If there is no democracy in Russia, can the Russophobia and the Cancel culture, which is now being actively promoted in the West, be considered fair? Should Russian athletes and ordinary citizens be oppressed in some way if there is no democracy in Russia and Putin is an authoritarian dictator? I urge you to be consistent in this regard. If someone is restricted in their rights just because he is Russian, then there is democracy in Russia, and not in words, but in deeds. Is it logical?
Like I said multiple times already, nothing happens without a reason. Until 24th February Russians in world were completely normaly. They were accepted and welcomed everywhere. Though, some things is overkill and even looks a bit ridiculous. Removing Gagarin from history or Tchaikovsky music from orchestras isn't ok. But it' not policy of government, they didn't banned them. It's just individual decisions.
