Man, every time I see videos like that, my heart breaks. Those are actual human beings with families, loved ones, hopes and dreams... (I know Russia does much worse things to the other side, but that doesn't change the feeling. Most conscripts are just brainwashed cannon fodder :()

Fuck war so much...

@Firipu @Wilshire No. There is internet access in Russia. Every russian knows what's going on.
No pity for the orcs. They come to murder.

That's a very simple way of putting things imo :)

The west also has internet access. Some people still end up hateful/believing in flat earth/conspiracy theories.

That doesn't mean they're bad people, just very misguided.

@Firipu It is always strange that there are people who pity the perpetrator and not the victim.

The war on Ukraine is not a natural disaster. It is made by russians. Go Figure!

[–] Firipu@startrek.website 5 points 2 years ago

Oh, I feel equally bad, or even worse when I see what happens to Ukrainians. My heart bleeds for what they're going through.

That doesn't mean I can't feel empathy for individual people that get killed in the blink of an eye...
