I saw on reddit, a post about how Russia was evil because it was targeting Europeans and Australians with the shooting down of Malaysia flight 17 that happened years ago.
And in the comments people were like “100 dutch people died we will never forgive russia”
“20 australians died we hate Russia!”
and its like, at the same time in 2011, the US and NATO and their allies were killing thousands in the middle east every month
They were just brown people. They only view white people as human.
Like I knew that before, but in that moment I was just so digusted. If russia just killed 1,000 muslims nobody would have cared.
I just sat there filled with dread for like 10 minutes
I should not have clicked. These people are so disgustingly racist.
I pretty much never switch on /all unless I’m prepared for psychic damage
I’ve just blocked all the problem users and comms. Been great for me as I can still discover new communities without witnessing too much bigotry and political incompetence
I tried that, even in a more okay community the liberal mindset is always there.
