Russians Are Strangely Stumped About Why Moscow Is Getting Bombed

“Who would have declared such a war on us in Moscow?”
After six consecutive days of drone attacks on the Moscow region this week, one would think the shock of sudden late-night explosions might compel some Russians to consider what Ukrainian civilians have endured during 550 days of relentless Russian attacks.
Instead, some residents near the Russian capital have taken to social media to vent about the inconvenience of being woken up in the middle of the night, question why the “international community” isn’t coming to their rescue, and blame Ukrainian “terrorists” for targeting civilian areas. (Never mind that Moscow has repeatedly attacked residential areas in Ukraine with Iranian-made Shahed drones.)
No injuries have been reported in the recent string of attacks, and Russian officials claim to have shot down most of the drones that they say caused only “minor damage” to a building in Moscow City and several broken windows elsewhere. Kyiv has not confirmed or denied involvement in the drone strikes.
Russian media widely covered the attacks, airing interviews with residents who showed off their broken windows.
“It was scary to go up to the window,” said one man recounting his shock to wake up and find his window shattered. “This is the first time anything like this has happened to me.”
Separately, he told Deutsche Welle, “At first, there was panic. I thought the building had been hit by a shell.”
“It’s very scary. What if it hits the house next time?” another resident told DW, noting that she has a young child in the home. “Who would have declared such a war on us in Moscow?” she asked, unironically.

they sent their fellow citizens and neighbors into Ukraine to rape and murder babies.. they shouldn't sleep another night in peace, ever again..
"they"
Ain't exactly a representative democracy.
Doesn't mean Moscow should be spared, just that the majority of the citizens didn't have any say.
The ones loudly protesting are probably culpable though.
Did Russia close all communication to the outside world?
I ask because if the people still have access to the internet then no, your statement doesn't track.
Either they were aware and said nothing, or were ignorant. Neither is acceptable.
LOL.
When i see in our democracy, how we fight to keep up our rights.... Well...
Oh, it's a daily source of anger for me. I'm well aware how fucked the average American is.
Dont worry, the same as european,
And I don't speak about fights to win new legitimate rights...

Most Russians only speak Russian, few news outlets outside Russia write in Russian, most of them are blocked, all news outlets inside Russia are either publishing what they're told to, or closed.
Most people have no way to know anything other than what they're being told. The ones who said something, got either jailed, sent to the front, or both.
They're still allowed to say loudly stuff that aligns with the leadership, so the only way they have to "protest" is to say it in a way so overboard that it becomes ridiculous. Like this complaining about drones at night.
Russian leadership needs to be replaced, but the citizens didn't ask for this. If your country went to war, what is there for you to do?
you just tried to equate "my country going to war" with "Russians intentionally raping babies to death", and i don't accept your equation..
if Russians had any honor they would feel the same, but they don't.. so i don't care what happens to them, they deserve it..
You're saying every Russian citizen has raped babies?
Most are just cowards that do nothing while it's happening.
They can sleep in the subway until Putin is dead.
If you're gonna be a coward, accept who you are and hide in a safe place while those with courage do what you what you were too scared to do.
You call them cowards for not doing anything but if push comes to shove I would put money on you doing jack shit too if you were in the same situation as the Russian people.
their ability to dodge is so natural, they don't even realize they do it anymore
you really are unable to stop shrugging your shoulders, aren't you.. you must be Russian..
No I'm just not a psychopath and have empathy for the people of Russia since they didn't choose this. War is just fucking shit for the people not in charge.
they can all rot in Hell
