It's not an ethnic slur it's who russians identify themselves with. Not sure where exactly it started, ptobably with lotr fanfic "last ringbearer" but it became pretty known phenomenon, for example in russian mmorpg alldos online "russians" are orcs. It was their own idea to call themselves orcs and be proud of it.

But I do celebrate russian death toll and fling real ethnic slurs. 😺
