Decent Russians distance themselves from Putin and are ashamed of Russia. Even high-ranking diplomats do this. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/05/23/world/europe/russia-diplomat-un-geneva.html Hopefully, more and more Russians will become decent. #StopPutin

I'm from Russia. Putin is my hero. I'm not against my hero i am against war and brutality.
If you are against war and brutality, how can Putin be your hero? Putin has started a brutal war. Putin sends soldiers who murder civilians and rape women. Putin had entire cities like Mariupol destroyed. Isn't that brutal enough? Can someone like that be your hero?
Construction, health, education, transport everything free that's why he is my hero. I'm not talking about politics
I'm not talking about politics either. I'm talking about brutality and war. Hitler also did a lot of good for many Germans. Construction, health, education, transport. Was Hilter a hero?
Everyone has two sides one good and one bad. But the saddest thing is we know people by their bad actions. I'm nothing. Being a Russian and Russian nationality holder Putin govt gave my family shelter and basic needs for free. Zalesky is undermining the agreement of the free state and joining hands with Nato which leads to war. The people of Russia know the reality. Putin is protecting us from Nato actions and restrictions
The Germans had said the same thing. Hitler brought them work and prosperity. The Germans knew nothing about the crimes of the SS and Wehrmacht in the Soviet Union. And when someone told the Germans that their soldiers were murdering and raping, they didn't believe it. The Germans were convinced that Hitler was protecting them from the communists. That was the reality of the Germans in the Second World War. Just like the reality of the Russians in this war. Hitler told the Germans that he had to invade the Soviet Union because the Soviet Union was threatening Germany. Putin told the Russians that he had to invade Ukraine because NATO was threatening Russia. Many Germans believed Hitler and many Russians believed Putin. Very, very sad.
> Everyone has two sides one good and one bad. But the saddest thing is we know people by their bad actions. No, good actions must be praised, but bad actions must be punished. If a criminal has murdered someone, he must go to prison, no matter how many good actions he has done. You cannot celebrate a murderer as a hero just because he also did good actions. A murderer is a murderer.
