i’ve personally noticed that ppl on reddit have become a lot more racist overall in the past few months, esp visible bc i have a flair indicating that i’m from russia lol, idk if that’s directly related or not, just something i have observed
most toxic thread i’ve probably ever encountered was that was where the foreign policy chief said “europe is a garden, the rest of the world is a jungle, jungle can attack the garden”, like holy shit, i browse 4chan from time to time and it now seems like a less racist place 😬
edit Ok, that was obviously sarcasm, but I’m sure a lot of distrust towards your people right now is due to what your government has done instead of what you are.

I noticed that too. They quarantined /r/russia, changed the moderators of /r/moscow and did nothing about posts calling to kill Russians.
moderators of /r/moscow got it back iirc btw
Are they being racist in the same way that people in Allied countries were racist against germans during 1939-1945?
no, i’d say these two are different
one is hatred based on largely superficial traits that one can’t control, the other is hatred based on very deliberate actions
Sorry, I’m not following. Which one is which?
