Just remember, Putin has had several assassination attempts, but failed due to either one of the people involved getting torture to damn near death and squealing out, or because they bugged and tracked everything. It does sadden me seeing shit like this, but also the fact that there are people in Russia protesting the war makes me have a sliver string of hope. Since Eastern Europeans/Slavs fight till the end no matter the cost.

(Also, I am really happy no one has bashed me for being Russian since that is common now for me on other sites)

Most people don’t know that Russians and Ukrainians of present time do not hate one another.

It has often been depicted in the west for so long that Russia is evil that people believe that it is still like that.

Fact is, the Russian people have many ties to Ukrainians, it is their leader who sucks balls, fuck Putin.

My grandma hated Russians because, in her time, Ukrainians were being starved and slaughtered. The older generation had a reason to hate due to their own experiences.

Today’s Russians don’t want war, it’s unfortunate Putin is a tyrannical clown.

Anyone who comes at you for being Russian just isn’t educated.

True

High agree. I will always stayed by that Russia is a great country from culture to music to everything in between it is the people who run it who fucking make it awful and dreadful, so yeah fuck putin

Yeah, Soviet Union days I understand the hate. Many Eastern Europeans especially the older generation hate/d the Russians due to the starvation and everything so I get it.

Agreed. And I am sure some do, since Russia glorifies it kind of like America to some degree, but seeing the videos and all I can tell times are changing which is great.

Agreed. It is as I mentioned before the whole "Oh you are Russian therefore you agree with them" and the fact I still call it my homeland, which it is because I was born there, but you can't help the uneducated.

Elon Musk just announced Starlink is running in Ukraine meaning they have the fastest internet access in the world. Russia won’t be able to block their internet unless they attack foreign data centers.

Good cripple their damn economy
Honestly, won't take much to do. Russia's economy was already pretty awful.

Also, again don't know if Grim has posted this, but a good majority of Iranians are protesting in Ukraine and Iran, I think. Also, I got an e-mail from one of aunts, still waiting for some others to respond, who still live in St. Petersburg, and she confirmed that they have been protesting non-stop and that her and my two cousins are protesting and haven't been arrested, so sliver lining I suppose.
