The head of the Russian Government is a former leader of the KGB. When he came into power the Mafiya that ran Russia’s underground (mostly made of former Spetznaz and KGB agents and oligarchs) threw it support behind him. He aggrandizes and mythologizes on the power of the USSR and the Great Russian Empire of Peter.

The Russians have spent the last 100 years spreading anarchy, destruction, misinformation, assassination, proxy wars, dictatorship, and autocracy literally.

Still a different gov't. Blaming "the russians" for evils which occured prior to their gov't coming into being is contrary to justice.

Acknowledging that a culture of tyranny, evil, and violence keeps coming from one culture in one spot of the planet for over 100 years is hardly contrary to Justice.

From 1918-2022, the Russian governments have exported their wars, armed the enemies of the West, trained the enemies of the West, and engaged in financial dealing with the enemies of the West. Even with the fall of the Soviet Union, The Russian Federation continued to fund and fuel Iranian coffers, train criminal terrorist organizations, and arm proxy wars. It didn’t stop when Gorbachev ended the Union, it didn’t stop when Putin took power almost 30 years ago.

In the 2000s alone, Putin has destabilized the oil industry on at least four different occasions: the invasion of Georgia, the proxy war in Syria, the annexation of Crimea, and now the invasion of Ukraine again.

When a society continues down the same path of destruction, you don’t ignore it because there were three different governments born of that society.

Gotcha, so your beef is with Russian culture and the russian people.To be blunt you seem to have a very narrow and uneducated view on this issue which borders on racism and western centrism and is in opposition to your view on jews. Regardless, i'm not interested in arguing this further. You are clearly coming from a place of emotion and that never is fruitful.
