"Just one of the myriad of reasons to avoid anything Russian:

Sorry - I find this a knee-jerk reaction worthy only of the tabloid press.
It ignores the great culture of Russia - are we to "avoid" Russian music, ballet etc.?
It ignores the fact that Russian families are grieving over the deaths of possibly thousands of soldiers, that many Russians never wanted this war and agonised over Slavic "brothers" fighting each other, that soldiers are being slaughtered due to the ineptitude of their commanders - are we to regard all Russians as "Sick Fks"?
The villains are the leaders - Putin and the yes-men who facilitate his war. No-one else.
