2014: Raid on the regional administrations in Donetsk, Luhansk and Kharkiv.
Beginnings of a war of extermination - and of reversing an illegtimate coup d'état, protected and organized by Western countries, as well as fighting for one's right to live not as a 2nd-class-citizen in the place you lived before.

At this point it is an imperialist war and there is no side here to choose. Russian imperialists vs western. Screw them all. Only change of the system. With this said I have relatives in Donetsk, although I lost connection with them a long time ago. But it hurts me to know what they have done to this region. But I have a class dislike (in case something more harsh is being monitored) to all capitalist- Russian and Western alike.

PS I cannot go to Dreamwith, it's been blocked by Russian government.

As I see it with that thing - the main conflict is between the interest fractions fighting over the bits they want to have from this region (Ukraine as a whole).
In between all this you have the normal citizens, but which, as I got the impression, also have their small interest in this thing being on because from Kiev they couldn't be expected to live as they want and be treated with human dignity at the same time.
So... it seems to me like there is no other way than to fight. Regardless of who sits in the background and wants to play his games.
In the end... when there are guys from one of those Nazi battailons standing before you, eager to kill you, you can't care less than doing what it takes to save your own skin. Let alone when knowing there are more of them out there wanting to do the same to others that live around you...

For the PS: Ah, crap. This went really fast!
Guess they've done that because they saw how fast it happened that some of their citizens changed the platforms as soon as the new ToS came out.
See if that stays so when the peak of the exodus is over.

Yup.


Right on.

Regarding it more in the details - first, there were these mass rallies all over the country, then, second, the shit in Saint Petersburg happened, and who knows what's boiling in the background and the underground still or again; it might be then that authorities in Russia behave extra-sensitive and don't take prisoners, when something like that happens what happens now in one of their most important social media platforms.
Saying, it's all a bit too much at once and this may add up to it.

Ah, well, and they have the relapse of the information war smacking in their faces in the form of this "nice" campaign that wants to accuse Syria again of being the only actor in its war who is capable and willing to use chemical weapons. Which, as usually, comes as a boomerang straight towards Moscow again.

No, they are not the victims. They are the same imperialists moving towards fascism dictatorship, that's all.

It's not about handing out blame in this point.
It's more putting things into context and drawing the conclusion how that possibly affects one's own doing and space to move, that's all...
Politics, no matter if noble motifs or not, at least would be the same in this point everywhere.

They have different motives. Protest movements. Real. Of working people.

Real. Of working people.

I always doubt that when someone tells it to me...
