Regarding Russia and Kraut

In my previous post that was taken down for racism, I expressed the need for Europe to distance itself from Russia and russians if it ever wants to uphold its ideals and live in peace. In this post I will express a point of view that may not be acceptable to all, but I don't care at this point.

Honestly, the naivety of a lot of you and even Kraut when it comes to russians is not surprising given most of you come from western, southern or northen European countries. Most of you believe that russians can change or can be changed, though, I believe thats far from the truth. I would equate the relationship between Russia and eastern Europe to that of a rapist and victim. In such an instance a lot of you would tell the victim that the rapist is not all bad and that eastern Europe is being unjustly negative towards Russia. But the truth is, in real life very rarely does the rapist ever change, the same could be said about Russia and russians. Just as Kraut mentioned in his previous videos, the issue here is not grounded in race, but rather in years of development and I agree.

Although I do believe that every nation on every continent has great potential and there is a possibility that every state led by brutal dictatorships and its people can change (f.e. Iran or China), but I wouldnt say the same about Russia. The russians have been permanently damaged by Russian authoritarianism and while, of course, I don't want to generalize, but its hard not to view the russians as monsters, when only 1% of them are not. Why do I believe that the russians are irredeamable monsters? Tell me a nation in this world, whose people in this day and age would happily go to war and not protest at all? Tell me a nation whose people would be happy about losing their loved one in a war, because they could get a free car or free clothes? Explain to me why, when russians immigrate to western countries, do they not protest against the actions of their home state? If Iranians can do it, why cant russians? This is one of the reasons why I have enourmous respect for Iranians and their struggle against the brutal regime at home, and I can't stop but look at russians as deranged maniacs, who want nothing but to destroy everything they see, so in my eyes, there is no way Europe can have a peaceful night, as long as Russia exists and its people are allowed to freely roam the European countries.
