As to matters of fact, I am at a disadvantage. I can only argue from what I believe is true. And that information is certainly likely to be corrupted through propaganda efforts given we are in what people call 'the fog of war'. So I will accept your versions of the facts given that you live there and I don't. And I'm sorry if I inadvertently spread any propaganda or misinformation. But where we disagree on facts and I still think I'm right, I'll try to find sources.

I don't really have time for debating, nor the inclination. But I am a curious person still.

I guess Russian language was taken out of schools. And the Russian Orthodox Church was banned because it was seen as a tool of the Kremlin. You can see how people would have opinions on both sides of those facts.

I don't believe "might makes right." Nor do I believe in stupidly defending your rights when you know it will get you killed. If you came to take my home by force and I couldn't defend myself, I would find another place to live. But of course I would leverage my relationship with the NZ government to get you kicked out.
