As the Russian government intensifies its grip on the internet, censorship circumvention tools like Tor are more critical than ever. Here's the latest on Tor censorship in Russia and how you can help by running WebTunnel bridges.
I remember at the start of the war on practically every reddit thread I looked at were full of Russian people wanting peace and cursing their government. Weird to see people dehumanizing the people who wanted nothing but peace and love.
It’s not an ethnic slur it’s who russians identify themselves with. Not sure where exactly it started, ptobably with lotr fanfic “last ringbearer” but it became pretty known phenomenon, for example in russian mmorpg alldos online “russians” are orcs. It was their own idea to call themselves orcs and be proud of it.
But I do celebrate russian death toll and fling real ethnic slurs. 😺
Nope, on top of being a part of an evil regime, a large majority of Russians are very anti-LGBT. So yea, I’m still team “Fuck those assholes” considering most of them hate my existence and want me to die. Also, let’s not ignore that if you take away Putin, the whole country still has a culture that encourages deception and backstabbing to get what you want. So yea, they get no sympathy from me. May they freeze in their shit hovels.

Yeah the whole orc thing instantly rings dehumanization bells as we know them from Netanyahu and other fascists like Hitler.
Only commenting on the orc part, but that’s what russians call themselves.
