I would say that everything is propaganda, both sides had equal influence. For example, I can't remember a Hollywood movie where the Russians aren't some kind of villains or portrayed as bullies. again, it is not that the Russian side does not help in creating the overall picture.

Russians on the other hand don't have access to free media. They don't know how we think about them. But they are being lied to how we think about them.

a clear example of dictatorship. if we add to that poverty and a large number of uneducated people, it is a very suitable ground for manipulation.

It is phobia when the fear is irrational.

Fear of Russian genocidal maniacs is perfectly rational.

The vast majority of Russians are violent and aggressive. They hate Europeans and Americans.

Their culture consists of drinking, swearing, stealing, and most of all LYING.

Russkiy Mir only brings misery.

Is this your opinion based on your personal experience with the Russian people, or just what you saw in the movies or read on the Internet?

Family history. Half of my family was murdered by Russians and another quarter died in gulags.

As for deporting all Russians, well, they all pose a risk when this conflict spreads to other countries.

They have to be deported now or will have to be interned later.

All supporters of Putin in the West must be arrested and deported NOW. You can vet and deal with the rest later.

Russian imperialism kills people. If you underestimate it, you are in danger.

The West should stop diplomatic relations with Putin's Russia.
