You're the one moving the goalposts to now being about how many people in said country agree with them. Ok so just ignore the second part of my post I guess? False equivalence. How is this comparable to the egregiously racist post by Rogozin that is still on his Twitter profile? You were just desperate to find some problematic comments by European MPs to whitewash fascist russia. The difference is that that European MPs face accountability while Rogozin will face zero accountability because racism is widespread and mainstream in russia. 13 minutes ago, glitch said: Ok so just ignore the second part of my post I guess? So do you disagree with 71% of russians who says that russia is not a "European country"? And half of British adults still identify as Europeans, according to various polls. Virtually no russians identify as Europeans.

Most of its territory is not in Europe, and russians themselves do not identify as Europeans, according to various polls. They certainly don't identify as Asians or "Eurasians" either though, especially those who live in the western part of the country. Edited February 25 by dumbsparce 5
ClashAndBurn Posted February 25 Posted February 25 Looks like the average SYG-era post about Beyonce from Gui Blackout, Nicole and GreasyBruce. Anti-black racism is unfortunately a standard norm in Europe, Asia, and North America. Screaming that “Russia isn’t Europe!!!!” doesn’t change that… yes, Asian countries like Japan, China and the Koreas are highly anti-black as well. 1 1

Communion Posted February 25 Posted February 25 1 hour ago, Communion said: ?? An hour later and this post being basically ignored by the OP and the German user who said Germany didn't owe it to Namibia to recognize its genocide. Ironically not being able to just acknowledge that racism by Russians is an extension of European racism and white supremacy unintentionally segments the conversation off and forces the side discussion that some Europeans - oddly - don't view Russians as white people ("orcs!!" ) and the racist implications about such comments. This is clearly a white European man. His expression of anti-black racism clearly come from ideologies surrounding whiteness. Are some users.. genuinely trying to say the reason he's a horrid racist because... he's "Asian"? What? Clearly racism is stronger amongst further right parts of Europe than left-wing parts (hopefully) of Europe, but making the axis of bigotry that fuels anti-blackness Russian-ness and not whiteness is... very odd and would suggest the people making such comments don't actually have any issue with anti-blackness to begin with. 3 1

Pretty funny how you’re ignoring the posts calling you and OP out for not being too far off yourselves from the racism displayed by that Russian politician. Wanna respond to the fact how you think Russians aren’t “real” Europeans anyway, or wanna keep deflecting? But anyways, Like I said your post history on Arabs/Muslims speaks for itself, and it’s probably why you have to read verbatim posts stating the obvious about racism… 4

There is nothing questionable about saying that countries are located in specific continents based on geographical facts. Japan is located in Asia yet they don't currently conduct genocidal wars for the sole purpose of conquering territory and extinguishing an entire ethnic group. The fact that you consider someone saying "Russia is located in Asia" on the same level as a Russian politician saying "Black people are just like apes" Even worse, since after all your posts in this thread about the racist tweets of a Russian politician, you still have not managed to say that a politician comparing black people to apes is a bad thing, yet you are acting outraged about people pointing out that the landmass of Russia is located in the continent of Asia.

Exactly. There’s democratic Asian countries like Japan, South Korea, Mongolia, Taiwan, and there’s autocratic European states like Serbia. I don’t know what Hamas supporters and Kremlin apologists were trying to imply

Letemtalk Posted February 25 Posted February 25 Americans and Europeans are funding and supporting a genocide right now, so while Russia is pretty bad, probably not the worst. 1 2

Communion Posted February 25 Posted February 25 43 minutes ago, Dephira said: Russia is physically located in Asia you unbelievable dunce. You going "Russia is physically located in Asia so its racism can't be an extension of European white supremacy" is almost as funny as you trying to argue that British-rule Apartheid-era South Africa invading Namibia is somehow not reflective of the European forces who colonized South Africa at the time but its indigenous people (all to argue that Namibia's support for modern-day post-apartheid South Africa's condemning of Israel's genocide should be discarded and dismissed): Because it really captures the mechanism at hand here and what you're hoping to achieve. You're not interested in wherever Russia is physically located. You're literally rejecting criticisms of Russia's racism as symbolic of European white supremacy by trying to suggest Russia is not a European country and thus its racism has nothing to do with the (apparently not existing) racism of Europe. Purposeful denial of European colonization and white supremacy being the motive behind apartheid in South Africa, Namibia and more - just "African-ness". Purposeful obfuscation that Russia has territories within Asian as an extension of European imperialism and white supremacy - just "Russian-ness". Why is a German man so committed to denying the presence, realities, and mechanisms of white supremacy as an invention of Europe? 2
