    In a way, can you blame the average Russian for being afraid to speak out against leadership, whatever their personal feelings may be? Ever heard of Lenin? Stalin? The Romanovs? Political dissidents are not and never were treated kindly in Russia.

      yes I do!

      I have friends who left russia or belarus for speaking out what they think of this perverted vision of russia! They did not held back and it’s the fault of the russian people that they have this leadership, because they rather accepted it for all the years instead rising against it!

      Putin has all the power because not enough people fought him!

        If only all Russians were so brave. Not sure I would be in a country where you can be arrested for literally saying Two words.

          then do not wonder if at some point in the future they still knock on your door and deport you and your family…

                Right, so in other words, not “all russians” are cunts. Which is exactly the point ive been trying to make.
