No I don't agree with annexation. I also don't care that it used to belong to Ukraine, the people there were tired of Ukraine's bullshit so it doesn't belong to them anymore. More people should stand up to their useless governments.

Yes, they should, but the people of Donbas are Ukrainian, and the majority are certainly not separatists. Russia's continued attempts to influence the region still add up to very little in terms of support by most residents, and you can find surveys like this: https://theconversation.com/most-people-in-separatist-held-areas-of-donbas-prefer-reintegration-with-ukraine-new-survey-124849
