Ukraine

I feel like with these videos, it’s always the Russians that are puppets to their government. Never the ones that oppose the war.

Yes and no, it's not like e.g. NFKRZ doesn't complain about things like banking sanctions and the increased difficulty of getting visas.

I’m not saying all Russians are like that, but nobody knows if a person is or not. So they’re making quick judgement

With many, it's easy to tell, straight up Z people generally tell on themselves very quickly, Anti-Z folks are also easy to spot even if they're holding back (just because you're not in Russia right now doesn't mean that there's no consequences for your speech), it's the depoliticised bunch that's the issue. In more than one way. OTOH while those may have an absolute void of an opinion on the war in particular, they generally do have a sensible opinion on civilian casualties and stuff.

Or, differently put: It's all too easy to ignore all that, to avoid looking at the actual person, by making too quick a judgement.
