Some Americans are attacking anything in the US associated with Russia — even Russian restaurants.

Since 2020 some have associated the Chinese people with Covid-19, and take it out violently at random on people in the US that might be of Chinese ethnicity. Now some are doing likewise with people that might be of Russian ethnicity.

They should reserve their rage for Trumputin -- he's Putin's biggest and most persistent supporter in the US. He even directly hampered military support for Ukraine and threatened to eliminate NATO.

I more or less agree with the article in regard to Russian sports and art stars, those who would prefer to be apolitical. Those who actively support Putin can be held responsible for that.

Russians who criticize the war, or the government, face repression, and their friends and coworkers pressure them to hush up.
