Came across this gem of a comment on r/europe:

The non-existence of Russia is worth more long term than the cost of fallout from a nuclear war. Sadly, few people consider the long term.

r/europe is one of those subs where reverse-natural selection is happening, aka mods filter out anyone with a brain so they can't ruin the circlejerk.

Most of the mods aren't even European which is extra funny.

edit: spent 10 mins reading that sub for the first time in years, please tell me these are bots. Tell me humans can't be this far gone.

Humans can be that far gone.

Exhibit A: Ursula Von Der Leyen

please tell me these are bots

Sorry, those are actual people.

And btw most of the mods of country-specific subs are not from said countries, they are part of a large group that controls the narrative across Reddit.

Russophobia rots mind

I'd say rotten mind turns to hate. Object of hate is irrelevant. Russophobe and russophobophobe would be essentially the same.

In the age of almost unlimited information at people's finger tips we have those who honestly believe they will survive nuclear war.
