You say communism, but what about Cuba and China?

You say former dictatorship, but what about Germany, Italy, Japan, most of Africa, and China?

You say threat to foreign policy, but what about Saudi Arabia, Iran, and China?

You say nuclear threat, but what about UK, France, India, Israel, soon Iran, and China?

You say their anti-gay stance, but what about Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, heck pretty much the entire Middle East and most of Africa, India, and China?

You say that Putin silences his opposition, but what about American Democrats, Venezuela, most countries in the Middle East and Africa, many in SEA, and of course, China?

You say cyber warfare, but what about Germany, Italy, India, Iran, Brazil, Turkey, and China?

It seems that China is guilty of everything that Americans hate Russia for but you don't hear boo about them.

My guess is that most Americans hate Russia because they are either ignorant or jealous.

I don't think it's an either - or binary like you've listed.

You can dislike more than one thing.

Unless you are simple.

Are you simple?

China and Saudi Arabia are the two biggest threats to the United States of America in my opinion.

Because the media and major political figures turned on a campaign of anti-Russian propaganda. It's really as simple as that.

Or perhaps all of those things and the fact that they occupied and enslaved all of Eastern Europe for half a century. But if you are the kind of person that overlooks such an imposing list of crimes, maybe you should move to mother Russia.

Again, you and others are equating all the Russian people and the current Russian state with the Bolsheviks who seized power through absolute violence and terror and subjected the Russian people to this tyranny more than anyone else. Stalin was a Georgian who used the Russian people for his international Bolshevik purposes. Millions upon millions of Russians were killed in the struggle of the Russian Civil War and murdered and imprisoned throughout the duration of the USSR's savage existence.

If you hate Russia or Russians today on account of Bolshevik crimes then you lack the ability to discern your true political enemies.

We need an enemy for the military complex to continue. The war in the ME has ran its course, so next one up.

Because Russia has moved right. They are a non PC Christian Nation with Anti gay policies. The media started hating Russia as soon as they moved center/right. They used to love the USSR.

Yeah! How can you hate the Russia of today?

They are totally a peaceful people who did not use brutal military force to take land from a sovereign nation with Crimea.

I mean, that was forever ago!
