Unless you're from a country that's suffered a Russian occupation during one of the wars, you don't get to claim knowledge on the subject. And if you had been, you'd know what you wrote is literally true, no shadow of sarcasm about it.
My grandfather was in a soviet prison camp. Fuck you and your racist revisionism.
Man, you've been baiting this entire thread to drop that line. Get over yourself.
Now I'm not allowed to correct some bullshit someracist claims about me?
In case you forgot: I'm arguing against demonizing the people of Russia.
So, I'm a bit mad at the people in Russia who support Russia's WAR in Ukraine. I don't hate them. Many of them are uninformed. You are attributing racism to the anger most of the world feels toward that joke of a country.
I'm simply afraid that the condemnation of the war in Ukraine leads to people submitting to some racist narrative, without even realizing it. I've seen it happen in German discourse. It also happened during the "war on terror".
