This isn't entirely true. The anti-Russian hysteria in Britain was pretty thick during the 19th century. You could say it began with the rise of the July Monarchy in 1830, with Russia starting to mobilize its army to invade France to put the Bourbon dynasty back on the throne while the UK could not stop cumming at the thought their liberal family friend Louis Phillippe was now in power. The British's retarded war in Afghanistan in the early 1840s was just one example of pointless conflict meant to show Russia who's boss. The association of the bear with Russia did not originate with the Russians but as a pejorative by the British, depicting Russians are despotic rapacious brutes. Who are totally going to invade muh India At Any Moment ™Love this bit of historical revisionism. People were about as fine with Russia as anywhere else back before the communists took it over. Britain and France were allied with Russia in WWI and the royal family was related to the the other European royal families. The unusual amounts of hatred only came once it was the commies in charge.




Coming to the defense of turkroaches of all people. The fear of those dastardly Russian imperialists flooding across central asia didn't end until shortly before WW1, when hating those darn GERMAN imperialists took precedence.
