Early in the Russian war, I remember people calling for mass arrest and persecution of ordinary Russians in response to the war. Technology, democracy whatsoever has no effect on savagery. There's even a fight, I believe in Turkiye between Europeans against Russian tourist there.Because the public is more informed and the feedback from regular people to the political class is much stronger now due to technology, democratic countries must be a lot more careful when it comes to doing atrocities. This is why they haven’t done anything similar in the last few decades. On the other hand,
Why should they ? Nobody else is doing it lmao.for autocracies like Russia and China there is no pressure from the public, so their leaders are free to act like in the past with no concern for human life or even their own image.
I’m just saying that democratic countries act in a more civilized way today, because it is harder for their leaders to get away with atrocities like they did in the past. There is no such barrier for the likes of Putin.
If the West is civilized , than Russia is civilized too, because what they're doing, they just happen to be doing the exact same kind as you do. Maybe Putin should start issuing medals hehe.
