And yet, as soon as Trump took office they stopped helping ukraine. Your argument is shit, mate.

Because Trump is a Russian asset and defunding Ukraine benefits Putin.

Your basic understanding of global politics is shit, mate.

It’s your lack of basic reading comprehension. See, she said “racism”, not “ONLY BECAUSE OF racism”.

See those extra words? They modify the context.

Oh boy, now I have to define context…

Oh boy. If you they would have put that into their argument so that it wasn't shit 😄

The word you're actually looking for is xenophobic, not racism. Xenophobia explains the decisionmaking of states where the culture is at odds.
