I am observing a very similar sentiment to Sinophobia, now regarding Russia. Reddit’s audience is primarily 80% USA + West EU, and the rest 20% also includes a lot of East Europe and other countries, leaving for 5-10% anti-hatred people. On the other hand, Western world makes up for a mere 12% of the world’s population.

This speaks volumes about how majoritarianism is flipped on the internet by Western world to suit their narratives and loudmouth whatever they want dominating in virtual space. And since moderators are also from said Western countries, the biases are completely intentional and systematic.

For all the “human rights” and “no censorship” nonsense these Western countries spout with the assumption of having high horse on moral grounds, they lie a lot systematically.

Just an observation.

    leaving for 5-10% anti-hatred people

    Does someone being from the USA or Europe automatically make them anti-Russia? Does someone not being from USA or Europe automatically make them pro-Russia?

    Isn’t assuming either of these things prejudiced (and dare I say perhaps even racist) against both Americans and Europeans?

      It’s not 100%, but yes, the countries that colonized the entire world and created the idea of race to begin with are very much the racist ones. How is that surprising?

      English Fascism has been here for a while now. The other thread was quite revealing on c/memes.
