Live map of Russia advancing into Ukraine

West, east... same shit. Snowden can't stay in his own country, Assange is prisoner of conscience. Michael Brown in Ferguson, Iraq and "weapons of mass destruction", etc... etc.

I'm from Russia, we have no much freedoms here, shitty healthcare, corruption and other crap, but when I look at the West, it comes to me that I have already seen it somewhere.

False equivalence. Again.

The West is U.S. and Denmark, Sweden, Ireland, Spain, France, Slovakia and Canada and many others.

So no, you don't look at the West, you look at some of the countries of the West with the worst human rights track record and use this as a reason state equivalence, where there is none.
