Kowtowing to the corrupt state is to condemn one’s children and grandchildren to suffer through insecurity, cruelty, retribution, and poverty. The action you promote might reduce your own risk of personal injury, but only by transferring it to future generations. It is selfish, short-sighted, and destructive to progress.
But at least you admit cowardice drives your decision-making. It is not, by the way, something you should claim with pride.
You are thoroughly mistaken if you think Ukraine is any better than Russia. In the Panama papers, Ukraine exceeds Russia and in terms of far right wing violence Ukraine far exceeds Russia.

This war is not black and white. There are millions of shades of gray in between regardless of the constant nauseating fellatio of everything Ukrainian by the western media.
One is a democracy improving itself, the other is a goddamn dictatorship. Don’t be stupid.
There's a line from the Bible: "those who through fear of death were subject to slavery all their lives". This isn't exactly the way the Bible meant that phrase, but... If your position is that preserving life is the most important thing, and I can credibly threaten to kill you, then you become my slave. You'll do whatever I tell you, to try to save your life. That's a horrible way to live. It's even more horrible when the one doing the threatening is a sociopath.
I think some things are worse than death. "Live free or die" isn't just a propaganda slogan. A free life is far better than a life as someone's slave.
End the suffering, agree to what Russia wants, get NATO out and end the war. Zelenksy is a master actor and he played the role well. It's time he stopped crying on global platform 24x7 and drag the rest of the world into his war.
