If you can’t show empathy for murdered civilians just because of their nationality, are you really any better? This was a concert hall, not a military base. Think about what you are tacitly endorsing here…
Are you expecting me to tolerate the intolerant? No thanks. They don’t have any empathy towards Ukrainian civilians either. They rather encourage what is happening, be it torture, rape or murder and have imperialistic ambitions that stretch far beyond Ukraine, wanting to do the same to my country and others. So why should I care? If two scumbag factions murder each other then that’s a win win situation.
Russia holds almost 200 different ethnic groups (potentially less since they ethnic cleanse their own populations in the Ukrainian meat grinder), so no. I hold hatred towards a terrorist state.
I joined this instance a long time ago back when it was one of the largest. I’ll admit that it has become more niche since the Reddit exodus. Consider being less tribalist.
Edit: FYI, lemmy.ml is the instance run by the core lemmy devs. If that makes it a Tankie instance, then Lemmy must be Tankie software, so I trust you’ll be deleting your account and joining a Kbin instance asap.
They said struggle - not that they couldn’t. Dont just attribute such a horrible thing based on your own reading.
You can have all the empathy for the Russian people but no empathy for the Russian state. After all, the Russian state is also directly responsible for the continuous cold blooded murder of Ukrainian civilians. Not like they gave much warning on February 24th 2022, or in 2014.

Just to clarify, you hold ethnic hatred towards all Russian people?

That’s a lot of words to say “yes”.
Tankies once again proving they live in an alternative reality where they can just spin everything to whatever suits their confirmation bias.
“Everyone who disagrees with me is a communist”, lmao.
I said Tankie, my rashist lemmy.ml dude. And my thoughts aren’t a matter of your opinion either. That’s literal mental gymnastics.
