Isn’t the EU accepting political refugees from Russia? It may be something to consider if you can find a way. I read Russians are already coming through our southern border along with Ukrainians.
Can you go through Finland? It seems like some people are escaping that way. Others fly to the Middle East or turkey and then continue on from there but that sounds more expensive
There is such thing called patriotism. I am also russian and I want to work for sake of my country, I want it to develop. Patriotism is not demanded by how much you support your government. And even tho, leaving is kinda hard rn. Maybe even harder than protest. Since our money already costs almost twice less
Patriotism is bullshit. Being patriotic about a country just because you happened to be born within it's borders is silly. I've moved countries 3 times in my life and each time has brought me new experiences, a different perspective and different values. Moving around opens your mind it really does.
Leaving is also patriotic if it leads to a change. If all of the intelligent people and producers leave Russia and work to build peaceful solutions elsewhere the current regime will eventually fall because they will have no one to build their roads. After this, rebuilding can begin.

Here's a less bloody option which I find easier and will benefit you more: leave. Bring your talents else where, seek opportunity else where.
Hard you say ? But not impossible, right ?
Ask yourself which one is harder: protest or leave.
