I am just old enough to remember how rare it was for Russians to really be exposed to western media.. Remember how hard it was to get Pavel Bure here? Or Sergei Fedorov in Detroit? Back then, you'd see them in the Olympics every other year and that's about it. Now they're everywhere, because they are great people like anyone else. And now they are going to go back into that shell, and their money is worth less than pennies. It's such a shame.
OR, they could have just not invaded.
I get that they want to protect their western border, but it's not like NATO is an imperialist faction set to rule the world... They just want to protect themselves from... well, Russia! Jesus.

That's honestly kind of sad, just cause there's so many innocent Russian civilians that will end up being dragged into this.
Russia has always been a bit shady, but I guess in their perspective, NATO also can't be trusted. They're just another (group of nations forming a) potentially opposing superpower.
In theory, if every nation was invited and joined NATO, we would have world peace?
