Letting that empathy lead you into violating international sanctions to funnel money to a sanctioned country is decidedly not a good idea.
Requesting that other people sign up for Stripe accounts and send you the money in violation of sanctions is bad. The other person risks extreme legal consequences including prison sentences for deliberately and openly violating sanctions.
The comments are a warning to anyone who might feel compelled to do what is being asked, without realizing the specific request is a serious legal matter that can come with prison terms measured in decades.

The OP wasn't asking for help leaving their country. They were making a specific ask to violate sanctions.
