And are powerless to stop it.

This isn't the country where big enough protests will do any good...

to allow the Putin regime to spread bigger and bigger lies to the Russian people? And all those Russian troops in Ukraine? They aren't Russian citizens? Then from what country of origin are they from? Mar-a-lago maybe?

My response is... "Any Russian citizen who could possibly see those pictures doesn't have the power to change the course of their government"

You can't possibly disagree with that, right?

The Russians need to be outraged at what Pooty has done in Ukraine. They are being lied to and need the truth told to them. The power of millions of Russians in the streets will affect change and help end the barbaric war Pooty declared on Ukraine in the name of all of Russia, that includes the name of all Russian citizens.

So I will ask again since you conveniently avoided the question. All those Russian troops are not Russian citizens? Then from what country of origin do they come from?

(A) I said Russian citizens who would SEE the photos. No Russian soldiers are watching TV right now.

The Russians need to be outraged at what Pooty has done in Ukraine. They are being lied to and need the truth told to them. The power of millions of Russians in the streets will affect change and help end the barbaric war Pooty declared on Ukraine in the name of all of Russia, that includes the name of all Russian citizens.

(A) I think the vast majority of Russian citizens ARE outraged. However they have no actual power to change ANYTHING. They're being imprisoned for protesting.





Your entire heartfelt post is stating:

Seeing the truth will end Russian gov't lies.

I'm saying anyone seeing the truth has no power to change the Russian gov't.

A small price to pay considering Ukrainians are dying in the streets. Ukrainians are being slaughtered by a madman who must be stopped.


Thank you for your concern.

I understand your emotion... and you're right.

I'm simply saying the Russian people aren't going to stop him. And the people who CAN stop him certainly already know what's going on in Ukraine.
