- ABoredBirb 4mo agoTl;dr: Sanctions on oligarchs bad, they forced us to support russias war, woe is me. I am so so so very brilliant. I support the war effort, yet take no sides and make no moral judgements. Do not put more pressure on russia.

- WheelsAtLarge 4mo agoI get what you are saying but anyone that apposes the government will likely end up dead or in jail. We hear about it all the time. As a group the oligarchs have power against the government but as individuals they really don't. They just smile and continue to do what made them rich.
- itsmeagainhere 4mo agoYou think you know what goes on in Russia, but you actually understand not so much. Get it into your head: what goes on is that your country (your country's capitalists, not joes like you of course) wages an occupation (this is the final goal, unless you hide your head in the sand) war against Russia, and Ukraine is just a tool, as it happened before in history. And if I, a person living in Europe, understand that perfectly, what do you imagine Russian people think?
- avmich 4mo agoNo, that's not accurate.
- itsmeagainhere 4mo agoUnfortunately it is much closer to truth than the western version of events
- happymellon 4mo ago*looks at Ukraine* Nope pretty sure thats Russia trying to occupy another sovereign nation, not us.
- happymellon 4mo agoYou can downvote me, but my country has not invaded Ukraine. It has not been providing support to Israel to bomb civilians, it has not attacked Iran to distract from Epstein files.

- itsmeagainhere 4mo agoLook at the mirror, american ubermensch
- lenkite 4mo agoAs a non-American, it is bitterly funny to hear a NATO citizen say that.
- e40 4mo agoSorry to hear this. I was hopeful of pressure on Putin.
