MODERATORS
Try not to conflate bad decisions within a government to an entire nation full of people. Or, you know, be a xenophobic asshole.
America is not the working class or marginalized/colonized peoples in America. the peoples in America are held hostage by America. America bad! Why? Because it's a settler colonial genocidal reactionary bourgeois imperialist project that's been at war for 95+% of its 250 year history. It would be best for the people here if it were reconstituted through proletarian revolution, at the bare minimum. You're just doing the nationalist chauvinist equivalent of arguing that ACAB isn't true because some cops pet their cat and watch ASMR and drink tea when they come home from a long day of protecting bourgeois wealth from the proletarian rabble.
Very good point. Russophobia is utterly xenophobic and moronic.
You can be against that state and its ideological adherents. You can also support it's disempowerlment, dissolution, and reconstitution under a different government, institutions, constitutions, and class rule.
"Not all americans!"
Nationalist bullshit.
If America is a democracy, aren't its people responsible for all of its crimes?
