Nothing makes my day better than knowing a russian died

Not all of them are bad, and general hatred will just fuel the fire.

Blind hatred for a large group of people isn't "doing something"

I support Ukraine 100% and also recognize that we still all have to live on the same planet when this is over. Not all Russians are bad, a bunch of them are fighting on Ukraine's side.

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.

It will save more of them if they stop.
