Disagree, the russian (and all other people who were part of it) people were oppressed during the USSR (pick up any book by Solzhenitsyn) and by the Czars before them. This did not start in 1991.

That is where I disagree. The vast majority of people do not have the ability to leave.
At this point any thinking person who has not left russia is complicit in the atrocities of their country and I couldn’t care less for their well being.
And the same can be said about the US invasion of Iraq. Any person there is complicit in the war crimes. (which I do not agree with)
Sorry but this is massively reductionist and jingoistic.
