It’s not about traveling, and not about Russians at all. I just gave an example. Look,

Ursula von der Leyen was against Russians destroying the energy infrastructure of Ukraine.

The same Ursula supports energy blockade of Gaza by Israel.

It’s just pure hypocracy.

In both cases the civilian population suffers the most. In both cases it’s a war crime and should be condemned.

If you don’t see a hypocrisy from our leaders of the west, you brainwashed.

You missed the point :

Russia invades and terrorises the Ukrainian civilians. We punish Russian civilians aka collective punishment.

Hamas invades Israel and terrorises Israeli civilians. Israel punishes Gaza civilians aka collective punishment.

In the first case we are OK. In the second case we scream at Israel (the OP post) “Collective punishment is war crime!!”

We. Are. Hypocrites.

“Collective punishment is a war crime”. Except for Palestinians and Russians, of course. And anybody we disagree with. Fuck those civilians.

We are hypocrites. We have double standards.

I am just pointing it out.

As is punishing all Russian passport holders for the action of the government. So it’s either both EU and Israel are monsters or neither is.

Guaranteeing that every individual has the same rights independently of their sex, sexual orientation, race, skin color and so on… Shouldn’t be neither left nor right. It just should be. It’s just common sense.

There are plenty of another topic for the left vs right to debate. Leave identity politics out of it and just let people live like they want.

• EU based.
• Neutral stance on political alignment.
• The “no bigotry” rule, that applies to everyone, not selectively.

Hey look, a fascist word! Actually that’s quite offensive to hear, for an European, who’s family suffered from literal fascism. And the Americans now just throwing the word left and right and label people they disagree with. Sad.

Also I view both US Democrats and US Republicans as right wingers.

To give you more context: I support individual liberty, equal rights, welfare state in form of social healthcare and education; I oppose authoritarian ideologies; I believe in free market with some regulation to prevent exploiting and guarantee positive liberties, such as health; I support direct democracy, decentralization and non-interventionist policy.

I would characterize my political alignment as in between social democrat and social libertarian.

Oh look, a person that cannot distinguish center from right. I wonder how you drive if you can’t into directions.

The probability of encountering a “non-extremist” right-winger is exactly the same as of encountering a “non-extremist” left-winger and is quite small. The vast majority of people are moderates, either left or right leaning.

Also, from the European perspective, the American left aka Democrats are quite right leaning :)
