But also, let’s not be pedantic. A nation can be discriminated against, any group of people can be. That’s what they meant by racism. They used it more broadly and that’s ok, I’m sure even you understood what they meant. What term would you use to be more precise?
When the government of a nation pushes people out of windows because they disagree with their government- jokes will be made.
That is human nature.
People bag on America all the time. Do you rush to the aid of those disparaged by jokes about fat, bacon-eating school shooters? Or are you selective about who you chose to defend?
You need to update your vocabulary comrade. There may be new definitions of the word racism. Remember literally no longer only literally means literally. What a time we live in.
This isn’t funny.
You’re just blessed enough not to recognize gallows humor. We’re actually jealous of you.
make sure you check your railings in America before January.
Everyone else is stocking up on food and drugs.
I’m stocking up on steel railings and evacuation air pads.
Unfortunately anti-russian racism is acceptable here. When you see a headline like this, just be ready for the comments.
It’s not racism to point out that a surprising number of Putin critics have died from falling from tall buildings.

Gallows humor about the suspicious deaths of people critical of an oligarchy is not racism.
Unless you are a wilfully credulous root vegetable of a person.
Do you seriously think Russian is a race?
I agree this isn’t racism against Russians.

Russia isn’t a race.
It’s a failed state, ruled by a corrupt dictator.
Just like America in a couple months.
What exactly was racist?
And who said it’s funny. I’m confused

Pro-Russian comment meant to wield the left’s propensity to over-diagnose racism to redirect and distract.
I’d more call it politicism, as it’s more criticizing the political state and not someones origin/heritage.
