    I agree this isn’t racism against Russians.

    But also, let’s not be pedantic. A nation can be discriminated against, any group of people can be. That’s what they meant by racism. They used it more broadly and that’s ok, I’m sure even you understood what they meant. What term would you use to be more precise?

      When the government of a nation becomes notorious for pushing people out of windows because they disagree with the way they run their government- jokes will be made.

      That is human nature.

      People bag on America all the time. Do you rush to the aid of those disparaged by jokes about fat, bacon-eating school shooters? Or are you selective about who you chose to defend?

        You’re trying to convince the person who agreed in the first place, this isn’t discriminatory.

          I’m not trying to convince anyone of anything. The only term that would be more precise is the one I used already:

          Human nature.
