I don’t understand this comment.

It's a meme deployed whenever a westerner describes something their government does as bad by way of comparing it to 'those evil asiatics' as if it's natural to them but not to us

It's extremely racist in a way that most people don't even think about, so the meme is to needle them into understanding

I see. What I said did not come from a place of racism against Russians. I am aware that the USA and associated governments can be every bit as messed up, although in less obvious ways.
