I haven't seen flags for at least a year around here, but there are like stickers on traffic poles

I think a lot of the flags are just kinda still up cause they didn't bother taking em down. Buuuuuuut also where I live has also had a huge influx of Ukranians since the war and well, they're the people that left instead of joining a nazi battalion and fighting and so that does need to be considered and they did live there and where they were living is experiencing material damage and expecting a greater international understanding of events is a bit of hard thing to tell someone who's home maybe got exploded. If you're not an internationalist, you're a nationalist and that's most people. I can't be holding every Ukranian immigrant under suspicion of nazism cause that would make me a racist, I'm certain some are and I'm certain even more may be just short of it and even more who might generally be more sympathetic under different circumstances could easily be more russophobic, nationalistic and NATO brained cause it's a war the place theyre from is losing and most people do have a massive nationalistic streak unless it's deprogrammed, so a lot are also just pretty normal ass apolitical workers taking the most obvious path and yknow being mad about all the explosions in their country.
