Not that I need support. I'm Russian, but I've never been particularly proud of it. It's not my achievement to be born Russian.
The state in which I was born no longer exists, and those that do exist instead do not excite me.
All these Belarus, Russia and Ukraine are all the same shit to me.
I hope I'm conveying my perspective clearly. It's not about our respective citizenships. It's our shared language and culture that binds us. Having lived abroad for most of my life, I've observed that in the US, anyone who speaks Russian is often perceived as Russian, be they Ukrainian, Uzbek, or Georgian. Surprisingly, we often find a deeper understanding among each other here.
When we made nostr, my hope was that every country would use it, and talk to each other. You can solve a lot of problems this way.
