Protesters held signs with messages like “Russian warship, go fuck yourself,” “Abkhazia is Georgia,” “Russia is an occupier,” and “Go back to your fucking country.” Additionally, they carried photos of Abkhazia and the 2008 Russo-Georgian War, and played the Georgian national anthem, according to the outlet Batumelebi.

    To be fair, there are also Russians who oppose the war and openly speak out. Many also leave the country to escape the draft office and/or economic despair. We shouldn’t pidgeonhole an entire nation.

      unfortunately that’s how nations work… we sort of are forced to treat one another that way until things get fixed… you see? otherwise what’s a nation…

      i think a lot of Russians are about to learn that being Russian isn’t just a part of their online profile
