The fucking orcs were setting up whites only bars. Good for Sri Lanka for kicking them out.

This comment sound as much racist as the people you are referring to, i hope you realize that you are just like them
It sounds like the “orcs” this person was referring broke the tolerance contract first, by setting up white only bars. I see no problem here at all. Bigots aren’t deserving of any sort of civility.
In what way is that racist?
I was going to say that I preferred them to stay in Sri Lanka, at least they would not become more soldiers for Putin… But moving there and then creating “whites only bars” 🤦, yeah, Sri Lanka is right in kicking them.

It was one party, since cancelled. How do you think you’re justified in what you’re saying?
Because they are all the same? That’s a stupid fucking take right there.
Funny how everyone picked up on and quotes the single instance news story. Like litter boxes in school bathrooms, left-leaning edition. Let the hate flow through you
These down votes sure seem like people unable to face their own hypocrisy.
I visited Sri Lanka a few months ago, I remember visiting Hikkaduwa (a beach town in the south-west) and there were tons of Russian tourists there. All the local businesses had signs in Russran, and some hotels rooms even had Russian flags hanging from the balconies.
I remeber talking to a Belarussian woman who has escaped Belarus when the war on Ukraine started because she was a political dissident and it was dangerous for her to stay. She’s been working there as a waitress ever since she arrived.
How did she feel about serving Russian tourists? I mean, not every Russian is pro Putin, let alone pro war. But if you feel the need to hang a freaking flag other than the one of the opposition from your hotel’s balcony you probably belong to the ribbon wearing scum.
She described being enraged by them and wanting to strangle them, but then she takes a deep breath and reminds herself that that kind of violent impulse is what wrought this war in the first place, so she tries to avoid that type of thinking
An Israeli bloke was telling me the other day how loads of russian Jewish people had gone to Israel to avoid the war. Actually lol’d
Well if they’re gonna have to participate in fighting, perhaps they’re smart to choose the better equipped army who are “fighting” unarmed and malnourished children in an open-air prison.
The moral thing would be to not participate in either, ofc.
I’m just pointing out I can see the logic they used.
Yeah it’s not ironic at all, they won’t be conscripted in Israel
Admittedly an horribly flippant comment on my part. He was actually saying how most of the russian Jewish were highly educated and hardworking compared to the average Israeli, and a massive boon to the country
Not sure how to feel about that given both country’s circumstances
Jews or “Jews”?
You can just say you’re a converted Jew right? With proof. There must be some people trying some shady shit to get the proof.
I mean this kinda awful. They’re not their government and they clearly don’t want to be part of the war.

But they are racist and have a “white only” policy in a country that isn’t even theirs. So why should that country host them?
It comes amid a furious social media backlash over Russian-run businesses with a “whites only” policy that strictly bars locals. These businesses include bars, restaurants, water sports and vehicle hiring services.
I understand their response with this. IIRC Indonesia is having the same problems with Ukrainians and Russians staying in Bali to avoid the war. The situation got so problematic the local government added Russian to their warning signs.
Although the Russians are more problematic since their banks got sanctioned and cannot use Visa networks so they’re unable to pull any money from the ATMs and have resorted to taking local jobs and even panhandling there.

time to go home and overthrow the asshole who keeps fucking up their country.
After all Sri Lanka does have previous experience with committing genocide and getting away with it.
War crimes in a civil war and immigration issues involving Russian tourists. They seem a tad bit unrelated :P
Yeah I understand. I got upset with few comments that were praising Sri Lanka. I just wanted to remind people that Sri Lanka has its skeletons too. Hidden away in mass graves.
Hope they do the same in Seychelles. That’s where they’re going too.

For all the same arguments listed here.
Can I get a 6 month visa as a yankee? What a great place to digital-nomad!

Their economy. Not mine.
Tonnes of websites will give you info on being a digital nomad.
Seeing as the country took a hit lately things should be cheap and they will be happy to have someone supporting the economy. If its safe it sounds like a real option.
Digital nomad is just a word for tech bro immigrant, just like expat is a word for white immigrant. Just own it and say you’re an immigrant, it sounds less stupid.
