#Russia opposition writers Shenderovich and Bykov are occasionally attacked as "traitors" for not supporting Putin and supporting #Ukraine, including financial donations to ZSU. Shenderovich describes a message he got from a Russian teacher who was trying to shame him for "sponsoring bullets which will then kill" her mobilized students.
To which Shenderovich replied:
> Alas, the real choice today is not between keeping your former tenth-graders alive or having them murdered (with Bykov and Shenderovich's money). The choice looks different. Your former tenth graders — these "poor", kind and nice guy in particular — will be sent to kill Ukrainians. And of course I still feel sorry (individually) for him and his fellow villeins, but forgive me — I feel much more sorry for the free people they will kill. Including children.
