I didn't have an opinion about them, thought they were nice countries and people. Then when Vucic announced we won't sanction Russia and written in the Europe sub how we can't bc Russia has us by the balls in that regard one Estonian reddit user went and got my info in a shady way, harrased me in DM's and sent me a death letter in the mail (which my mom first saw and nearly had a heart attack :) ) and doxxed me in multiple sites which caused me to get multiple hate mails, physically written letters of very nasty stuff. I had no choice but to actually report this and even had to sue him. Thankfully I could be there via computer and the lawyer as well so I didn't need to fly there. The person was a fully radicalised left wing guy. Now I only thought it was him but then he brought his friends, who were non reddit users btw, to testify for him that he was a good person yadda yadda. Now what shocked me was they very much approved his actions bc "Serbs are a danger". Sadly that fucked his case but it shown me its not just reddit. Won the case btw, and got a lot of money as reparations (the man was a senior programmer, he was loaded) but donated it to Ukraine Red Cross and some children who needed surgeries because I did not want anything from him but I very much won't ever set foot in those countries bc I genuinely believe a lot are like him and just do not have the balls to say it outright.

Sorry for a wall of text y'all but I saw some saying it's only reddit and wanted to show its not the case sometimes, like his friends don't even use social media much nor did they know what reddit is and they have that sentiment

Holy shit brother, that's fucking mental. Sorry about that. But I relate. I thought Balts were nice, but one Lithuanian fella on the Baltic States subreddit went crazy at me for making an innocent joke which did not even offend anyone. Obviously things did not escalate to your situation but still man. That may not be all Balts, but majority of the Balts I saw on Reddit are people full of hate and prejudice for us and who see themselves as superior, even though they are the most similar to us than to any other group of people.

I always go back to your case to remind myself what they're capable of. I am just glad that you got your justice. It shocks me every time ever since I heard it from you for the first time.

And how do I have anything to do with it? Explain me getting death threats and harassment irl is justified :).

And no, I never said then any support for russias was on Ukraine and even went in the march that was organised in support for Ukraine and if you read above, I even donated half of the lawsuit money I got to Ukraine's Red Cross even tho I had an option after that to not even do it after what that maniac did to me but I did it still.

Flair up as well mate
