This is a really fantastic article that explains why Ukrainians may not be fawning over the Oscar-winning "Mr Nobody against Putin", the way that the rest of the world is.

This screenshotted part especially correlates with my own experience. I have personally witnessed at least one fellow western journalist crying "bigotry".

@aliide@mstdn.social A Ukrainian commented on the "russian nazis fighting on Ukraines side" trope: "For us, there's no good or bad russians. The divide is between 'useful' and 'not useful'." And I agree. Ukraine doesn't have the luxury to be morally zealous about it, and there's no obligation to differ between the "good" and "bad" russians. If they are not actively supporting Ukraine, they are useless at the minimum.
