Here’s the original article if you’re interested in reading it.
Here are some comments on Twitter about this situation:
This rhetoric seems very familiar and other folks in the replies are pointing out how these people would’ve supported the Japanese internment camps.
This is explicit discrimination and xenophobia, literally mimicking what Trump spouted about Mexican immigrants/refugees.
How are people just okay with this shit? How is it at this point people have still not realized that history is repeating itself? Does this not ring any bells?
I’ve come to the conclusion that some people are just lost causes and it’s going to take something incredibly drastic happening to wake them up. Even then, would that be enough?
I know that the comments directed against Russians were worse, but I still feel like somebody needs to point out how infuriating it is when Ukrainian anticommunists do the exact same shit that gusanos do: speaking on behalf of their entire nationality, oversimplifying reality to a mindnumbingly fuckheaded extent.
It’s a tactic that they pull to preemptively kill any nuanced analysis of the situation and manipulate people into adopting their black‐and‐white view of the world.
