    With Russia, it’s either you support it or straight to jail

    With Ukraine it’s the same.

    few Russians have the balls to stand up en masse let alone leave the country

    Ukrainians don’t even have the options of leaving the country, they are imprisoned by the government, with the support from the USA. And almost nobody is talking about that let alone condemning it. After all, it’s bad and is a violation of human rights only when countries USA doesn’t like (North Korea, etc.) do it, doing it with approval of USA is totally okay and humane! Right?
