#facing an ugly regime with words against massive force is the definition of heroism

[jeddara-of-jasoom]

You cannot be for the opposing side and their actions and "values" in the least if you actually risk your freedom and safety to protest against them.

The bravery of people who stand alone and face the regime, nothing in their hands but a sign

Russia is not monolithic, no matter how much the regime tells you they're "united"

The people who support the regime have 100% freedom to say what they say.

Those who oppose it are of course afraid to speak.

But some still do anyway. Even after all the examples they have of protesters arrested, harsh sentences. Horror stories of what happens to some.

Some people in Russia are still free. The freedom in their hearts won't be crushed, even if their physical freedom is taken away.

If freedom still burns in one heart, there is hope, because it can ignite thr freedom in others' hearts and eventually spread like wildfire.
