I’m reminded of what Japanese soldiers were told about Americans. From what I recall, they, too, would commit suicide rather than be captured, fearing torture. Awful.

Nah, just chemically toxic.
You really should clarify whether you mean the state or the people.
States don’t have rights (they exist at the pleasure of their citizens), but people do.
It’s tribalism. “If it looks like a person, but it behaves differently from me, then it’s an outsider or a defect. Either way, it’s bad for the tribe, so get rid of it.” Definitely one of humanity’s darkest traits.
And one hell of a lot of work, too! Reimplementing the Windows APIs that Wine didn’t already have, and then optimizing those implementations enough to be not only sufficient for some of the most performance-sensitive software under the sun but *faster than actual Windows*, is no small feat.

Most social media is blocked in Russia, if I’m not mistaken, so yeah, probably.
Which is sad. Nothing good ever comes of leaders stopping their people from speaking freely with foreigners.
That, by the way, is why Chat Control, KOSA, and similar legislation must be stopped. It’s the same damn thing as Russian and Chinese censorship, with the same foul purpose.
