I am from Russia and I've been shaking for whole day for what Putin is doing. I couldn't even get myself to go to work today. I'm in complete shock. It's like one day waking up in Third Reich.
Gotta protect East Ukraine from the Nazi-devout Jewish leader!
In all seriousness I do feel for you. Protesting against this will do little and get you in trouble so you’re basically forced to watch. You’ll need to accept these are things out of your control for your own mental health. Hopefully diplomatic efforts resolve it quickly.
What I don't understand is how so many Russians seem surprised. Is the Russian propaganda that good?
As someone from the west, this is whole development is not surprising at all.
Even in the past week so many didn't believe it would happen. Meanwhile I've been watching the news the past week or two to see if they've invaded yet.
