    Yea, that’s unfortunate, I believe both Ukraine, Afghanistan and Iraq are some war ravaged countries whose people need help regardless of their organ’s color (skin, hair, eye, you name it). I was in for supporting Syrian refugees back then, the same way I am in for supporting the Ukrainian ones now, and it sucks seeing people making comparisons like these. However, I cannot see how this makes Bellingcat, and even Vice, that is one of the most progressive leaning news outlets out there, unreliable, especially due to racism problems.

    used to think Europe might have some hope of being better than genocidal USA

    Just go to Russia, mate, in Russia there is no racism, everyone is allowed to protest, you’ve got free elections that ensure rotating power over the course of the years, there’s no homophobia unlike in the West, they are the most progressive nation on Earth. Just go there and let us be genocidal with ourselves if that’s your thing.

      Oh yes casual blanket discrimination of EVERYONE that is not a blue eyes blonde hair should be handwaved, because it must be an anomaly to treat rest of the world as subhumans by you and your Anglosphere.

      Your little rant about Russia is very funny, because it is exactly what happens in USA, Canada and European countries. However, Russia does not engage in institutionalised discrimination the way Anglosphere imperialism does, or support for or commit genocides and foreign interventions to install their own puppets, or use their media to manipulate global discourse by carefully crafted everyday life propaganda aimed at the proletariat to suck them dry of their capital and revolutionary ability.

      Anglosphere should probably just go commit genocide on each other if all they can do is commit genocide, because they clearly cannot think of anything along the lines of communism. All you folks can do is tax fund your genocidal overlords, and eat pizzas/burgers/baguettes on the couch and watch Netflix/HBO and cry bullshit on Twitter and parrot whatever NATO media tells you to. I almost forgot to say this, that media parroting includes (not even neo fascist or neo Nazi) straight up Nazi slogans and Nazi symbols and signs.

      Go commit some revolution and overthrow your governments if you believe one shred in your human rights gibberish. Maybe it can atone for the sin of parroting the dehumanising narrative on Russia.
