    Nowhere did they say Ukraine is committing genocide. They said Ukraine also executed POW’s which is backed up by video evidence.

      Hey, remember how that article is unverified by independent sources and comes directly from Russia? Ya know, propaganda? Hey, that video evidence that you claim is proof, can’t Russian soldiers dress up as Ukrainian and then execute people?

      Hey, do you have any independent thoughts going on?

      STILL waiting on a response. Lmao

      Because they implied it. I’m familiar with how that works, from tankies to conservatives. You should be too.

      STILL waiting on that response, six hours later, about the executions Russia alleged with no independent verified sources. How is that a “good example”? Using propaganda as a source and then trying to claim that user didn’t imply it? Okay lol

        They did not imply it. They said that executing POW’s is not genocide but a war crime. Then they provided a good example showing why it is a war crime and not genocide.

        You are imagining them saying something they did not say.

          Still waiting on why unverified reports by Russia (propaganda) is a “good example” lmao

          Did I imagine that too?

          Downvotes and has not once mentioned how their entire argument hinges on false propaganda.

          They definitely implied it by denying Russian genocide, ignoring relevant historical context, and then drawing a false equivalency on the standard of genocide by saying: “If this is your standard for genocide then you should also be saying Ukraine is committing genocide.”

          The example wasn’t very good when surrounded by context. That article is also reports by Russia, unverified by independent sources (read: propaganda). I didn’t imagine anything, I just read it and I am familiar with how these types operate. Same playbook as MAGA.

          You’ll notice further down the chain they refuted nothing, used a buzz word, and resorted to mockery.

          Still waiting on your response about using propaganda as a “good example”.

            They linked an article about Ukrainians executing POW’s. That is a directly applicable comparison to this post.

            They mocked you because you are making up things they did not say.

              Okay. You didn’t read the articles I linked and you don’t mention or seem to understand why the historical context is relevant and important to that incident.

              I don’t even think you read that article they linked, because it comes from Russian sources with no independent verification. Most likely it is propaganda. Is it still directly applicable? Am I still the one making stuff up? Keep on defending tankies though.

              9 hours later and still waiting on your response about how Russian propaganda that’s unverified by any independent source is “directly applicable”?? Almost like you’re a liar.

                None of the articles you linked imply Russia is currently committing genocide in Ukraine. A list of past genocides including the Nazis has little relevance on the present. Except that you are admitting the current invasion is not a genocide… because it is not on the list you linked.

                Calling everything tankie is not an argument and you should stop doing it.

              Still waiting for that response to the Russian propaganda article that wasn’t verified by independent sources. You’re very pro-independent sources right? Or is that only when it bolsters your argument?
