I legitimately feel bad for the Russian people as a lot of them don’t agree with what’s going on and had to either leave the country to avoid getting jailed for protesting or are forced to suffer in silence.
i know few of them personally and generally those who live outside of Russia are against the regime and those who live inside Russia say they are not affected and are apolitical or that all countries to the west are controlled by US and want to steal Russian land + resources.
It’s also funny to hear what they get to hear in tv aside from UK like that time they were told that in Europe it is so dry that people don’t have water to drink or that people are freezing in winter because no RU gas
From what i know, Russia has about every conditions we know(freezing winters, pefrost, rain forest,…) If talk about Moscow and St. Perterburg, those are not that hard to live in due to wheather AFAIK
Nah they are enjoying from drama movie like capitalism, richest have everything, mafia (bratva) is integrated into goverment and poor people don’t even have electricity.
I run a, let’s say… “Social Club” on discord (Okay it’s an Erotic Roleplay server) one of our regulars is Russian, I actually worry about him quite a bit. He wishes he could leave the country, he’s very lucid of the entire situation.
(Edit: I said he was 18+ instead of Russian because I get confused and word association happens. Of course he’s 18+. It’s an erp server literally everyone is.)
I buy dolls from one of the biggest toy makers on Etsy, and I helped donate to her fund to escape eastern Ukraine when the war started.
It might not seem necessary, but details like that humanize who we are talking about and allow us to emotionally resonate with the speaker and the subject. It’s how basic human communication works.
the majority of Russian people very strongly agree with the invasion, remember, Navalny might be the strongest opposition, but he was for even more radical reconquest of “Rightfully western Russian soil”

Yeah I’m not sure how much the geolocation has to do with it. Scandinavia seems to be doing just fine. Perhaps even “very well.”

did you really have to mention that you run an erotic roleplay discord server just to say that some russians want to flee the country?
That’s literally our association he is in my server. We are very close knit group and we care about him and worry for him.

True, but it’s a minority.
