Mike, from Los Angeles, suggested that if anyone sees a stand-alone post from a source that they're unfamiliar with, it's best to "proceed with caution." The same should be done with posts that haven't been verified by the social media platform.

"I would urge the people of Russia to completely ignore the national and local news that is being fed to them within their own country. For Russian citizens, they will actually get a more accurate representation of what’s happening if they turn to the large social media platforms, where people are posting from outside Russia," he said that Russians should strive to get a clearer picture of what is actually going on with the war in Ukraine.

I am Russian. Living in Moscow right now

This week is probably one of the worst that I have ever had in my life. My soul is draining when I see that face of my country (even though, I purely hate him and a lot of other Russians does, but, however, TV propaganda works great for older people and due to that there he still has supporters. And yes, his last election was 100% falsification) declares freaking war on Ukraine - nation, with which we have one of the strongest roots. F*ck war.

Also, about people not trying to act against him. Believe me - a lot of us does. However, it’s not that easy to start protest on three streets. Why? Several reasons:

1. Older generation is fully against it. So most teenagers, that would like to protest, won’t come.

2. After your protest you can probably lose everything you have. I am serious. Work, university (they can just drop you) and etc. Also you can easily go to jail. For a long time.

3. Right now it is illegal to bring a lot of people together on the streets due to pandemic. So government can without a doubt and with a huge smile just arrest you. Or hit you. Lots of times.

4. And the last and the most important one. Putin don’t gives a single f*ck about protest. He just does not care.

I am afraid of everything that happens. And totally against it. But the worst thing is (if we exclude lots of Ukrainian deaths, just because I cannot even think about it, because I just start to f*cking cry) after everything ends, Russian will be guilty for everything. Even so, most of them just want peace and war. No one cares - we are guilty. And we will carry this burden for the rest of our life...

Peace to everyone.

When it comes to posting information about the war on social media, it's vital that the information is correct. "If you’re unsure, don’t post. If you make a mistake, correct it. Double-check your information before posting with legitimate, mainstream, international news organizations. Avoid country-specific outlets," Mike said.

"If you see a post, and you’re unsure of the accuracy, don’t repost or comment. This just feeds the algorithm that could push possibly erroneous information to more people."

Shocked, angry, ashamed, but mostly f*cking terrified. I’ve been crying all morning. Putin doesn’t speak for our nation, we didn’t elect him, it was all staged. I don’t want war. I don’t know anyone who wants war. I’ve got family in Ukraine, lots of us do and it’s excruciating to read all the news.

We try to organise protests but it’s hard since this f*cking usurper got most of our protestants to rot in jail. But we try. It is scary to go cause all the protests end the same way with no results. But I feel that it [is] important to go and at least try to make a change.

We want peace. There’s literally no reason to start a war EVER. This is not my president, he is a killer and he must be held accountable for his crimes.

Meanwhile, the author of the emotional thread, u/Dull-Caterpillar3153, shared with Bored Panda how they feel about Russia invading Ukraine. "I personally think the situation is utterly horrible. This isn’t something that has been forced. They have chosen to go this way. They have chosen to take innocent lives. Sadly, many of the people in higher positions don’t care for human life in the way most of us do," the redditor said.

"Sadly, it appears that there is not much the Russian people can do. As many of the Russian people in the thread informed me, they have practically no say at all on the situation. Sanctions will have a strong economic impact on the country, however, more protesting could be effective," they said.

All I see in Russia is brainwashed old folks who knew nothing of the world, and young people who are helpless and don't know what else to do. Rest are just held hostage by the Russian government. In the end it's just one man's belief and control through state media. Even of Russia comes to war with the world, The only people suffering are the people who are already embarrassed and suffering one way or the other. All the economic sanctions affects the elite and normal people. Putin would still have his gold plate for supper. Just another Germany in the making. Attacking free-will of nations just because he could.

"It’s important to note that protesting should be done in a way that does not endanger Russian civilians. A safe and strong method to voice their massive worries about the situation could help the people in power see how out-of-touch they actually are. Some of these people seem totally robotic, however, even if the message gets through to just a few of them, then the protests will have been a success for the people of Russia," the redditor told Bored Panda.

Despite many Russians taking part in anti-war demonstrations, there’s barely any hint of them or the crackdowns against protesters in the local media. Instead, Russians inside the country are bombarded with the Kremlin’s anti-Ukrainian propaganda. Moscow is pulling out all the stops to try and find excuses for the war. Some, unfortunately, wholeheartedly believe the propaganda. Others, however, see the truth of the unprovoked invasion and side with Ukraine.

“The Kremlin has all but crushed Russia's independent media, and is gagging what's left of them. Ten publications got a letter late last week from the country's communications watchdog warning them not to use the words ‘invasion,’ ‘attack’ and ‘declaration of war’ under threat of having access to their publications ‘restricted,’” writes CNN.

I live 80 km away from Kharkov. This morning windows were shaking, jets flying, some bombs hit our own houses (absolute disgrace from our army, incompetent f**kwads). A big part of my savings for getting a better job and moving countries is turning into toilet paper before my eyes, undoing years of my work.

Can't speak for Ukrainians, obviously, everyone will feel differently about this, especially it will be different for the ones who actually lost somebody to this nonsense. However, from what I remember about my childhood (aftermath of the fall of Yugoslavia), there is a strong sense of hope and motivation to rebuild. If they win this war, these feelings will become stronger, as everyone will be focusing on rebuilding the country, probably getting help from abroad as well. Depression will hit afterwards, in delay. As for Russia, even Putin himself is being disappointed (obviously for different reasons), and the nice Russian people will have to deal with the damage and the consequences of the sanctions for years to come, besides the already mentioned psychological burden, and all the sorrowful feelings and despair. Also, even if Putin gets removed from power, what will be next for Russia? That's an important question they must be asking themselves,and I don't see it discussed much either

The economic sanctions imposed by the West are having a direct and noticeable effect on Russia. The BBC notes that ordinary Russians are also seeing the disruptions caused by the international community isolating the Kremlin.

“Ordinary Russians face seeing their savings wiped out. Their lives are already being disrupted. The sanctions against some Russian banks include cutting them off from Visa and Mastercard, and consequently Apple Pay and Google Pay,” the BBC says.

In response to the new sanctions, Russia doubled its interest rate to 20% on Monday, as the rouble reached new lows. Meanwhile, the country’s stock market is still closed.

CNN points out that the West removed some Russian banks from SWIFT. What’s more, two of Russia’s largest banks—Sberbank and VTB—have been cut off from direct access to the US dollar. Around $1 trillion worth of Russian assets have been frozen by sanctions.

I'm in an outright panic, shock, outrage, disgust, terror and horror over Putin and his clique starting an outright war. I don't believe in hell, but for him, his cronies and everyone responsible for starting this war (and all other wars, but this one especially) - hell sounds like an excellent place for them to stay for the rest of forever.

No one could believe the war would start until it happened - it made no sense not just from humane side of things, but from politico-economical side as well. Putin is now officially off his rocker, criminally insane, and anyone supporting him should be considered an accomplice in his crimes against humanity.

And as someone, who is both a male Russian citizen of conscriptionable age and was born in Ukraine and still has close relatives there - it's twice as terrifying (and it is indescribably terrifying already).

The difference today is that we get to see and hear the Russian people, learn their views, in a way we did not in 1939. We know that many do not support this war and can feel for them too. I worked with a German lady in the 80s, she was in her 60s at the time and she remembered that time well. She said they were told such rubbish about the French - they were told they ate babies. They even believed they didn't wear normal socks (weird I know but this was her story, not mine) because they were not shaped like German people. Never underestimate the power of propaganda.

I’m f**king horrified. I can’t believe this is really happening. I have already packed an emergency kit, withdrew all our dollars (not much) and rubles (worth next to nothing at the moment). There are lots of bots spamming that Ukraine gets what it deserves, but it’s not f**king true. Many celebrities have already called for the politicians to stop the war, the young are already getting arrested for anti-war protests as of right now.

I have donated to some of my Ukrainian friends to help them escape and I can only hope that they will be as safe as possible. I also have downloaded maps of most of our neighbouring regions and was kind of making a plan to seek refuge in Latvia or Estonia, but apparently we will not be welcome there, and we are trapped in a country governed by an elderly man who we couldn’t really believe was THAT mad right until today.

As someone who lives in Russia and grew up in Ukraine, I’m shocked, terrified and crushed. A couple days ago we couldn’t imagine something like this but now, when it’s more than real, it seems like the worst is yet to come. I’m deeply embarrassed and upset of how it turned out. The actions our government took will throw us back to the nineties politically and economically, but that’s not the most important part. People will die, thousands of families will suffer and our relationships with Ukraine will go through something they won’t recover from.

Stay strong, fellow Ukrainians. For whom it may concern, we’re sorry.

We are sorry for that. 90% don’t want a war. What’s happening now is a tragedy.

We didn’t elected our officials and now they give their own opinion as the opinion of the people. We understand how much problems we will get because of VVP. Especially economic. We had the highest inflation ever since 1990s. After todays actions our life will be worse, people are poorer and the whole world will be against us.

We thought that there won’t be any real invasion or military conflict. But today the seal is broken. We know that VVPs plane left Moscow about 11:00 pm. We don’t know what will happen next. Just want u, especially Ukraines, to know that we r sorry for your losses. We DONT WANT WAR. nobody want it.

A saw videos from telegram. It’s frightening. Nobody wish u troubles and deaths because of ambitions of our president.

All I know from social media is that Ukraine army doesn’t react to Russian military. The are not counterattacking them. We know that civilians get injured, some of them are dead, we saw how our army destroyed civil house. That terrible. Shame to all who are participating and promoting this conflict.

I am ready to go to the metro or bunker. My documents are ready. I am afraid too, because western world should answer.

Wish u luck and health. We are humans for the first, not citizens.

Today, while I was on lectures, someone hanged posters on balconies, so they could face the streets, with writing such as "Stop the war!" and "Putin get out of the Ukraine!". When I came, there was the whole f**king police squad, looking through camera footage to find those people. From what I've heard, those guys will get expelled, if not sued for extremism. For a goddamn posters.

So yeah, suppression of public disapproval is no joke.

I've talked only to a certain demographic of people, a.k.a. university students, but there's almost universal disapproval of the invasion. There was one exception, but the girl who approved has family in the government and nobody likes her. At all. So she doesn't count.

As for the general atmosphere, everyone is on edge. I'm really anxious. My roommates are too. One of them says they'll go to the protest, if there will be any.

I remember a line from an 80s song; 'Do the Russians love their children too?'. I think it was intended as a critique of the propaganda that we were all expected to believe about the old Soviet Union and how unkind the people were portrayed to be. Since that era, we have met Russian people, worked with them, shared a beer with them and understand that they are just like us and share our dreams. Of course the Russians love their children and it must be heartbreaking for them to see their young sons and daughters sent off to a war that no-one wants and if Ukraine falls, the economic sanctions will cripple Russia. I have sympathy for the Russian people but not nearly as much as I feel for Ukraine. Go UKRAINE.

I am someone that has been regularly accused of being a Russian bot (I'm not, but I have generally been on the pro-Russian side of most arguments). I have previously supported Putin and have even supported the actions in Crimea. I have also listened intently to his justifications for this conflict.

However, I am done. I draw the line at actual conflict. Life is too precious. No one should be dying. I have family in Ukraine and this disgusts me.

My mother (a senior), who has always been even more pro-Russian than me, to the point where I would call her brainwashed, has today said "Putin has finally lost his mind".

The reality is this: Russia would not be having an issue with their neighbors had they spent more time on economic development. Ukraine would not want to upset Russia by joining NATO if Russia was actually a valuable friend, trading partner, and ally. Geopolitical ambitions can be achieved through peace and economics.

Putin has failed economically. That documentary showing his palace was shocking. I don't see Navalny as a viable political leader, but that documentary was absolutely damning. And Putin's lackadaisical response made me double down on my belief that it was authentic. How many hospitals could have been built with the money that went into that palace? How many people's lives could have been improved?

Now, after that, we are supposed to believe that he is a patriot acting in Russia's long-term security interests?

My heart goes out to anyone and everyone affected by this.

I weep for my country that we couldn't save. I weep for Ukraine and her people that have nothing to do with it.

But my feelings don't mean a thing in regard to the feelings of Ukrainians.

I am so sorry, for the bottom of my heart. For the pain and terror Ukrainian people have to endure this moment.

All of this is a freak show, the words of the supreme leader (tm) have nothing to do with the reality of Russia. You know what f**ks me up most? The supreme leader (tm) has been talking s**t ton about the heritage of WWII and how much Russia had to endure, and that the memory of those days cannot be forgotten. There is a war song every one in Russia knows and learns in schools. It starts like this: "On 22d of July, at 4 am sharp, Kiew was bombed, we have been told, that the war had begun". This MF starts war in Ukraine a day after the day of Defender of the Fatherland, at 4am, on 24th of the month. How cynical, perverted one's mind should be to do such a thing?

Horrendous and awful. I feel very sorry. And no single word can express how sad I am about the fact that this crime is happening right now and I personally can’t do anything to stop it.

I hate that this happened and we're as a Russian nation didn't stopped the dictator who went absolutely nuts. This day is forever gonna stay in a history as the day of shame and guilt for the things we've done for our brothers in Ukraine.

Everyone I know is grieving here, because war has came to every single house. With the news of killed civilians, with the ruble falling down and prices getting skyrocket high. With feeling of betrayal for all of our friends and relatives in Ukraine.

I have lived in Russia all my life. And I am very disturbed by what is happening. Even though I am far away from the sites of action, safe from missiles and other things. But what Utin is doing is like the actions of an insane person. I'm against that. Aw, man, what are you doing?! Stop it.
+ I live poor as it is: I don't have enough money to fly to vacation somewhere, to eat something good, to buy myself what I want to buy. And now I don't know what's going to happen, life's going to get even harder. Living in Russia, unless you're someone from the government or something, is a pain. And Russians have their own joke about "only sad people in Russia" and "Russia is for sad people." This joke, among other things, came about because of the crazy state power. Our government thinks only of itself, not the people, and the Russians can't cope with that. /pardon me if there are mistakes in the text/.
I'm worried, and I just want peace. Ukraine has become a victim of a crazy ruler.
Me and my young peers are against Utin's actions, my dad too, a lot of people are against the war and all this, because all adequate people understand that war in the 21st century is nonsense.
And I also know that the Kremlin has a lot of bots that support them on the Internet. Kremlebots. They just write on YouTube or other social media about how good Utin is. There are live people who support the president, but I don't understand these people. I think they were paid to comment. Either they are very old people who believe the fake TV news, on which everything is not as it really is.

What Putin does is unforgivable. His disregard for human lifes on both sides of the border is beyound moral event horizon. It's painful to watch that many our people (even some members of my own family who are old enough to have witnessed the horrors of WWII themselves) are so blinded by propaganda that they can't recognize the obvious and still support this vile disgusting man. Others myself included just feel powerless. We can voice our opinion on the internet all day long but we can't vote Putin out of power because how rigged the election process is.

I woke up in horror, my newsfeed was filled with reports of war and fighting... I was honestly hoping we will not attack Ukraine (maybe all those troops we amassed on the border were just a show of power and nothing more) but apparently this is what is happening. Feels like I was literally stabbed, it's horrible that closely related nations such as us and Ukrainians are killing each other out there... The worst thing is that it is impossible to separate actual information and misinformation right now. Both Russian and Western news sources seem untrustworthy and bend the narrative to their will. On our TV right now there is very wierd coverage of the events on the battlefield mixed with assurances that we are right to attack and everything will be fine (I highly doubt that). Some Western sources say there are Russian hitsquads hunting down some specific Ukrainians from some "list" or something. This all seems insane. To all the people who live in Donbass, Ukraine and to Russians who live near the border I wish strength and resilience. Ordinary people got dragged in a conflict of power-hungry opportunists.

In my spare time, I'm an avid hiker and reader, enjoy writing short stories, and love to doodle. I thrive when I'm outdoors, going on small adventures in nature.

Russia's people fell prey to the same problem many others have in others nations, such as the US/UK (Trump/Farage-to-BoJo).

Unfortunately, my temper gets the best of me, and I don't try to be calm and educating. For anyone who thinks I harsh on Russia? My opinion of Trump fans is even lower than it is of Putin's.

It's devastating. Makes you feel hollow and brittle on the inside. What Putin did was so wrong and outrageous that it left many of us in shock, struggling to believe this is all actually happening. The sheer degree of hate speech in social media is alarmingly high. On some pro-Kremlin websites like RT you get banned for expressing your criticism. Any criticism if fact. And no one knows how far it'll go and when (or if) it will end. Even so, I cannot start to imagine how much harder everything must be for the Ukrainians. I'm sorry guys, I so wish we could stop him before this mess...

@Viktor Feurer : It is not so much a problem of age as a problem of failing democracy. Putin has been preparing his plan for more than twenty years, doing everything to gradually erode the democratic mechanisms with the (at least partial) agreement of the population, because the fall of the USSR plunged the country into a very difficult period and at the time, a strong man was needed to put the country back on track. In a functioning democracy, the risks are limited precisely because of the counter-powers. Even if the risks are not totally eliminated, we have seen the demonstration of this with Trump, who could potentially have become a kind of American dictator.

The first comment in that thread says that a couple days ago they couldn't have imagined this happening.. When in reality Russia started invading 8 years ago . This isn't actually new news. Canada has sort of an alliance with Ukraine, we've been helping them establish and maintain their independence for over 30 years now, and since this started has been in Ukraine for the last 7 years helping train them to fight back. This has been ongoing for a while now. And on that note, Russians have had 7 years to do something about it and haven't yet. I assume they are essentially powerless towards this, overgrowing a dictatorship would take nothing short of an internal war. Don't hold your breath for them to stop it themselves

Recalling your military would be seen as a weak move, and he's always been petrified of looking weak. It would be his downfall, he'd see it as am invitation for the world to walk over him. The good news is that he's started it all on his own. The rich friends of his will not want to lose everything they have gained. I'm just stunned that he has the nerve to say he's trying to free the Ukrainian people from neo-nazis when Putin has his own people arrested or worse when they speak out against him.

War is going on every day for equally stupid and pathetic reasons (like one dork like Putin arguing over land like it’s the Stone Age). Maybe this one will open people’s eyes that fighting over this shît is a complete waste of everyone’s time and life. But it’s happening all over and always has been. It’s just a big deal because Europe and superpowers are involved. War in Syria and Myanmar are still happening and Afghanistan is in shambles. And all of them are over shît that has no place in 2022.
