There are a lot of Western observers, who tend to present themselves as pro-Russians, that love to say "Putin should do this" or "Russia should respond to that" who seemingly believe that Russia is this entity, along with some of its allies, that's fighting a holy war against this evil globalist pedo LGBT empire in Ukraine.

I'm sorry to break it to you, but Russian soldiers are not dying because you hate homosexuals and kiddy diddlers.

They are fighting and dying to protect our children, our mothers, and our grandparents who laid 27 million lives to try and liberate the world from the evil of nazism, the handful of them who are lucky to still be alive, from the encroaching military coalition, masquerading as the defensive alliance, whose official policy has been to either destroy or dismantle my Motherland, to enslave my people, and to pillage it for everything that it has, as the 90's liberal shock therapy, when this very alliance should have ceased to exist, has shown us.

This doesn't apply to all of the Westerners, who claim to be pro-Russian. There are a ton of people from all over the world who understand and embrace Russian soul, some of whom I'd proudly call Russians. But those who I described above, know exactly who they are.

The sovereignty and the well being of my Motherland and my people has nothing to do with your culture wars.
