When the inevitable collapse happens in the west and all these scumbags get to live to what Russians suffered back in the 90s, I’m going to feel no remorse for these people.
The Russian workers didn’t even choose to go to war with Ukraine yet they still get trashed for something they had no choice in, even when they’re doing something that has nothing to do with the war.
One thing the war made very clear is that many people in the west just hate Russians, and now they can finally openly say what they were thinking all along.
Not even capitalism could save Russia from being hated by the West.
That’s how we definitively know it’s just racism.
More than that, Russia became a western lapdog in 90s, it still didn’t appeased West.
these are the kind of people complaining about lemmygrad and the devs of lemmy btw. Go use kbin you fucking losers
And Reddit doesn’t consider it hate speech because it’s aimed at Russians
Slava Ukraini = common Ukrainian phrase meaning “I am an idiot”
Reddit will ignore stuff like this and then ban GenZedong.
What is worse is how they don’t understand their behavior justifies the invasion. Either Russia puts order in their borders by any means necessary, or the west will literally murder every single Russian and feel morally superior while doing so.
This behavior isn’t even restricted to online people, the amount of genocidal bloodthirst coming from average Europeans is appalling. It truly is grotesque that these people can only deal with others by murder and genocide, and still consider themselves to be a garden of democracy in a jungle of barbarity.
That’s the really fascinating part of all this. Their desire to see dead Russians is exactly why Russia will continue to take measures to ensure it’s survival. Someone could drop a bomb on Moscow tomorrow and you’d still have commenters saying that any outrage would be an overreaction by “occupiers” instead of a rational response.
drop a bomb on Moscow
There’s already been drone bombings in Moscow
And Westerners love it. Again, completely oblivious to their hypocrisy. Imagine if Iraq and Afghanistan decided to do terror bombings in American cities. Or if Libya and Syria decided to commit bombing campaigns against NATO European countries.
When some terrorists with a lot of sus connections to the western intelligence agencies bombed New York, USA destroyed 2 unrelated countries, so we more or less do know.
*world of barabarity
definitely not hate speech, no sirree
Note the article title too. The russian man isn’t a tourist like the rest of them: he’s a Russian
Exactly
I had a feeling that’s what those comments would be. The fact that the article called out he was a Russian citizen was a dog whistle that you should laugh at his misfortune.
This is so horrifying. Was Reddit always this hostile to Russians or did it shift because of the war?
A little, wasn’t nearly this bad, but yes they’ve gone full skull measurer because of the war
It was, but it was usually hidden under a veneer of civility. As in, users were gloating about dead Russians at least as far back as 2016 (witnessed it myself), but calling us “orcs” or “subhumans” usually resulted in mods deleting comments. Although I’ve never heard of anyone getting banned over it, mind you.
I want to say yes. There was a long time where they were blaming Russian hackers and propagandists for every percieved slight against them.
Imagine comments like this every time some Floridians or Aussies get chomped by sharks and alligators
A big indicator that the ‘Ukrainian’ supporter is actually a Fascist who support the ethnic genocide by the current puppet Kyiv government is that they antagonize all Ukrainians who are ethnically and linguistically Russians even when they claimed to sympathize with the Russian Ukrainians who were murdered from the false flag terrorism by Azov thugs.
I just can’t wait for the day we stop supporting Ukraine so we can magically see all this Ukraine support either disappear entirely or turn against America. I wonder if they’ll still be protected by Big Tech in that case.
And these are the compassionate liberals who supposedly have minority’s interests at heart.
Give them the license to hate and they start breaking out the rulers to measure everyone’s skulls and advocating for ethnic cleansing.
This legit feels like that Monkey Hate thing but applied to human beings, Jesus…
What’s monkey hate?
hope the shithole cease to exist
