    So, basically it’s enough to say “Fuck Russia, Fuck Russians” here and it gains you massive support.

    Seriously?

    First, how does this fuck Russia the state?

    Second, what everyday Russians have to do with it? What justifies sneaking in hate messages to a diverse ethnic group with no single ideology?

    Saying “Fuck Russians” is about the same as “Fuck Jews” because Israel has done bad things. This is not okay.

      It’s just people can’t do anything to stop Russia or at least help Ukraine. Although the latter is possible, but it’d require some effort. Writing and upvoting “fuck Russia” on social media is easy and that makes them feel better.

      Our countries welcome Ukrainian refugees.

      I am friends with Russians in my country.

      Russiana living here sneak benefits by saying they are Ukrainians.

      The majority of Russians living here voted for Putin polls have shown.

      Some Russians denounce our media and only watch Russian state TV.

      So if they can’t adapt after beeing here for decades I tend to believe that the Russian common sense differs immensly from ours. And therefore I agree with this propaganda: Fuck Russia.

      They talk about eachother on the highest level but Russian citizens - here or in Russia - do not form loud critique. If my Brother was jailed for critique I would apread the word in my circles who would spread the word… WE IN THE WEST WOULD MAKE US HEARD.

      Russians benefiting from the lower prices just agree with their government and apparently do not care about their country killing innocent people.

      So fuck Russians as well.

      • Obviously not every Russian is stupid or bad. But if they want to get out of their war, they have to speak up. This is exactly what they demand from other countries with inner conflicts.

      I think it’s pretty reasonable and okay for Palestinians to yell “Fuck Jews” IMHO

      I wouldn’t want them to go genociding back, but breaking ties in collaboration would be very fair and reasonable
