On the morning of July 27, the cruise liner Astoria Grande arrived in the Georgian resort town of Batumi. The ship was carrying more than 800 people, most of whom were tourists from Russia.

Protesters held signs with messages like “Russian warship, go fuck yourself,” “Abkhazia is Georgia,” “Russia is an occupier,” and “Go back to your fucking country.” Additionally, they carried photos of Abkhazia and the 2008 Russo-Georgian War, and played the Georgian national anthem, according to the outlet Batumelebi.

    I would bet any of the ones taking a cruise aren’t using much (if any) of their resources to protest the war. Fuck them. If the bourgeoisie wants to be welcomed somewhere, they shouldn’t let their nation become an enemy.
