On Reddit, there are two ways to see Russian people: Brainwashed toddlers who have no idea what’s going on in Ukraine or hordes of viscous, evil orcs (the amount of Tolkien lingo I’ve seen to describe this conflict is disturbing. I don’t think he’d want anything to do with it.) that should be destroyed. On Twitter, it’s common to see Ukranian journalists, probably Nazi simps themselves, call for the average Russian civillian to be punished and equate their culture to some warlike barbarian tribe. And on Facebook, you can just say “Kill all Russians” and get away with it.
Like I always knew that the West was slowly sliding into fascism, but I did expect it to happen this quickly.
Reddit users are disproportionately American right wing extremists and fake Marxists so I can believe your claim. However, that will contradicts American fake news that collectively repeat every lies from American imperialists and say that Russians are opposing Putin although they will not explain why NATO will sanction all Russian citizens in retaliation against Putin’s humanitarian intervention against Ukraine Fascists.
