Are you saying western Europeans are worth more than Russians

Depends. Which Europeans? Don't forget, Russian Federation is a capitalist country, and despite everything that the media is trying to claim, a pretty standard capitalist at that. So consider: Russian citizens getting droned and shelled and shot are, by and large, proles. The people making decisions in Paris, London, Berlin - are not. And the people making decisions in Moscow, St Petersburg etc are quite likely to own businesses, real estate, have families in those European cities. Perhaps even double citizenship - there's been some stats regarding Duma members with double citizenship.

With this in mind, I think your question has a sad, unpleasant answer.

Agreed, it's those comprador elements that brought us to the two options being either 1. WWIII/ mass death or 2. Western/ white supremacy. If you keep bending, then the western powers are gonna see how much.

Edit: also agree that all those oligarchs live in isntrael and Europe and don't care about everyday Russians.
