  • being physically or economically unable to leave a country does not equal supporting putins russia, and how do all the minorities in russia that want their own independence tie into this? should they also leave what they see as a different country because on paper its part of russia? should all the remaining ukrainians leave ukraine were it to be fully occupied and used as a base to attack another country? you act as if russia isnt a truly large country that can be generalized to such extreme extents while theres enormous differences and disagreements within european russia alone

    putins russia is a genocidal regime and no1 disagrees with that, but problems of raging alcholism and learned hopelessness among the regular people aside it is not as simple a matter as you boil it down to. everyone have their own fights and many people simply do not have the courage or ability to essentially fight a country but that does not make them worse than others







  • The knowledge that for as much bad stuff we get up to, humans can accomplish truly mindblowing things. I think about it a lot in the context of science/technology and knowing that much of the tech that I use daily and take for granted is tech that people couldn’t even dream of just a couple decades ago. Excited to see what the future has in store on that front.
