Why don't you enroll as volunteer in the Ukrainian Army instead? 

I may just do that!

There is a Russian guy who rides around Jomtien with a Russian flag on the front of his motorbike and with a loudspeaker playing Russian military music. Not much different to what the OP is suggesting.

I speak some Russian (as a result of having had the misfortune to work in Russia for an extended period some years ago). The majority of Russians I've spoken to in Thailand are supportive of Putin. I had an interesting conversation one evening last May - three twenty-something Russian guys drinking beer at Bali Hai pier. They were telling me they supported Putin and the war, they just didn't want to get involved in the fighting themselves!

I think it is silly and dangerous. You might have a problem. 

 

Note : I am not pro-Putin regime or anything like that.

"spineless coward" implies that Putin is in the right and that young Russians should be fighting for his cause is indeed deeply problematic and wrong. You agree with that do you?

 

It's important to acknowledge that Russia's invasion of Ukraine is widely condemned by the international community, and is causing immense suffering and loss of life. Supporting Putin's war is not only morally wrong, but also perpetuates a dangerous and harmful ideology of aggression and expansionism.

 

The idea that young Russians should be fighting for Putin's cause is particularly disturbing, as it implies that they should be willing to sacrifice their own lives and well-being for a leader and a cause that are fundamentally unjust and harmful.

What does "what looks like a russian group" look like given the number of ethnic groups that live in that vast country called Russia?

Is easy to tell Russian comrades in crowd.   You never see before? (Please read in Russian accent)
