Tbf they are in the same category, just different size. Ukrainians aren't the first victims of russian empire, they are the first who fight back with a decent success. Many others are russified already - their history and identity erased, yet they are still second class citizen cause they don't have "slavic" facial features.

But my original point stands - Ireland not only selling alumina to russia but russians owning a whole whooping plant in Ireland is literally worse.
