It is literally a pro Russian action, to be against sanctioning Russia for their war against Ukraine.

Tell me how it’s not advantageous for Russia to enable trade with them.

it may be advantageous for Russia. thats true.

but it still doesnt imply that slovakia is therefore politically pro-russian.

they might care about pro-slovak advantages it brings. or they might think that sanction dont work as intendet. or they might think that sanction paradoxically cause too many problems in EU. or that it is not the right approach to resolve the conflict.

Or not be as willing (as the British state is for example) to sacrifice the entire male population of Ukraine to fight a war for them.

That makes you "pro Russian" apparently

When populations resist wars of conquest from imperial powers, and request aid, it's not "sacrificing" them to send them aid as they requested. That is a pro Russian narrative you have just deployed though.

lets say you have a digital privacy activist, and someone says their actions are literally "pro CP".

well technically, existence of some private messaging network can help predators. i dont know if there is a way around that.

but saying that the actions of the activist are "pro CP" is not fair IMO. its often a manipulative labeling. it might be what it motivates the activist or it might not be. they might have completely different reasons to advocate for digital privacy.
