> "remember Russian people are innocent, it's just Putin we hate!"

That's pretty much gone in the comments section on r/politics.

The vitriol directed against Russians is often over the top now.

As someone who remembers the hatred towards Russians by the American Right during the 80s that is fairly disturbing to me.

Of course the Hacker News threads which try to play down the consequences of a nuclear exchange with Russia are probably worse.
