If you’re Russian, you’re responsible for this war.

Even if you're not holding a rifle.

I had a conversation with a friend a couple of days ago. She said, “I don’t think I am responsible for what’s happening in Ukraine. After all, it’s not me who’s invading.”

True. She’s not the one holding a rifle.

But here’s the thing: neither am I. I didn’t choose this war. And yet, simply because I’m Russian makes me a part of this terrible thing.
