- GrigoriyMikh 5y agoDear Comrade, you're very wrong if you think that i'm pro-Putin. But i'm also disappointed in heroification of Zelensky that is currently so common in social media.
- halfmatthalfcat 5y agoYoure disappointed about a leader whose country is being invaded not bowing to pressure and rallying his people? Not sure what your criteria for heroism is but it doesn’t seem particularly based in reality.
- octygen 5y agoIs it "heroic" to enter a war with no official support from the West then call on the West to help you? This isn't a movie. This is people dying because he won't give up his right-wing dream of a "free Ukraine" that will still have to do business with its giant neighbor and will always be under that neighbor's influence. Canada is the same for the US. It needs to play the game. Taiwan is the same for China. It plays the game. Is it "heroic" to stop men from leaving the country so they can fight a war they have no interest in fighting? That seems a bit like he's infringing on their freedom, no? Why is this ignored? I think OP wanted to make a point that Z is not all sunshine and rainbows.

- typon 5y agoI think a lot of what is wrong with the world today can be explained by the observation that people have a hard time understanding two things can be wrong at the same time.
- GrigoriyMikh 5y agoYeah, i noticed that as well. People love to choose sides and even change their own judgments just to fit into closest side. E.g. left vs right narrative is a perfect example. That's very interesting drawback of humans. Would be interesting to see research into that. I think that's definitely the thing that we want to solve in the future to build a better society.
