Is ok to be xenophobe against Russians now?
There are plenty of Russians who are wonderful persons.
It's like judging all Americans for what Trump is doing.
In case you haven't noticed, that is what is happening
There are also plenty of Russians invading their neighbour, slaughtering thousands of innocent people.
Just like the complacent Americans sitting by watching their "leader" destroy the civility of the free world. The Russians are no better.
Being a bad or good person is not tied to nationality.
No it's tied to your actions and principles.
Exactly.
Being Russian is not an action, nor a principle. It just states the fact that you, as a person, has been born in a place called Russia.
And inaction is just as big of a choice as action. You can't just abstain from the choice.
The Germans civilians that lived outside the concentration camps were as guilty as the guards themselves.
Obviously I don't believe the levels of guilt aren't the same as say Hitler himself but they were guilty nonetheless.
What are you doing to stop Putin?
It's called conscription. Russians have two choices: poverty or war. And the slaughter is way bigger in the russian lines.
There is a third one. Overthrow that damn imperial psychopath in their government.
Easier to say than to do. Not even Wagner group could do it.
