Que raro, el otro comentario está en otro lenguaje también y no tiene ese problema. Será que es la asociación con ese lenguaje debido ha eventos corrientes que es el problema con el estigma del lenguaje?
Uhh, that’s a really weird fucking thing to do imo. Just because China has a dogshit government doesn’t mean I should downvote any post in Mandarin, nor would I go off on a Russian comment simply for existing without knowing any context. Like are people downvoting English comments just cause Trump sucks? You have no idea if that Russian person likes Putin/invading Ukraine.
I don’t disagree with it not being a smart idea, but the English = Trump/US comparison doesn’t quite hit because most English speakers are not from the US. Not to mention Putin seems more popular in Russia than Trump is in the US.
Я думаю, что русскоговорящих на Лемми почти нет.
Edit: it’s funny how in a thread about racism, people are massively downvoting comments in a language other than English: D

Which one? You mean the Ukrainian response that got four downvotes?
Stigmatising a language, which is frequently one of crucial elements of people’s identity, is pretty fucking racist.
Ist das wirklich lustig, auf eine ironische Art, oder vielleicht einfach nervig, weil es die meisten nicht lesen können?
It really is funny to me. Maybe annoying for others.
Let’s not pretend Google Translate isn’t a couple of taps away.
I assume it’s because you’re writing in Russian and there’s a lot of (deserved) anti-Russian sentiment lately.

Sounds like racism. The downvotes were also piled upon the guy who responded in Ukrainian, btw.
I would bet 99% of English speakers cannot differentiate between Russian and Ukrainian.
