Just left Ukraine for the first time in a while and I get asked on public radio why I should have sympathy for Russians This is the problem with media and why no one understands what’s going on in Ukraine. This is what we’re up against with the mainstream... media. Ukraine matters.show more

Not sure who the host is but fuck that guy, what a stupid ignorant question.

Brilliant, sir. 1000 percent correct. Frankly, how you held your temper is amazing, but you're a professional and answered the question clearly and accurately.

"Both-side-ism" at its worst. The good is not so good, and the bad is not so bad. Thanks for correcting this droll, smug POS.

How stupid and ignorant you should be to ask this question. It’s like to ask: do you have a sympathy to intruders who are in your home, barricade themself in other room, YOUR ROOM, and want to kill you and steal your kids and your property. WHAT A ACTUAL F*CK?

Thank you for voicing this out!

Unbelievable that he asked you that. Has he not seen what happened at Mariupol? How Viktoria's body was sent back, mutilated?! The video of russians castrating a Ukrainian POW?!?! These are all intimate, intense acts. Profilers will tell you acts like these display personal animus and rage. Russians despise Ukrainians for being Ukrainians, for resisting, for being the inheritors of the Kyivan Rus legacy. How can you claim to be a journalist or on top of current events and not know this? I am livid.

Thank you for presenting a clear picture of what is happening in Ukraine 🇺🇦. The world's people should take the time to understand what the conflict is about. It's a Putin genocide. 🇺🇦🙏💔🌎

"Different language" first of all this is not a war of "languages" (Russian propaganda sometimes tries to present it that way). Secondly, many Ukrainian soldiers on the frontline speak the same language, but they don’t want to be Russian, suppressed, and subjugated by Moscow.

I do find it sad that the Brits didn't have more empathy for the German lads flying over London in 1940. I mean, they were just young blokes following orders, weren't they? It seems so sad that people cheered when their Heinkels and Messerschmidts got shot down.

Great job Caolan Also the interviewer said "just speaking a different language" not "maybe speaking" It's another reason why know the "brotherly nation" canard is a ruzzian lie, because when they find russian language speaking Ukrainians, they torture and murder them.

Thank you for this. Followed.

In one of your recent videos, when you lied about Navalny, I assumed you had just misspoken in the heat of the moment. But now it is clear that you are shamelessly lying and spreading disinformation about Navalny’s stance on the war. Why are you doing this? This is disgraceful.

Too young to know what happened before 2022...😉

No sympathy whatsoever for Russian invaders, rapists, and murderers!

Asking why we should feel sympathy for ruzzians is like asking us to feel sympathy for Epstein, not his victims.

i’ve noticed the same, most ppl just get headlines, not the real context. that gap is huge

When you meet a Russian, and they know you are Ukrainian, they never ask how you are doing or say sorry for what their country is doing. Never show empathy. They just don't give a f☆♤k...

Well said, thank you! 👏👏 I hope you are interviewed by a lot more media & this message is widely shared

The Russian soldiers are not 'Just like Ukrainians' Russian soldiers invaded Ukraine to murder Ukrainians and rape and pillage that which they conquer. So no. They are not nice guys. Every Russian soldier is a mass murderer. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE.

Good, keep telling the story. Americans need to hear it.

Thank you Caolan 👏

Well said. We need to call the narrative out on this.

Liar🤥

Dude, Navalny was NOT happy about the Russian invasion. While it's true that most of the Russian soldiers and citizens have little to no empathy for Ukrainians. Keep stating that Navalny never contested Putin's invasion is simply not true.

perfectly said! (I am of the same opinion personally)

👏 Well said and Molodets' молодець. You are exactly right, this is a huge problem and we all have to do more to keep informing people of the facts and realities, of ruzzia's illegal aggression against Ukraine.

it genuinely shocks me how ether stupid or apathetic so many people are!

Well said. I feel like turning the question back on him. Would he have empathy with armed robbers if they kidnapped his family?

Must be annoying to get all these silly questions. Whenever a dumbass reporter/pocaster/pundit or whatever asks "why can't you just get along" you have to make them remember what they've seem to forgot: mass killings, attrocities, tortures. Some people make it hard to stay calm.

Thank you Caolan for your impeccable work… Deepest Respect … #SlavaUkraïni 🇺🇦💙💛💙🇺🇦

Exactly, Ukraine matters!
