I got carried away. I apologize to both you and EugeneOZ. However, could you please point out what personal attack you mean, @dang? I am asking genuinely to learn. I see now that I did not argue in a constructive way and I am sorry about it but I honestly did not intend to personally attack EugeneOZ. I was not saying that I hate him or anything like that, he is clearly not responsible for what is going on in Ukraine. I was trying to re-frame what he perceives as hatred and explain it as people being hurt, something they do not necesarily control.

EugeneOZ, to put it absolutely clearly, I know you bear no personal responsibility, you do not deserve hatred, and if you understood it that way, there was misunderstanding caused by me and I sincerely apologize.

I didn't see any personal attacks from you, actually. Some frustrating words, but nothing personal ;)

I’m sorry if some of my words were offensive - no personal attack was intended from my side.

P.S.: russians also have that proverb about the mirror :)

Thanks for the kind reply, I appreciate it! To answer your question, I was referring to

> That is the thing you do not get - when you read about it in history books, it is not the same as experience something yourself.

I'd say that's condescending. Also,

> you read one unpleasant comment from one guy on the internet and you are already

is unduly personal.
