    While this person’s mindset here is reprehensible; try to avoid making sweeping generalizations based off a few encounters. It’s destructive and can be quite hurtful.

      I didn’t make sweeping generalizations I’m making a comment based on what is visible in the text. I’m sure not all Russians are like this but I’m not talking about all Russians where did you get the impression that I was?

        Using russian as a prular and “they” instead of “this guy” or something, probably gave that idea.

        I must have misunderstood then, my bad!

        I don’t think Russian’s a human

        This is clearly a typo of some kind and I interpreted it to the sentence “I don’t think Russians are human”. With the use of plural pronouns after this point, my misinterpretation caused the entire point of your comment to be warped which is how I came to the “sweeping generalizations” conclusion.

          Not a typo, they’re referring to the individual Russian in the post: " [that] Russian [is] a human"
