Well, someone had better notify the UN, various European, African, and Indian subcontinent governments, CNN, Al Jazeera, BBC, NPR, and other reputable news outlets that confirmed Africans, Indians, and Middle Eastern people were being targeted and prevented from exiting Ukraine. Apparently, they have it all wrong, but this Youtuber has discovered The Truth.

I am not doubting that there was racism at all, not even a bit. I don't know what the situation is on the ground. I will just gently note that very few news agencies have real people with boots on the ground to do in-person newsgathering. A lot of modern-day news has a single/few sources and is amplified when seemingly reputable agencies start quoting each other, making it seem as if the story has been corroborated through multiple diverse sources. The need to put up a headline and copy drives news agencies to do this because they don't want to look like they are behind the curve. This is what primarily gives rise to fake news stories - stories that turn out to be untrue as additional information is gathered.

Again, I am not doubting that there was racism in Ukraine.

Right, those sources aren’t credible. But you, some couch-sitting mouth-breathing nobody online know what’s really going on.

Exactly. PP is probably white and hasn’t suffered a day in their life of racism. But somehow, they are racism experts

Actually, I'm Asian American and I'm recently celebrating the win against systemic racism vis-a-vis TJ admissions. I do enjoy seeing people like you let your racist inclinations show through by castigating an entire race through a negative stereotype. I love winning against racists against you.

Ah, the bootlickers have arrived. Welcome! Your white masters don’t appreciate you, but you’ll serve them anyway, won’t you?

Thanks for proving my point that racists like you can't help but keep saying racist things. Enjoy the midterms when other racists like you are voted out of office.

^^That wasn’t the person you originally responded to. But keep calling everyone racists. Really helps your point.

Doesn't have to be the same person. There can be more than one racist, you know. One of them makes the "probably white" comment, revealing him/herself to be a racist, and the other one called me a boot licker who serves a white master in reaction to learning that I'm Asian American. I'll call out racists all day long, whether they are in Ukraine or here in the US.

👏👏👏

Is this what they were talking about in the cyber awareness challenge? You're either a Russian troll, bot or I'm very sorry for the hand you were dealt in life.

There are virtually no black people in Ukraine. You're talking about probably one ten-thousandth of the population. This is like starting a thread about transgender white people in the Congo

My understanding is that women and children were being prioritized, not necessarily that racism was at play.

Declaring “martial law” should be a war crime. Anyone of any gender should be allowed to leave The Ukraine.

As an African American screw you Ukraine and Poland.

Slav cultures are deeply racist. They basically missed the civil rights era because they were locked behind the Iron curtain.

To them , Turks are "black people"

" I ate like a White Man tonight " is a way of stating you ate like a King in Russian culture. You people didn't know this ??? Seriously ?

Some look at the incredible virtues of the Ukrainian people in their most desperate hour and want to talk about racism in a country devoid of blacks.

Ok.

Two things can be true. Or they can't, not in my mind. You are not a virtuous person is you are a racist. Does that mean invade them? No, but they are racist and their actions were and are deplorable. Some people rise to do the right thing in the most difficult situations, these people that the student in the video describes acted with utter lack of humanity, they did not see students as human beings.
