There’s a difference between hating Russians and hating Russia. Please don’t hate me. I’m just a guy, like you.

There’s a big difference between hating what Russia, and by the extension, the Russian people, are doing, and hating every single Russian individually. It’s like hating the patriarchy, but not hating every single individual man.

Yes, collectively it’s their fault, but you can’t hold Yevgeni the farmer from Sertov, whose son got drafted against his will, personally responsible for Russian genocide in Ukraine.

You can definitely blame Baris from Moscow, who drives around with a “3 weeks to Berlin” bumper sticker and who has a bronze bust of Putin in his bedroom.

Did you just call me “one of the good ones”?

Get a grip, man. Stop turning an entire nationality into a monolith.

Funny how pretty much no place is ever the one for PoLiTiCs.

Don’t worry, being exposed to some eeeevil nasty politics won’t kill you.

nah i think it’s just that this content fits better in ncd or something, if you don’t care about sorting then why do communities exist on this platform?

Right, because I’m OK with PoLiTiCaL content on 196 means I don’t “care about sorting.” Holy shit are some people fragile – do you see a rule here saying “no politics”? Does the sidebar read “Rule: You must post NON-POLITICAL CONTENT before you leave”? Or is this maybe just you being whiny?
