Is Putin in the room with us right now? Don’t worry, he can’t hurt you.
This is completely wrong, because of course Putin absolutely does hurt people. He ordered the invasion of Ukraine and the killing of Ukrainians. His forces deliberately target civilians, or massacre them, like in Bucha. His actions have also killed innocent people from other countries, such as those on board flight MH17, who were killed by a Russian missile. He also orders the murders of people he doesn’t like, such as Alexander Litvinenko and Alexei Navalny (the latter’s murder being unsuccessful, but nevertheless ordered by the Kremlin). And one such assassination attempt, on Sergei Skripal, killed an innocent British woman, Dawn Sturgess. So no, it is clearly untrue to say that Putin can’t hurt someone, unfortunately.
I haven’t been on Lemmy in a while and only just saw this reply.
I don’t think I missed the point. You said that Putin can’t hurt people, and I’m saying that’s untrue. He has ordered the murders of political opponents. He ordered an invasion of Ukraine that has killed many innocent Ukrainians, and is also sending young Russians to their deaths, pointlessly.
And no, I obviously don’t think I’m on the front line. I’m lucky enough to not be in a warzone, but there are people who aren’t that lucky, and their lives are in danger due to the selfish barbarity of Putin and his regime.
lol, immediately goes for “Russia” or “Putin propaganda” the second he’s told something that makes him uncomfortable.
You’d do a lot better on reddit or twitter, your people are over there.

Are you one of those twitteratis who believe they’re on “the frontline” because they live in a city?
Way to miss the point. Or just playing dumb, which doesn’t make you look as smart as you may think.
