I never advocated blind hatred. But I also don’t believe you can be a good person and stand by and allow this sort of tyranny to keep power. Those Russians fighting for Ukraine, would probably make a bigger impact if they remained in Russia and agitated instead. Putin has said, time and again, that he wants to wipe out Ukrainian people and culture. Russia is committing a genocide before the world’s eyes.

I’m not arguing all Russians are bad people either. I just don’t think you can be a good person in that situation while doing nothing.
