No politics here. This forum is the place to discuss Dropbox clients problems and supporting bloody regimes is a problem. And it is not only about Dropbox. Every business should cancel russia. It is the only way to stop the wild horde from east.
And do not call you Ukrainian Jew - Chai234 seems you are putin's Jew, infected with kremlin propaganda. You are still using kremlin fakes to talk about historical personalities - read history books based on facts and forget about russian mythology.
My grand grand mother buried on Babyn Yar (recently was attacked by russian rocket - the family with children died there).
My grand mother with grand father moved to Stryi (West of Ukraine) in 1943 to hide from hitler nazi and russian communists.
My relatives from St.Peterburg moved to Israel a long time ago (so they were not infected with this propaganda).
We do not call us "Ukrainian Jews" - we all are Ukrainians (does not matter what religion we have).
And Yes, as it has never been a hate speech (only in sick russian's fantasies), Glory to Ukraine, Glory to USA, Glory to EU, Glory to Israel and to all other partners. And glory to all heroes who help us to protect from russian fascism.

So, your family suffered, you percieve Russia was the cause of that, and now everyone in Russia has to suffer? People should lose their jobs, their children should go hungry? Is that what you want?

In truth, many people suffered in the history of Russia and Ukraine. This is a domestic dispute. Domestics are the nasty fights, and people on the outside should just stay out of it because you risk escalating things more.
Russia has done many terrible things, Ukraine has done, and continues to do bad things. There are many idle people in Europe now wanting to also do bad things. Let's think about the consequences of WWIII. Let's realize we have it pretty good still, and that we can help refugees get on with their life at the current scale of the war.
If nuclear war breaks out, we won't be able to help anyone, even if we survive. Racism against Russians is the same as racism against anyone else. Sanctions are a tool nations can use to rein in certain behaviors. It's not necessarily a bad thing to sanction countries, but in reality both belligerents in this war need sanctions, not just Russia. People are pouring in money to a corrupt government that is opaque as any banana republic stereo type of corruption.
I don't support banning Ukrainians, even North Korean from accessing the free world. Isolating people just escalates things. The problem here is nobody listens to anyone anymore without resorting to ad hominem attacks. If Dropbox bans Russians spuriously now, they will block your data next. Mob mentality won't stop at one issue. You will eventually be consumed by it too.
Finally, nobody cared when Armenia was attacked mercilessly by Azerbaijan based on race in late 2020. It was horrible, but Azeris still had dropbox, as they should. After the brutal senseless war, Armenia has made peace with its enemy who genocided half its population in 1915. Now trade begins and people hopefully will move on to fruitful enterprise. After all a large part of Turkey used to be Armenia. They aren't that different. The sooner people decide to act rationally, the happier everyone is.
And yes sadly, war between Russia and Ukraine is what made peace between Armenia and Turkey, but it's a silver lining worth remembering.
