But countries that constantly drop non-nuclear bombs on other countries and murder civilians and children are still cool, right? USA only averages 46 strikes per day for the past 20 years. So maybe the cutoff is at 50.

Majority of employees being Ukrainian seems to be a major factor here. Maybe if they were based in Iraq they would have cut off the USA then too.

  This isn't just about them. This is happening to Russians with nearly every western based service. There are Russians stuck in the EU because their credit card company blacklisted them. Where was this energy when the US was taking a flamethrower to the entire Middle East region? Really eye opening and I'll never forget this.

    Yeah it's not all about them but you can bet the employees were wanting as big a reaction as the company could give after they are being invaded. Can't expect fully measured responses, in the end this is a relatively little disruption compared to what they're going through

Muted for two reasons: (1) racism, as many people have noted, but also (2) the fact that the regimes the US was taking a flamethrower to in the middle east were ones that the international community would have acted against previously for war crimes, etc., even despite racial bias against the targets, but for superpowers standing in the way (notably, in the case of Saddam’s Iraq, the United States itself.)
