    It would be easier for me to avoid dehumanising the Russian if they weren’t the first one to dehumanise Ukrainians in their rhetoric. Do onto others as you would have them do onto you, if they feel bad for being compared to non-human concepts they might want to rethink their entire way of behaviour

        As should the russians. Why should I be the first to correct my way when I haven’t even invaded my neighbour through a war which has killed tens of thousands of innocent people?

            I’m not defending my own racism, I’m attacking the russian one. Hard to understand for you, I get it, but don’t make a fool of yourself anymore please

              You used racist terms like calling Russians “hordes, bacteria, and viruses.” You aren’t attacking shit, you’re revealing that you’re a Euronationalist.

                And the russians used much worse slurs to talk about the Ukrainians. Did you get butthurt against their racism as well or do you suffer from “partial loathing syndrome” as all tankies do?

                  I’m talking about your very specific racism right now. Russians as a people are not racist, some are for sure but certainly not all. You in particular are racist, and defending your right to be.

                    If russians were not racists we wouldn’t see blatant racism on state television and on state newspaper, as we don’t see it on mainstream media in Europe. Yet those media are encouraged and supported by both their institutions and the populace as well. As long as this continue I’ll be as racist as they are towards Ukrainians, not for being racist by itself but to treat this people the same way it treat others
