I like how the lemmy lib who came in here deleted their comments and left like a coward. The trash takes itself out.

Actually according to the laws of the People's Republic of China, Russian is a legally recognized ethnic minority group and therefore all ethnic Russians everywhere are legally Chinese. And since in Apartheid South Africa it was determined that Chinese are legally black and Japanese are are legally white, Russians are by the transitive property BIPoC.
Russians are not white.
To elaborate, whiteness is not merely the color of your skin. To be white is to be part of the in-group. To be colored is to be part of the out-group.
Russians have not been part of the in-group since 2022 at the latest, with the Russian Invasion of Ukraine. Russians have not been part of the in-group since 2016 at the earliest, with Russiagate.
Just being European doesn't make you part of the in-group. Imagine that the Cold War went hot, and American and Soviet troops were battling it out in Germany. Moscow gets bombed. Would you not weep then, because it's just white killing whites?
Would you not weep for the Soviet victims of the Holocaust, for they were white by your standards, and you do not weep for whites killing whites?
Ukraine was shelling these areas for 8 years before the invasion you baby brained fuck
Genocide
Russia has never claimed to want to eradicate Ukrainian identity nor wipe out the Ukrainian people
Fewer civilian deaths in three years of conflict vs. three months of Israel bombing Gaza
Libs: No, our checking smol bean Nazirinos!
Genocide is when you put a stop to ethnic cleansing by actual nazis on your border. Fucking hell, from the same people who spent the first Trump term screaming about 1984 doublespeak. Now you motherfuckers are defending "temporary migrant overflow centers" and "de-escalatory strikes" in the middle east in defense of an actual genocide.
You blue maga freaks have gone full fash. "Look what you made the Nazis do with your resistance!"
How many times do our proxies need to show you dumb motherfuckers exactly who they are until you get the hint that you're on the wrong side?
CW ~~nazi shit~~ wholesome 100 democracy moments
Seriously. Couldn’t be more on the nose than a couple Nazis with wrinkly flags in what appears to be a dingy Ukrainian basement
shut up lib. jesus christ.
Rancid Ukrainian fascists are just little smol beans with no agency, they can't help but kill other Ukrainians who happen to speak a different language
You got anything more to say blue fash or did you meet your quota for defending mass murder today?
started this genocide
You're getting your countries mixed up. The US puppet regime in Kiev was the one that bombed Donbas's civilian population after coup'ing the original government.
That wasn't Russia. Hell, the Russian army was welcomed by the Donbas people as liberators when the SMO started in 2022.
The current lines of conflict are pretty much exactly the lines by which Ukraine's population is divided.
the actions of our enemies are nefarious attacks on the foundations of our society by evil despots, the actions of our allies are tragic natural disasters that we simply could not prevent and just had to happen
Do you think this thought-terminating cliche would come off any less stupid than the last thousand times you regurgitated it?
so far putin has only captured the part of Ukraine that the Ukraine govt was bombing for 7 years. Seemed like they didnt want eastern Ukraine that much.
maybe i'm a simpleton but i think the cause of this was an artillery shell
Slava Russia, slava Putin. Anyone with the most basic humanity should be grateful to Russia for striking the Banderites and ending their ongoing genocide in the eastern republics. Or did the lives of innocent children in the Donbass not count as "human beings" to you?
For those who conveniently forget the prior ongoing genocides against ethnic Russians and other minorities, if there's a hell no doubt there's a place reserved just for you. People with actual senses of decency remember cause and effect, you've simply demonstrated your complete inability to do so.
The Chinese political compass meme about Palestine, Russia, Ukraine and Israel continues to be true.
Unlike most people here, I agree with you. It's too bad that liberals cannot apply the same thinking when it comes to Israelis being killed for occupying Palestine.
not cool.
Please enlighten us. Why is it good that Ukraine is bombing bakeries in cities behind the front line?
Please enlighten us on why bombing civilian infrastructure is good. Like, who are you? Obama?
