Ukrainian Memes Dump

I am working on a case study/contextual analysis of memes related to the current Russian invasion. Please post your favorite ones.

The most interesting ones have got to be the ones posted to the official Ukraine Twitter account, (because it’s the official Ukraine Twitter account doing it).

Relevant video on the international relational consequences of political memes, by Lessons In Meme Culture:

Here's a large collection of Ukranian War memes (2494 total as of now): https://memes.sucho.org/

"The SUCHO Ukrainian War Memes Collection"

Anna Rakityanskaya, 2023

Since the onset of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022, internet memes about the war have been widely disseminated through social media, both in Ukraine and abroad. The Saving Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Online (SUCHO) initiative uses crowdsourcing to collect Ukrainian war memes. Community submissions are curated and published on the interactive online SUCHO Meme Wall. The resulting archival collection is diverse in its content and format, preserving an important element of Russo-Ukrainian war discourse and offering unique material for research and teaching.
