are you russophobic?

it seems like russia is often painted as the ‘evil’ nation, especially in the context of recent conflicts, but when looking at the broader picture of recent years, hasn’t the u.s. caused more harm to innocent civilians (e.g., in the middle east, drone strikes, etc.)? why does russia seem to be more villainized in comparison, even if their actions aren’t necessarily more damaging in recent history?

No. Neither is the mainstream USA or Europe - that's pure HATRED of Russia, no fear!
You gotta hate the fact that Russians confronted capitalism first!

@Roundandroundwego how many russians do you know? what did they do to you?
@thrash what's your problem? Why get personal?

@Roundandroundwego hate isn't personal for you?
@thrash in the case of the West hating Russia it's actually not personal. Did you think it was? I'm sure people know about Napoleon invading Russia, the Russian revolution - grudges going back that aren't personal.

@Roundandroundwego gpt says russia is no longer a communist state?
@thrash no kidding. But they're making Europe hate them anyway. And I think that knowing stuff changes nothing in the West. Yup. Hate Russia and hate Russia or hate Russia! You have those choices. You sound impervious to historical facts. Hate Russia - you don't need reasons? You can not have reason.

@Roundandroundwego there's history and then there's recent history

you seem impervious to recent history—america been killing so much more civilians. but it's ok because they're mostly middle-eastern ppl, right...
