Cheering on Ukrainians killing Russians isn't "cheer-leading for a tragic war". It's cheering for victory over evil.

As for "having no part in it", I'm literally in Kyiv right now, for good reasons. Among them being there's a big Bitcoin community in Ukraine and this trip I did two panels at Bitcoin events.

You're ultimately just trying to make excuses to let evil go unpunished. Evil that if not stopped in Ukraine, will certainly continue to spread. Russia has been invading neighbors for centuries. As a Canadian I'm well aware of the fact that Russia and Canada share a long northern border, and Russia has been challenging Canadian sovereignty in the north.

I didn't know you were in Ukrainian, so your situation makes a little more sense to me now.

I'm not trying to justify anything or take sides in this "good vs evil" fight, only trying to make a point that I'm so far removed from it that it does not make sense for people like myself to have strong opinion on it. that said seeing people celebrating killing whether justified or not makes me uncomfortable because its not something people do without being intentional about it

Celebrating the deaths of evil people doing evil things is not radical or unjustified in any way. It's perfectly normal, and healthy.

Any reasonable person should be able to figure out good-vs-evil in this conflict.
