minus-squaredaniskarma@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 years agoIs ok to be xenophobe against Russians now? There are plenty of Russians who are wonderful persons. It’s like judging all Americans for what Trump is doing.
minus-squareXhead@lemmings.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 years agoThere are also plenty of Russians invading their neighbour, slaughtering thousands of innocent people. Just like the complacent Americans sitting by watching their “leader” destroy the civility of the free world. The Russians are no better.

minus-squaredaniskarma@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 years agoBeing a bad or good person is not tied to nationality.
minus-squareXhead@lemmings.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 years agoNo it’s tied to your actions and principles.
minus-squaredaniskarma@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 years agoExactly. Being Russian is not an action, nor a principle. It just states the fact that you, as a person, has been born in a place called Russia.

The Germans civilians that lived outside the concentration camps were as guilty as the guards themselves. Obviously I don’t believe the levels of guilt aren’t the same as say Hitler himself but they were guilty nonetheless.
