Russophobia isn't a thing. Russian people aren't the issue, its the current regime and there are very good reasons for people to dislike the current Russian regime.
- They've interfered with multiple elections world wide - US, France, Germany, Poland, Estonia, Austria, Ukraine and Bulgaria
- They annexed Crimea
- They've murdered dissenting journalists
- They jail LGBT people
- They've caused the largest income equality gap of any country in the world.
- They're actively propping up a dictator that is committing warcrimes
- They're on the other side of almost every other world conflict from the US
And that's just the list I could think of in about 5 minutes...
Please stop trying to brush the Russian issues under the rug.
