#4429 (comment)

Some people have asked for a change to a neutral message, which seems acceptable. As the request, can be expect the dispute to end by making it clear that the campaign aims to help innocent people.

I think it will help alleviate the some dispute if accept this.

@hmmhmmhm I have read the above listed discussions and appreciate your responses in those.
However, imaging when I see a murder is happening, I would stand up and say "STOP!", rather than murmuring something like "let's work together towards a better world where people can live longer blah blah......"

And what this PR is doing, is the latter.

We already have a clear message in response to the invasion. I don't see a good reason to change it.

To expand on this a little, "humanitarian aid" already includes "supporting civilians".

Wikipedia definition of "humanitarian aid":

Humanitarian aid is material and logistic assistance to people who need help. It is usually short-term help until the long-term help by the government and other institutions replaces it. Among the people in need are the homeless, refugees, and victims of natural disasters, wars, and famines. Humanitarian relief efforts are provided for humanitarian purposes and include natural disasters and man-made disasters. The primary objective of humanitarian aid is to save lives, alleviate suffering, and maintain human dignity.

This seems more precise than "supporting civilians".

Similarly, it seems unnecessary to hide the name of the country being invaded and whose civilians are becoming refugees, if we all know which country it is. Therefore, we're happy with the existing message.
