It has been more than two weeks since Russia aggressively invaded Ukraine on February 24, and many people continue to show solidarity with Ukraine. Russian-born, 28-year-old ether founder Vitalik Buterin is the world’s youngest cryptocurrency billionaire. Recently, Buterin publicly supported Ukraine on Twitter, but Chinese netizens went out and scolded him. It’s a “traitor”. To this, Buterin personally responded in Chinese, “To say that people in a country must support their own country’s government is not patriotism, but a form of slavery.”
Buterin founded Ethereum when he was 20 years old and currently has more than $1.1 billion in assets. A few days ago, Buterin expressed his solidarity with Ukraine through Twitter. He said that the most important thing now is to support the Ukrainians, and then to support the people who oppose the Russian government. However, this move has attracted many Chinese netizens to choke. One of them, a suspected Chinese Internet Army account, dogecoin faith, said in unreasonable grammar, “Aren’t you Russian? You traitor, did Putin have a bad experience with you? “
The origin of the suspected Chinese Internet Army account dogecoin faith is questionable, but he often posts hate speeches on Twitter, such as his tweet on March 8, saying, “All students in Shenzhen can only take online classes, which is a problem for families with dual workers. A heavy blow, lock up Hong Kong and don’t let them come and harm Shenzhen people!!”
Unexpectedly, this attracted the deity’s reply in Chinese. Buterin responded, “It is not patriotism to say that people in a country must support the government of their own country, but a form of slavery. True patriotism sometimes requires confronting the evil emanating from one’s own country. Because in this way, we can help our country become more beautiful.” The move was liked by more than 20,000 people and retweeted by more than 5,000 people.
