...He only ever talked to Zelensky to try to get dirt on Biden and he's still kissing Putins ass., ridiculing the brave Ukrainian people. Hiw does he still have support?
Because their are a lot of stupid people here in the US. And Florida is one of the worst states. And Trump lives here.
Load More Replies...They didn't claim bone spurs they never had, either.
Load More Replies...Don't wanna be that guy, but he needs to protect himself, he's the beacon his people are relying to and I'm afraid he's exposing himself too much. But on the other hand his actions encourage his people, his soldiers. Is a very hard desision to make, but just hope he will be alright and all Ukraine.
I hate this b******t. Joe Biden also got FIVE draft deferments, including one for asthma. The ONLY major-party presidential candidates in my lifetime who did NOT avoid combat duty were Bob Dole, John McCain and George H. W. Bush. So don't pretend this isn't anything other than hijacking a thread about standing in support of Ukraine with your own petty, hypocritical politics.
Get the pseudo-millionaire out of the public eye. A black hole would be appropriate.
While people on the internet are doing their thing and citizens of other countries are creating initiatives, it is important to note the efforts of governments too. Like Switzerland, the most neutral country in European history, famous for not being involved in either of the world wars when bombs were flying around it, deciding to join the EU sanctions against Russia and freezing Russian assets.
Also, a historic decision was made by the EU, which decided as an institution to support Ukraine and give €450 million ($503 million) to allow the country to buy weapons. They also decided to provide Ukraine with planes as well. This decision was very surprising as it is the first time in the EU’s history that it will finance a purchase of weapons but it will greatly help the Ukrainian forces.
I want this printed on a shirt to show respect and support to him and Ucrainia!
I was wondering if my favorite gull was going to get in on the action.
*everyone's favorite gull (fixed it for ya ;) )
Load More Replies...Undeniably THE most badass way to go. Telling a ship that's going to fire on you to f*ck off.
I saw a map indicating the responses of different European nations as to whether they would fight for their country. Ukraine was in the highest group of 61% or more. Putin should have seen that map. Maybe he would have thought twice.
Another surprise was how relatively easy it was to make Germany’s government change their minds about disconnecting Russia from SWIFT as it means huge financial losses for the country. But this decision is already active and the world observes what consequences it will have for Russia’s economy.
The world is united against a common enemy and are waiting to see if our efforts will be enough to help Ukraine to protect the Western world and values.
And again, financial support is very important as it allows Ukraine to have a chance against Russia by being able to get weapons and supplies for the soldiers. So here is the account that The National Bank of Ukraine started: UA843000010000000047330992708 and here is the link to the Bank’s official website.
Слава Україні!
Omniman was the villain of the show. I wouldn't compare the people of Ukraine to him.
I second this!! Ted Cruz is an idiot and I sure hope we vote him and his crew out!!!
IKR? Can't believe the people could have had Beto and they settled for Ted. Fingers crossed that Beto will be in the next governor.
Load More Replies...Ted Cruz. US Senator from Texas who fled to Cancun last year when the Texas power grid collapsed because he was cold. When he was publicly called out, he tried to blame his kids. People died because Texas never put out the money to prepare for the winter, even though they were given plenty of warning.
Load More Replies...It is an insult to Zalensky to have his photo appear next to a bag of wind idiot "know nothing" cowardly fool.
Ted Cruz, I think? Texas dude who left when the snowstorm hit
Load More Replies...Perfect example of US idiots we have in house. I hope we can get more like Ukraine leader in the future
one is taken in 2021 (before the russian invasion) when the Ukrainan army was killing civilian in Dombass and nobody cares about it (except maybe one neighbour country), the second one is the senator of Texas going in vacation... wtf ? Oh and were is the mask of Zvelensky ? Isn't covid a Global Pandemia ?
He will be saying fu*king world, because whole world is standing up to him

Load More Replies...Ukraine should invade Russia and drop them balls (and clits) on putine
The add seems to have been removed. But I agree, Go Zelenskyi
Load More Replies...And Putler's ex-wife is in internal exile in Kaliningrad so she can't tell the world what a weird sexual deviant he is, the poor woman.
If ukrain joined nato then us and eu can put their weapons and missiles on Russian border which be exposed if it joined nato ukraine was just a mere p**n for all these "big countries" to try and oppress Russia and Russia just sent there people and controlled politicians in ukraine before zelensky(sorry if a spell it wrong. ) term to stop it from happening. So in a simple way Russia wanted to stop ukraine from joining nato. So putin decided kill. That's some evil level s**t mr.Putin
I think everyone should look up what the Holodomor was. F*ck Russia.
THIS! Everyone please watch "Harvest of Despair" documentary (about Holodomor), it's on YouTube.
Load More Replies...Meanwhile putin you servant get my inhaler hu hu hu why why is he still fighting evreyone has to do what i say waaaaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaa ( putins temper tantrum).
Meanwhile, Trump would run over old people and throw kids out of his way to get on the first transport out of the country at the slightest whiff of a war in the U.S. The man hid in a bunker when protestors were getting too close to the White House (he said he was "inspecting" the bunker...REALLY??? LOL) and those were Americans!
True leaders lead from the front, not the rear (or in most cases, nowhere near).
Seems some troops were told "go here, it's just exercises", and don't even want war, just to go home. Some reservists don't even know what battalion or group they are with. They feel betrayed, and know they are nothing more than cannon fodder.
I really feel bad for these Russian troops and am glad many are trying to be non-combative and use common sense. I think it hit home when in another post someone said if they die, they will never be considered war heros, just an embarrassment validating the evilness of Putin. Their Russian family will grieve the lost of their child for what was unnecessary, unwanted, and motivated by fear. I am sadly amazed that one man can have this much power to change the lives of so many for the worse, even his own country's citizens.
As part of the UN.... those armies are allowed to over throw their own government and the UN has to help out. Just an FYI. *stares at russia*
Umm this is off topic but some dude is telling others to subscribe to you. They say it’s because you are forcing them to and that they are getting kidnapped? Can you explain?
Load More Replies...Bro da arrow went in deep putin needs to get a life and some balls like straight up
To the people who say, as if exposing corruption, that it turns out that the 13 soldiers on Snake Island ended up being taken prisoner: Do you think that makes their balls any smaller? (I am glad to know the truth, however.)
The threat to their lives was the same, regardless of the outcome. I think it's safe to say we all want to buy them a round of drinks when this is over.
Load More Replies...Is this the same snake island with the golden lancehead? because if so, all those snakes should bite all the russians.
Not funny at all. This is the true state of affairs and I am ashamed that more has not been done in support of Ukraine's brave defenders.
We have no choice. We can send money and weapons but the moment we step foot into Ukraine we escalate it into a world War. Ukraine is not part of NATO. But we are and if we go to war every other nation in NATO will as well. It won't be two countries. It will be multiple continents.
Load More Replies...Every government is supporting them in their words, but the governments need to support with their actions too.
Have you not listened to Putin's threats? The moment anyone else get involved his paranoid ass will escalate the situation to a point the whole world will suffer.
Load More Replies...and it sucks... horrific response allowing the Russkies to keep bombing indiscriminately
straight up this meme is dead on to bad im 12 or i would want to help
Upvote for Avengers Endgame reference and because GO UKRAINE!!! 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
Because the big winners after the last world war made sure that they all had a 'veto' clause built into it........ it was pretty much corrupt from the start.
Just a re-hash of the 'League of Nations' and look at what that institution achieved
Load More Replies...United Nations in real life is like Herbert's dog from Family Guy
UN be like: no you can't do that please stop we'll make you give us money
Since the Soviet Union that was originally on the Security Council, not Russia, and Russia is only part of the old Soviet Union, would it really go against the U.N. Charter to kick them off?
the UN that I learned in school: https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSTWhzU9vhUTnUW1n_Yl2ws9jYQWJELftpr8YcOykrjYmZv8ZrTizHxM-tXJkd8AXMxDCM&usqp=CAU
Wouldn't be the first time Russia was a d**k to Ukraine. More people need to know about the Holodomor- the mass genocide of Ukrainians by starvation that Russia inflicted on them in the early 1930's.
This meme is ridiculously inaccurate. The "bad neighbor" is causing the crisis. There IS a crisis.
Russia is like that drunk old party pooper uncle with no self control at weddings.
Let's call it a Russia crisis, because that's what it is. We all are at war with Russia, some with guns, some by interfering in elections, misinformation wars - the lot.
Let's call it Putin's Failed Egotistical Ambition.

Load More Replies...I am a Bosnian and I feel this. The difference is that Europe imposed a weapons EMBARGO on my country when we were attacked, allowing the agressors to have the starting upper hand. We survived an agression by two countries, a genocide and Europe’s bureaucracy and we still are an independent state. It seems that at least that lesson from Bosnia is learned by the EU. Slava Ukrajini!
I'm too young to remember, but we learn about it at school and my family (which is not from Bosnia) remembers it and taught ne how horrible it was. May it never happen again. Love from Slovenija🇸🇮 And slava Ukrajini! 🇺🇦

Load More Replies...Where's Baghdad Barb now? The Russian journalist insisting that the tanks rolling into Ukraine were not tanks rolling into Ukraine? Her mistaken defense of Putin should tell Putin so much: here was a woman willing to call day "night," and night, "day" for him, and she presumed that Putin would want to keep secret any incursion North from Crimea. Sure, she apparently reasoned, he wouldn't want to unite the world against him by being so brazen.
on RT-Russia Today, a sat channel, they only show videos of old Ucrainian Dombass fight, and no comment about war news flowing running on bottom of video. plus I've seen a video of a wrecked car I've already seen on TV in war bulletin on rest-of-the-world broadcasts. honestly I can't say who's lying, but I've my opinions...
Praying is useless, idiotic and a waste of time, send money and goods.
When a large population of Ukrainians identify as Christian and still more identify as other religions, it is not useless, but is supportive of their faith. I respect your right to your own religious beliefs or absence of, but please realize many people do have beliefs and also have a right to them. And yes, let's also send money and weapons. Let's support Ukraine in every way we are able.
Load More Replies...How could Putin not see any of this coming? Some would probably say he has so much money, he doesn't care if Russia's economy tanks, but what about his uber-rich buddies? I doubt they will tolerate economic collapse because of one man's mad schemes. This makes me think he will be stopped by his own cronies, one way or another. Someone, somewhere must have a plan for this.
