In this meme, we're looking at a funny way to show a misunderstanding. Imagine a scene from a comedy show where one person, let's call them Person A, does something really bad to Person B, like tripping them over. Then, right after, Person A looks around confused and asks, "Why is everyone mad at me?" even though it's clear they caused the problem.
Now, apply this to the meme youre frothing over. Ukraine is like Person B, sitting down, and they've been hurt. Russia is like Person A, standing up, pretending to be confused and asking, "Why does everyone hate us?" After having shot person b. This joke is trying to point out that Russia seems not to realize or acknowledge the serious harm they've caused, just like Person A in our example. It's a way of highlighting that sometimes people or countries might act in harmful ways and then seem surprised when others are upset with them. The meme uses humor to talk about a serious issue, showing the contrast between the action and the confusion in a way that makes people think. Though evidently not in this case because you were so busy looking at a tree you didn't see the forest, just the one tree that was obviously growing there to be offensive to you.
I'm not unfamiliar with Russian double think. The fact remains regardless of reason, Russia is invading another country, exterminating the population then playing the victim. Facts only reside here
Perhaps the slaughter of women and children translates differently that you're liberating then Ukraine of Nazis. Russia shot first. Russia is the bad guy.
