As the Russian government intensifies its grip on the internet, censorship circumvention tools like Tor are more critical than ever. Here's the latest on Tor censorship in Russia and how you can help by running WebTunnel bridges.
This is something more people need to understand. Just because Putin is the bad guy doesn’t mean that everyone ethnically or nationally Russian is your enemy.
Hell, with conscription and an estimated death toll of 725,000 on the Russian side, we need to start recognizing this as a profound tragedy for the Russian people. Most of these men don’t know what they’re even fighting for, and a lot of families are going to end up shattered as Putin continues to use these conscripted men as pawns.
Way too many folks out there ready to celebrate the Russian death toll while flinging around ethnic slurs (“orcs”) because they think that they’re somehow sticking it to Putin, the man sending his people to their death.
Nope, on top of being a part of an evil regime, a large majority of Russians are very anti-LGBT. So yea, I’m still team “Fuck those assholes” considering most of them hate my existence and want me to die. Also, let’s not ignore that if you take away Putin, the whole country still has a culture that encourages deception and backstabbing to get what you want. So yea, they get no sympathy from me. May they freeze in their shit hovels.
I remember at the start of the war on practically every reddit thread I looked at were full of Russian people wanting peace and cursing their government. Weird to see people dehumanizing the people who wanted nothing but peace and love.

Yeah the whole orc thing instantly rings dehumanization bells as we know them from Netanyahu and other fascists like Hitler.

Only commenting on the orc part, but that’s what russians call themselves.
