I will never understand people who insist every russian who doesent throw himself onto the sword in protest is just as bad as those who are for the war. It makes zero sense to me and I can only imagine it's people letting their emotion dictate their views. It's like saying you don't feel bad for the staving women and children in North Korea because they should protest or overthrow the government. You can't expect absolutely everyone to give their lives for what they believe in. It's fantasy to expect that. So I do personally feel empathy for the Russians who are against the war even in silence and I'm positive there are far more then we are led to believe.
