Don’t Forget Who The Bad Guys In This Story Are

We’re all on the same side of history

Debates and discussions are starting to annoy me.

We’re not the bad guys.

What I’ve seen past two years and in an explosive speed last months is that people are attacking each other about their opinions. Discussions are getting out of hand, and we are polarizing our countries and society.

It’s all about the Russian invasion, about the war that Vladimir Putin started against Ukraine. People are putting these situations into context, and that’s not always liked by many people. Often, they are associated with the fifth column of the Kremlin.

But we must not forget that these people aren’t our enemies.

Putin is the bad guy in this story. He invaded Ukraine, and only he is responsible for the invasion.

Let’s be cautious in who we call our enemies.

It’s The Same Story

Years and years we’ve seen countless wars on record of the United States where many people (also civilians) have died ruthlessly. Only because the US was going to bring ‘democracy’.

That didn’t go that well, did it?
