    Without the civilians’ intentional passiveness Putin would be unable to wage this war.

    The choice to not know is a _choice_. It is a political decision. One that people make around the end of their teenage years, but a decision all the same.

    That decision is what keeps the murder going on.

    Also, these drones are not targeting civilians. They are okay. The Russia redirecting them into homes in order to protect Russian military targets is on the Russia’s own responsibility.

      Some Russians have resisted, so I don’t see why you’re talking about all Russians having made a moral choice in aggregate. Grace is a choice, also.

      There are those I cannot give grace and forgive in my life, but failing to stage a coup against a murderous tyrant does not make me hate all Russian people by default (and I extend this grace to myself as an American, albeit with more effort at times).

      Always, some can overcome the propaganda and see through the lies, and then also have the courage to resist. Expecting it of everyone reveals an incomplete knowledge of humanity.
