There’s whole groups of people who have a problem with the genocide in Palestine but don’t care about the one happening in Ukraine.
We’re not selling weapons to russia for genocide.
There’s a lot of people who have a problem with russia but dearly love everything netanyahu is doing.
That’s because, there isn’t. Russia just taking out the Nazi’s
Women and children, though?
Still not a genocide. There is no war where women, children, and other civilians don’t end up getting killed.

Also, a lot of people seem to think that this started in Feb. of 2022 when it really started eight years before.

Wasn’t 2014 the year Crimea was invaded?
It was the year that Ukraine was couped; the year that Crimea, Donetsk, and Luhansk voted by referendum to secede from Ukraine; and the year that Crimea voted by referendum to join Russia.
That’s the referendum with 89% voter turnout where 97% voted to leave Ukraine?
Those are almost unbelievable numbers.
Do you find it hard to believe that a majority Russian & Russian-speaking people, with family and business ties in Russia, whose president they voted for had been couped, might prefer joining Russia over the far-right wing anti-Russian coup government of Ukraine?
Your unwillingness to believe them is not proof of anything
