(I say this as a person who is 100% against this invasion).
However the circumstances is that the IntelliJ founders are Russian, and it’s important to point out that it is not the will of the Russian people to invade Ukraine. It is Putin.
That people follow the government does not mean they agree.
And anyway there’s been a steady stream of propaganda fed to the Russian population, it’s folly to say this isn’t Putins will being projected onto his people.
The same way that the nazis got power with 30% approval and managed to use that power to go to war with the rest of Europe.
I’m not saying it’s not dangerous, I’m saying it’s not all Russia. And IntelliJ are saying as such.
Thanks for clearing that up. There are commenters on HN who have a vested interest in Russia taking eastern Ukraine.
