In the expulsion of russian maintainers thread there are multiple people who are insulting russians as a whole. Isn't insulting people for their nationality against lemmy.world CoC? Is it allowed to insult egyptians or vietnamese people in a similar way?

Americans and many Europeans have a terrible track record of discrimination in wartime

Opposed to war criming, torturing, raping Russian troops? Aww shit. Those poor dudes, I didn't mean to be rude to them.

There are many "rude" armies in the world. Is it ok to insult all people from india because member of the indian army raped someone?

Hey, I'm from Germany. You tell me.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

You tell me.

If it's ok for russians then it's ok for germans, indians, ukrainians and every other nation. If not, it's not ok for everyone including russians.

It's not ok for anyone and when I still to this day pay for things my grandparents didn't even participate in, the whole of Russia is responsible for the atrocities their country is committing. Rise up, get rid of your dictator and all his cronies, give back the land your stole, pay reparations and we're talking about forgiveness.

Yes, I feel responsible to make sure nothing like the rise of Hitler ever happens again here. Russians should feel the same responsibility.

Same goes for pretty much every country. You should rise up and fight your government who is beating and arresting climate activists.

Yes, that's the spirit. And the first governments that should be punched are the war waging ones. I'm glad we both agree that Russia indeed bad, at least currently. Have a good day.
