the racism in russia

Wasn't it "the West" who came up with the idea of "Asiatic hordes" (which is repurposed Nazi propaganda btw), "orcs" and "untermenschen"? Wasn't it "the West" who spread the narrative of "relatively European, relatively civilized", temporary "white" Ukrainians when it was convenient for them? I don't think you understand what racism is and where it came from.

Historically, racism and "races" were Western European inventions that served the purpose of justifying hereditary slavery and colonialism. Here's an interesting thing - it never went away. One look at Gaza, Palestine or the Arab world in general should tell you as much.

Racism is also believing western "sources" are inherently, magically more trustworthy than any Russian outlets without doing any outside material analysis of the actual details of history. We do not trust either side, we don't have to - we analyze the information through a materialist ideological lens.
