There’s a shitload of hatred towards Ukrainians by Russians online. Saying they just consider them their brothers is laughable, some absolutely hate Ukrainians and want to eradicate them and erase their identity (and saying how they’re just Russians while also saying they’re pigs or something(?))




There’s a lot of Russians who live(d) in Ukraine. Those of course are going to be welcomed in Russia. And there’s Ukrainians who support Russia over their own country, those are going to officially be well received too. So there’s really not big disconnect between the hateful attitudes and official proparanda.
And sometimes they treat Ukrainians as “brothers” in the sense that they’re denying their whole identity as Ukrainians.
