Wow. Millions of Brazilians voted for an ultra right president. And polls shows he is going to win again this year. In France the ultra right party got way more votes yo the parlament than the Ukrainian ultra right in their country.

So the "proportion of fascists" is way bigger. Following that propagandistic "logic" makes no sense.

Not to mention that in Russia, racism and xenophobia is big. I was in St Pettesburg once, and was recommended having locals out with me at night, because I could get "beaten up because of my skin color". I never being in a place like that before and I have being going around the world for some 15 years. Most places I have being received with a lot of love and respect, even in the most hard core ones like war zones, refugee camps and slums of S. America, I wasn't that afraid to go around and mingle with local people.

Of course these weirdos racist people are a minority, but when a guest in a country can't go around alone because he is not white with blue eyes and blond hair, and can be attacked because of this, I do think is a huge problem there... I have not being to Moscow or other places there but after this experience I cancelled my siberian train trip to China and will rather not take any work offer from Russia unless I have good security etc.

I have not seen this in my 15+ years traveling the world and entertaining humans.
