pro tip: Don't attribute the actions of a nation state's appendages to the whole of its population as if everyone is implicated and on the same side when you wouldn't want the same done back to you. It just reinforces useful narratives for nationalists. Be specific and say what happened instead.examples:bad: The Russians hacked the DNC.good: An entity appearing to have originated from within Russia, likely the FSB, hacked the DNC.bad: The Americans bombed Kunduz hospital.good: The US Army and its mercenaries bombed Kunduz hospital.Just like you wouldn't say "us" when talking about the nation you reside within, avoid this nationalist linguistic trap from the "them" perspective for an internationalist perspective instead.
