Pointman -
I am 100% against what your government is doing right now, however, that isn't why I am posting.
You have given a very unique perspective to this forum, one we are lucky to have - a perspective from someone within Russia itself. As you and others on here discuss issues which naturally get people's blood boiling, you keep answering questions with what appears to be a calm and more importantly honest reply. You seem to always have rational responses i.e. the one I quoted - why would I want my own income to suffer despite what my government is doing. This is sort of common sense, but easier to see when someone lays it out.
Your unfiltered perspective is something which we wouldn't of had 20 years ago in an event such as this.
Thank you for this.
