@thor Exactly!
But this hatred was fueled for some reason since the very collapse of the USSR, since the 90-ies. I don't know why. When I went to Kyiv I've felt safer there than when I was in Moscow. No one had any problems with Russia or Russians, when Russia didn't try to act like the "older brother" and just left them alone.
But a lot of Russians never travel — because they are too poor. So they can be fed any propaganda bullshit like Ukrainian Nazis — how crazy is that?
@thor I mean, there certainly are some far-right guys in Ukraine — like in every other country. And it became a self-fulfilling prophecy. The Ukrainian right wing nationalists were right, now that Russia really attacked!
All that the sane Russians feel now is shame. And powerlessness unfortunately. We did let the state turn into the monster we have now, but now it's not only us who suffer.
