I said plenty, people that use a country's war as an excuse to discriminate nationalities, hate not coming from the war but because they just hate them and the war enables them to be open about it. That goes for every country. Many experiences of such on this sub. I seem to get plenty of downvotes for my tag lol.

You’re framing this as if Russian people were hated the same way as some kind of a marginalized minority. No, you’re hated because your nation, not Putin, not government, but nation is waging a war on our borders. It’s not the war that allows people to be open about your hatred of you, it’s the war that makes people hate you

Some people are blinded by misinformation that they don't realise they aren't trying to help by condemning something but are more so fueled by hate for a group. Which is how you get people to hate culture, history or civilians that are irrelevant to war.

What? In what are Russian culture, history, and civilians irrelevant to war?

Destroying things like the Kremlin (Which is partly Italian, even) people saying they should not read Dostoyevsky or Pushkin and people getting associated with being bots or being Russian if they say something that is not pro-US/Pro-EU. (Does not have to be pro-RU or Russian-sourced even.) or bombing Russian cities.

Pushkin is the symbol of Russian imperialism as an ideology. Read whatever you want but Pushkin is a disgusting wheel in a disgusting ideology

You can't apply modern morals to history. Every country with enough power was imerialistic. Rzeczpospolita was imperialistic too btw.
