Hi All.
I've avoided the forum the for the last week or two because I'm disgusted and saddened.
Now I don't care which way you people stand on who's right. Russia or Ukraine. Nato or whatever. I don't give a flying fuck.
The bottom line is that right now as you all comfortable people sitting behind a keyboard in your high priced properties are happily digesting your Michelin starred meal, there are literally millions of Ukrainians without food, water, electricity or heat. Now I don't expect any of you to understand what an Ukrainian winter is because most of you have not simply lived through one, but the ghastly cold, no water and lack of shelter is horrendous.
Now for those Russian supporters, stop for a moment and consider what the West's sanctions are doing to the regular Ivan. Their currency is trash. They are getting kicked out left, right and centre from world events. Nobody will do business with them and they will not have a viable comfortable future like you do simply because Putin is bent on regaining Ukraine.
Either side you are on, stop for a minute and think. You smug and self-important keyboard warriors, pappie, oppie, russkie, ukrainie, whatever. You are sitting comfortably and pontificating on your own self-professed importance and intelligence with all your comments.
All I'm asking at the end of this post is for you all to spare what you can for the poor citizens of Ukraine and Russia. Both will suffer. Whether it's for the West's hypocrisy or Putin's delusions of grandeur. The regular Ivan or Ivana is going to pay the price. Whether, you guys give $5 or $5000000 or even a moment's prayer or goodwill, please spare a small slice of the cozy life of yours for those poor people who will have to suffer. As in all war, glory goes to the leaders, the suffering goes to the regular people.
Peace and wisdom be upon you.
