    Hitler is famous for his book “Mein Kampf” which translates to “My fight” the book cover is literally almost the same.

    Still don’t get how making fun of a warmonger using a history person makes me racist tho.

    Is it that you look highly at Putin and have embraced his cult of personality?

      Putin is a race now, apparently.

        And I can’t be racist against muslims, because that’s a religion, not a race, amiright? /s

      Thanks, I know of Hitler and Mein Kampf. I even know German, wouldn’t you believe it. 🙄 (Also: the better translation would be “My Struggle”)

      Can’t you see that the image looks a lot like racist caricatures of when humans (usually plack people) where drawn like/compared to apes.

      Is it that you look highly at Putin and have embraced his cult of personality?

      WTF? Taking umbridge with racist imagery means that I’m a Putin simp now? Do you *reallyy think that racist caricatures are OK when it’s directed at the “right” people? O.o

        I guess I can see the connection you’re trying to make. But I can hardly still connect it to mindless rascism since there are quite a few reasons why monkey comparison is used.

        There is a cult of personality around Putin, or any other dictator. Where making fun of him, lands you in jail. Public images like that are a fight against it. (Like Jinping drawn like winnie pooh).

        Also I’m pretty sure that you’re the one being racist. Since you saw the monkey and instantly came to the conclusion of racism (with the example of black people). For shame.

          Are the reasons because russians are sub-humans, maybe? /s

          Again: how does this excuse racism? You’re constantly dodging the issue.

          Also I’m pretty sure that you’re the one being racist.

          Ah, the good old alt-right defense of “I can’t be racist if I didn’t think about it. In fact, if you think aboutit, you’re the racist”-defense. 🙄

            I guess you see Putin and think all Russians. Sad. You should really try to meet some. Quite interesting people with their own culture and traditions.

            Also I’m pretty sure quite a lot of them right now would feel quite attacked by you grouping them with the Ape that decides it’s a good idea to casually launch ICBMs and risk preemptive response.

                I’m sorry for the challenges you face in your daily life. I really thought you were smart enough to know the difference between Putin and general Russian populus. I wish you best of luck in your endeavours, friend.
