Last month there was a Russian woman asking for donations on Twitter so she could move. Apparently she fled Russia cause she got in some legal trouble for protesting against the war. Anyway, a bunch of the comments were pro-Ukraine liberals berating her for being Russian, saying stuff like "oh what about the poor Ukrainians who have to move, huh??". Being an anti-Russian Russian is... a thankless job to say the least. 🤨

When the whole thing just started, I saw a fellow I knew from school posting photos to vkontakte. It was him at some anti-war protest with a "I am ashamed to be Russian" banner. The kicker? He lives in Canada, and has lived there for a decade, if not more.
Imagine if some white dude moved from the US to China for few decades and started going on about how they’re ashamed to be American.
great idea, I might do it (im not american)
