Yes its been 77 years now. I wouldn't expect normalization after mass murder and threatening to nuke everyone next year or in the next 10.

I don't think he's talking about something 77 years ago vs. now.

He want's to describe the association to the generalization. Eg. Nazi vs Germans. And Russians vs. 'Putin's Russians?'. I don't know how to describe it better.

The description of the problem at hand could have been better, but I do agree it's an issue.

I know the difference between the groups. But it could be confusing for someone else who is eg. Russian and they could feel offended.
