This has happened once before and they reversed it. But they said this last time too:

The discussions that have happened in various threads on Lemmy make it very clear that removing the communites before we announced our intent to remove them is not the level of transparency the community expects, and that as stewards of this community we need to be extremely transparent before we do this again in the future as well as make sure that we get feedback around what the planned changes are, because lemmy.world is yours as much as it is ours.

A state and it's people's interests aren't the same.

Take self-determination movements; the people in eastern Ukraine want to leave, the state of Ukraine doesn't want to give up territory.

Supporting the state in this case is opposing the people, supporting the people is opposing the state.

If I was in Russia, I'd have pointed at Syrian Kurdistan before the US invasion/occupation of Syria.

More lies from lemmy.ml, no surprise. The people of eastern Ukraine want to be part of Ukraine. Even the Russian speakers in Ukraine want to be part of Ukraine 2:1.

That was in 2014, there wasn't even a coherent Ukrainian state and they were going through new presidents every month. A lot changed over the next 10 years. Western Ukraine was shelling Eastern Ukraine right up until the day of the invasion.
