“We just hate the government, not its people; we won’t let you look at the stats for this year’s assaults and violent crimes til next year so you can’t cross-check us anyway”

Ah yes. Brits. Famous for not being virulently racist.

insert Lenin quote

Mf that rag is one of the key sources of the Russophobia!

Russians appear to get along just fine

Which ones and with whom? Half of them have had to keep a low profile since the invasion because reactionary warmongers went for the jugular of everything Russian. These people who don’t need much of an excuse to ramp up the hate crimes and xenophobia; the press gave them what they needed.

And what about Ukrainians? The ones repeatedly condemned to fight a war for those for whom the Economist speaks.

Economist articles are written by nameless authors so they can swing wildly to stir up as much shit as possible and there’s nobody to hold to account.

(Also, one way of reading this headline is that Britons oppose the war but Russians overwhelmingly don’t oppose it. Doubt very much that’s the message the authors were trying to convey.)

Kremlin is very wrong, of course. I remember hearing shit like bars openly banning Russians from Russians living all over Europe, not just the UK, for the last year and a half.

England deserves to be bombed

The poor little orcs have no say over their government, unlike the great cracker nations where we proudly support our genocidal wars of aggression based on lies. No racism here, we voted for a black man one time.

The only prime minister of colour we’ve had in the uk happened to be a neoliberal billionaire removed who lost the election between the members of his own party, with the rest of the country not even getting a chance to vote.

Democracy my arse.
