    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.
