  Do Russian citizens not deserve to make an honest living?
  • Anon659 4y ago
    The money from the sale will eventually go to Russia. This post means nothing. They publicly call the war in Ukraine a "special military operation" - like Russian propagandists. And they continue their activities in Russia, answering questions very rudely https://dou.ua/forums/topic/39415/ https://dou.ua/forums/topic/39415/

      They claim they use the phrase "special military operation" because the law requires them to. https://twitter.com/flipper_zero/status/1503384498402119690 https://twitter.com/flipper_zero/status/1503384498402119690

      As a Ukrainian, I don't care if they sell in Russia. This is a boutique product for a very small community. It's not a huge corporation. Let them make a living. The complete absence of common sense in these discussions worries me.

      “We are radically against the ongoing "special military operation" and none of our team members support it. All sensible Russian-speaking professionals in the IT industry adhere to the same opinion.”[0] Notice the quotes and asterisk around the phrase special military operation. From a follow-up tweet in that thread: “ We refer to these events using the "officially approved" wording in order to comply with the new law, violation of which is punishable by up to 15 years in prison.” [0]https://twitter.com/flipper_zero/status/1503384492731510792?s=20&t=1tEXggJ9IoEXBAAUcbDoBw https://twitter.com/flipper_zero/status/1503384492731510792?...

    > Do Russian citizens not deserve to make an honest living? Do Ukrainian citizens not deserve a life free of a war of aggression caused by Russia's invasion? Sanctions are mild inconvenience for Russian citizens compared to what Russia's government is imposing to the Ukrainian citizens. Not that I would defend Paypal though, they are a shitty company. Russian citizens can earn an honest living after Russia leaves Ukraine and pay trillions in reparations as the result of the killings and the destruction in Ukraine.

      What about Donbas residents continuously harassed and killed by Kyiv for over 8 years?

        Russia will pay for this too, as Russian aggression did begin in 2014, and not just now.

      This kind of thinking is called collective punishment and ordinarily is discussed as a human rights violation.

Yes, Russia bombing civilians in Ukraine certainly is a human right violation indeed, that's the collective punishment Russia's government is imposing on Ukrainians citizens. Russia is punishing its own citizens as well they'll have to collectively pay Ukraine back of all the destruction their government caused, for the centuries to come, after Putin is long dead.
