Of course. We crazy little man in Russia and the overly "woke" assume everyone, anyone and anything with ties to Russia (or a Russian name) is bad.
Even the whole idea of renaming Charlotte to Zelensky. First off, not a fan of renaming century+ old street. Furthermore, Zelensky is a hero now, but let's wait until the war is over and we have a full picture of his legacy before considering honouring him as such (he may very well have a corruption or sex scandal we don't know about yet).
We compulsively go with current "trends" that sometimes proves to be the wrong move in the long run.
