To me Russians seem like white people who reject their whiteness, sort like the Irish but the Irish don’t try to reject it anymore. What’s your opinion?

They are white until they are orcs.

Unless you live where I do. We have a large Slavic population here that faces a number of structural barriers, to the extent that a lot of demographic forms here list White (Western European) and Slavic (Eastern European) separately and there are specific social service organizations serving them like with other minority communities here.

Shit is super contextual.
