    Just think how the Ukrainians feel when your country launches missile strikes on schools, hospitals and residential buildings.

    My sympathies are with the Ukrainians not the invading occupiers.

      It’s not how it works. I very well remember how Ukrainians were laughing at people in Donbass for “inviting” Russians. I very well remember how my friend born in 2001 in Crimea who received a Russian passport was detained by Ukrainian authorities when he came to claim his Ukrainian passport. I know the Russians, who now complain about the drone strikes, were mocking Ukrainians for hiding in the subway. I saw a lot of Reddit posts that were praising live footage of Ukrainian drone operators for killing Russian “mobiks”. I very well remember how fast the video of cutting a penis of Ukrainian PoW was reposted in Russian media.

      Now you have no sympathy for a person who presumably develops ptsd

      Fuck, people do not have collective empathy.

        she moved to occupied land during an active war becoming a participant in the occupation. She does not show any empathy towards the people whose land she is occupying, yet you’re asking us to have empathy for her because her occupation is not going as planned?

          Nope. Read Geneva convention once again

          She does not show any empathy towards the people

          Empathy is never earned

            Nope. Read Geneva convention once again

            “The Occupying Power shall not deport or transfer parts of its own civilian population into the territory it occupies.”

            Only thing I could find that’s relevant, but doesn’t apply since she moved there on her own accord. Mind helping me find the section you are thinking of?

            Empathy is never earned

            Why not?

        I don’t understand what empathy you believe is justified here. Empathy for a supporter of the invaders? Empathy for a settler probably stealing a home from someone? Does that make sense to you?

            She suppresses it. She’s an azzhat for not feeling with Ukrainian people whose flats and houses and hospitals and schools are being bombed for four years now.

            Piss off, ruzzia shill. You deceive noone.

        if you move to a place that’s been invaded by your country you don’t deserve peace.
        even in the video she said she doesn’t want to return to mainland.
        i know there are good russians who oppose the invasion, but they didn’t move to crimea

          First, you don’t know her. Shit, you don’t fuckin know anything.

          She might have her own reasons to stay there. It so happens that people in Crimea have relatives both from Russia and from Ukraine. You have no fuckin idea how close were Russia and Ukraine before the war.

            Imagine how close they could be if Russia wasn’t illegally invading and trying to steal land and resources? If Russia acted like a normal fucking country instead of a corrupt shithole.

            Do tell us how close we were when r*ssian propaganda was allowed for 20 years, when r*tards from sevastopol always whined how they are being mistreated, how tatars became even more of a second grade citizens on their own land. How it was ‘bloodless’ occupation, how everyone in crimea was r*ssian speaking, do tell. I’m all ears, it’s not like here are people that actually lived in crimea for whole their lives before occupation, right?

              Man, do not tell me that you are from Ukraine and do not have relatives in Russian or Belarus. I just won’t believe you
