Reply to comment by Ok_Goat8830 in Mothers and wives of conscripts from Russian Far East to be sent to east of Ukraine by HarakenQQ

How come?

There are plenty of Russians who haven't lived in Russia for years and have been openly and vocally against the invasion since day one.

Is it because they haven't personally assassinated Putin yet?

because I'm generalizing. I'm not saying that can't change on a person to person basis, but that would be my initial reaction.

When I say ruzzians, I'm referring to culturally ruzzian. The people who always bend the knee to authoritarian strong men, have no problem waging war and genocide against their neighbors, and only ever resist the government when it bites them in the ass. The Russian guy who fled to America 20 years ago and protested the war from the start? Not a ruzzian. The Russian woman who followed young Ukrainian girls around shouting pro-war slogans in Germany and getting upset she will be deported? That's a ruzzian. The Russian woman in NZ who literally helped her son flee conscription, but then went on to fund raise for the ruzzian army? That's a ruzzian. The people sitting at home, complacent in cultural genocide in Ukraine and buying into propaganda saying that Ukraine was a mistake? You guessed it, ruzzians. People like Navalny who tried standing up to Putin and lost it all? That's a hero, not a ruzzian
