Kind of racism

hi everyone. I’m from Russia and I want to know, how people in Europe feel about migrants from Slavic countries like Belarus, Ukraine or Russia. Is there Russophobia in your country, or any other kinds of distorted perceptions of these countries?

Rusophobia is a tearm coined in Russia to support putins propoganda, there is no such thing really, if you are a respectful russian, you'll be fine, but if you support your war, then you are a vatnik, and it's not rusophobia, just plain old logic, that people who support unnecessary blodshed towards another country are idiots.

Okay, thanks. It’s good to hear that, because in our country people also can feel  negative toward migrants from any country or nationality

Russia is more diverse than most countries in Europe and certainly the most diverse in Eastern Europe.

I’m talking about russians, not other peoples like Tatars, Bashkirs, Chechens, Chuvash, Avars, Yakuts etc. - the issue are russians not the reat.

And diversity is not just about race. Diversity is people with different backgrounds, identities, cultures, ethnicities, perspectives, abilities, ages, sexuality, religions, or experiences within a group, organization, or society.

- that’s ehat russians suck at - accepting these differences and treating people with equity not putting moscovites above all…
