On that note - I'm from Ukraine. Helped my mother-in-law get out of Kyiv in March, and went back to Ukraine in July with supplies for soldiers that weren't available locally (military radios and a bulletproof vest).
I also worked at Google on their Location team.
I am choosing my words with care, and I stand by them. In particular, the choice of the word dystopian. And lack of humanity is one of the reasons this war is happening. Dystopia starts in the minds.
Also, please don't exploit the war in Ukraine to needlessly police other people's speech. If you want to show support, that's not the best way.
