    People keep pretending like the Russian government is completely separate from Russians. Somehow they’ve just always managed to end up with incredibly brutal and violent governments over the past few hundred years, but the poor poor little Russians are never at fault for that.

    Fuck them, and fuck that attitude.

      Are you talking about civilians or militants?

      If you talking about civilians, the problem with your logic is that everyone is complicit some way or another.

        They are complicit, just like Germans were before WW II.

          The thing is, eroupe still get energy from Russia. Which means Eroupe is complicit. Along with companies that sells electronics and other equipment needed to create and launch missile. These electronics and other military resources comes from deals with China.

          Nato and Eroupe and many other countries deal with China which basically support Russia directly.

          So where do you draw the line of separation between miltant government and civilians.
