    Because you have to be so deep up your own ass to purposefully ignore information about the atrocities committed by your country, that you could probably see the light through your mouth.

    I sort kind of undertand brainwashed russians living in a russian bubble, with no access to outside information. Fine, you’re fed shit all your life, so that’s the only desert you’ve had and that’s the only desert you want/need.

    But this moron is out in the free world, and simply cannot underatand why, oh why could people be weary of russians? Truly the pinnacle of evolution.

        That’s a really interesting point. Maybe because the North Korean govt is seen as persecuting it’s citizens. Therefore it’s citizens are seen as the victims (despite some citizens being the perpetrators).

        Whereas Russian citizens are seen as the perpetrators (as invading soldiers) along with the leadership and surrounding countries are seen as the victims.

          I agree. I think this is spot on. It’s the context. If I see Russians traveling around right now, I assume they are traveling to avoid the war, but aren’t against it happening. I feel like with these videos, it’s always the Russians that are puppets to their government. Never the ones that oppose the war.

          Russians that legitimately want nothing to do with their government/ want peace are cool though.

          This video seemed like she was lacking an outside perspective. She says she’s seeking a calmer place to live, but it sounds like she doesn’t understand the context that everyone else has. Everyone is eyeing Russians right now because nobody wants a bunch of warmongers moving into their country. I’m not saying all Russians are like that, but nobody knows if a person is or not. So they’re making quick judgement

          I’m not sure how it is in Mexico/south America but I know in Canada we have a cultural melting pot, but people bring their past quarrels with them into the country. So you have a bunch of people living in Canada that will occasionally fight each other because of what Is happening in their original countries. Nobody wants to deal with that
