Yo Jake, what is your reasoning here? For real, it isn't making sense to me.
I mean,
you are clearly capable of being perfectly reasonable, you demonstrate this regularly,... except for whenever this particular subject comes up.
There's a guy who does a bit of work on my forum occasionally, he's Ukrainian.
He's living there right now.
I can assure you that the degree of animosity you've often displayed towards "Russia"—is quite different to how the bro from Ukraine has shown me.
He doesn't hate Russian individuals.
He sees them as real people like you, like me, like himself.
Yet the few times when he's mentioned Putin,...shit gets dark af.
Comparing that to the way you seem to act hostile at "Russia,...your's doesn't seem genuine.
