    And you feel good inheriting that hatred? There’s a big difference between the general Russian population (those who will be affected by this ban) and Kremlin.

    Let’s be better than our ancestors.

      Do you know the kind of generational trauma caused by rape, torture, dispossession and murder? Because that’s what I’ve inherited, and yes, as a result I don’t want anything to do with any russians.

      Was it the kremlin who raped, tortured and murdered in Bucha, Irpin, Mariupol and other places in their current war? Or was it “normal” russians?

        And where does this cycle of hatred end? Do you think the “normal” Russians (soldiers, prisoners, mercenaries) would do these things, like rape, if they didn’t believe either that you deserved it, or that you are not worthy of compassion? Where does this come from, you think?

        And how does this translate to tourists? Do they share this perspective? Why do they travel to countries which they know support “the enemy”?

          It ends when they fuck off out of the country they invaded. Until then it’s open season.

        Seconded! Whole family for generations suffered under the fucking Russians. And here they come again, like the fucking mongol horde without the charm.

        TIL Lemmy doesn’t actually mind xenophobia as long as it’s against Russians.
