I legitimately feel bad for the Russian people as a lot of them don't agree with what's going on and had to either leave the country to avoid getting jailed for protesting or are forced to suffer in silence.
I run a, let's say.. "Social Club" on discord (Okay it's an Erotic Roleplay server) one of our regulars is Russian, I actually worry about him quite a bit. He wishes he could leave the country, he's very lucid of the entire situation.
(Edit: I said he was 18+ instead of Russian because I get confused and word association happens. Of course he's 18+. It's an erp server literally everyone is.)
did you really have to mention that you run an erotic roleplay discord server just to say that some russians want to flee the country?
That's literally our association he is in my server. We are very close knit group and we care about him and worry for him.
I buy dolls from one of the biggest toy makers on Etsy, and I helped donate to her fund to escape eastern Ukraine when the war started.
It might not seem necessary, but details like that humanize who we are talking about and allow us to emotionally resonate with the speaker and the subject. It's how basic human communication works.
