  • I am not sure if this question is serious or if you are just trolling me, but whatever. I will answer.

    Russians think of Ukrainians as their property already and are OK with killing and robbing them. So if the Russia conquers Ukraine we can have something like Red Terror again to teach Ukrainians a lesson. Then, it will be sanctions against language, culture, etc. And economical disadvantages like gathering resources and work force from Ukraine to compensate the losses in Russia leaving Ukrainians in poverty. Especially, because of Ukraine hasn’t surrendered peacefully, what made a lot of shame for Russia thus giving more hate towards Ukraine.

    Maybe I am exaggerating, but I am not expecting something good from people who think that they can on random occasions come and get other’s lands even in relatively peaceful ways. And then simply start killing them once they refuse to comply. I do not believe in the possibility of that Russians have changed a bit, especially if we recall a lot of negative actions towards Ukraine and its ancestors in past from the side of Russia and its ancestors that were done in similar conditions compared to nowadays.

    Note: I cannot predict what exactly may happen but definitely nothing good, especially if we simply extrapolate history and analyze current and past situations.






  • How policies of this company are related here? I agree that Amazon abuses their workers, but the workers have a freedom to leave this job. Government doesn’t force them to work there, it only participates in the creating of conditions that may force people to work there. While, as I understand, Russia is going to oppress Ukraininas on a level of government in case of successful conquering of territories. And I haven’t even mentioned the overall hate of ordinary Russians to Ukrainians.

    So, as for Ukrainians, having the West model of economy versus government and social oppression from the East is not a hard choice to pick up.


  • Same, same, but different. I agree that both these cases can be classified as influence, but, at least as I know, the influence of the West has no intention to occupy Ukraine or turn it into puppet state. The West mostly needs resources, democratic alignment and overall stability, while it has no interest in wiping out the national identity of Ukrainians and abuse them, unlike Russia. So, between 2 evils it would be better to choose the lesser one.
