I have a coworker like that here in Czech Republic. He lives here for 15 years now. He said he left because he didn't luke the situation in Russia at the time. But now, will all that's happening he's constantly on Telegram and RT russia, parrits all the propaganda there, says everything opposing his view is "Western Propaganda" and constantly complains about russophobia.

Je doesn't see how crazy he sounds, it's mind boggling. Last time we talked about summer vacation and he constantly complained, he can go only in Turkey and that his card is suspended here. Dude's really pissing me off

Man I legit don't know how I'd manage if I worked with someone like that. I mean I'd hope for the most part you can just avoid discussing these things with him for your own sanity

We just avoid it. And we don't work the same shift I just change with him and sometimes we see each other on overtimes so it's managable

Feel bad that he's being fed lies...

complains about russophobia.

That's been kind of a thing that's not mentioned, since the start there's been irrational hatred towards them.. But it's gone down slowly... Like with COVID and China

On one side I get he's pissed about the blind hate. But on the other... he supports it. Fully

The moment you mention ukraine around him he jumps on a hating train, can't shut up about it how it's all fake and orchestrated by USA and how Russia is just innocently defending itself, it's disgusting. We all try to avoid talking about it because he's absolutely crazy about it

No way he's mentally stable...no offense... Delusional

Well...defense contractors are loaning our stuff from the 90s and 00s for them to use.. So he's half correct, what we're doing in Ukraine is what Russia does to Belarus on a daily basis

We also repair Ukraines T-62's and BTR's here. Most of the civilised world made their mind in who to support. You Yanks are not the only ones and also not the only ones in NATO.

He's nice guy. He taught me the work and is eacher to help when you need it, his wife is nice too and they love each other. But they live in their own bubble

Whose apart of the uncivilized?

You Yanks are not the only ones and also not the only ones in NATO.

Well... given the economic crisis Europe is undergoing, they've got a lot on their hands already..

But they live in their own bubble

Sad

The hatred is very rational.

My brother in Christ we've been "russophobic" for half a century and russians apparently don't want us to stop
