Are racism and hate speech permitted on Similar Worlds?

A post was recently made referring to Russians as "barbarians," adding that Russian tennis players who are playing at Wimbledon are "contaminating" it. These players are all neutral, and most of them live outside of Russia. Some of them have dual citizenships and live in Kazakhstan, Spain, Italy, USA and other countries, but the user responsible for this hatred and racism still objects to them playing at Wimbledon.

This has led me to question whether racism and hate speech are permitted on this website? Is it acceptable or encouraged to say vile things about a nationality or ethnic group? Or is it only acceptable or encouraged when the nationality or ethnic group is Russian?

Yeah. It is unfortunate but in the West people have been trained from toddlers to hate Russians since 1917.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow And yet, the Russians were allies to the British and Americans up until 1945.

@Sidewinder Only because they were happy to let Russians die for European empires. You don't have to like a nation to offer them up as cannon fodder. In fact it is better if you don't.

Now it is Ukraine's turn to die for western empires.
