      I care about the people there. Same with any oppressive nation/state/province/etc. You can say Russia is a tyranny and you’d be correct, but don’t forget that there are certainly people living there who don’t agree with the regime – and there are people actively being oppressed.

      Surely you don’t think there aren’t any gay Russians, for example. Let’s not throw out all the people who are victims of Russian oppression while we condemn the country itself.
