We came to visit Russia as tourists

Boy, my sympathy went to 0 pretty damn fast. Might as well have said they went to Nazi Germany as tourists.

edit: grammar

There was a whole Olympics hosted by Nazi Germany.

So Russia's worse than Hitlers's Germany?

I don't know if media coverage and public awareness about the atrocities are high enough in India to make that judgement.

Russia sell oil cheap to India, so they are good?

The argument is basically "they've never done anything to us, so we're good". But yeah the cheap stuff must help.

You are a victim of propaganda, indoctrination, and tribalism.

Or maybe it's just a bad idea to play tourist in countries that are engaged in active war

Weird how you just moved the goalposts from "Russia is a bad nation" to "it's only bad because it's in active war."

You will never acknowledge how you're a victim of propaganda, indoctrination, and tribalism.

I'm not OP lol

To me this story is about idiots visiting a nation at war and ending up a part of it. Big surprise

Then why are you replying to me?

Make your own comments.

Lemmy is a discussion site my dude, replying to comments is what it's for. If you don't want replies, send a PM

Yes, but you're replying to comments that have nothing to do with what you're saying.

Just start your own chain instead of trying to hijack others.

you're replying to comments that have nothing to do with what you're saying

Makes irrelevant comments like "You are a victim of propaganda, indoctrination, and tribalism."

Ok I'll stop feeding the trolls now, have yourself a nice day

Not really.

You just don't like what's being said so you pretend not to understand it.

I see it all the time and don't expect more from people like you.

Got any links to news stories about tourists in Ukraine getting forced into fighting for them.

Take your time. I'll wait.

Or how about Ukraine intentionally targeting missiles at apartment buildings and purely civilian infrastructure with no military value just to murder and terrorize people just trying to live their lives.

If there's anyone here that's a victim of propaganda and indoctrination, you'll find them in the mirror.

What does that have to do with anything?

Why are you so delusional to set up bullshit criteria and think you should be taken seriously by rational people?
