    I honestly don’t know why some on here seem to think that any criticism is a defense of Russia. I did not say anything in defense of Russia but assumptions were made regardless.

      It’s seen as what-about-ism.

      Painting everyone here with incredibly broad brushes and very certain tone means you’ve lost the trust and good will of your readers.

      They then see what I said in the first sentence of this comment.

      It didn’t need to be that way. You’re on Lemmy. It’s one of the places a person is most likely to see frequent criticisms of US warfare by US citizens. But you’re acting like the actions of an aggregate nation are the reflection of unanimous and ongoing support.

      It’s not an accurate perspective.

      You still sound absolutely certIain that everyone here is as you describe. And that means you’re wrong.

      Please stop, breathe, and recalibrate. Because done differently, you’ll find many here agree.
