migmitDuring a crisis a lot of things become simpler. And wars are definitely crises.
Before 24.02.2022 you could say Zelensky is a bad president, and still be pro-Ukrainian. I was.
After that date, if you badmouth Zelensky, you're a Putin propaganda outlet.
And when the war ends, you'd be able to say that stuff again, and still be pro-Ukrainian.
Before 07.10.2023 you could be pro-Gaza, but against Hamas.
After — if you "stand with Gaza", or "stand with Palestine", you're a terrorism supporter. Plain and simple.
And when that war ends, you'd be able to again condemn Israel for many different things and remain a good person.
Of course nothing is absolute, but still, a lot of things became clearer. More focused. That's how it works.
