    I think … maybe…

    Civilians injured in Ukraine gets the US Ambassador to say, “Hey, support Ukraine!”

    Civilians injured in the Palestinian territories but there are no US Ambassador’s tweeting, 'Hey support Palestine!"

          I’m not for the killings of innocent civilians, is all. This is mostly a fight between the oligarchs involved. I’m sure most actual ukrainians are fine, as most russians.

            Mmmmmmmm that’s highly dependent. I follow the axiom of “where one nazi sits at a table with a dozen people, if the people there stay seated, there’s now thirteen nazis in the room”. I never saw any meaningful attempt to get away from that table from large swathes of Ukranian civilians save the ones that actually deserted.

              a better axiom is “could i apply the responsibility i’m expecting of civilians to children” fuck are ukrainian kids supposed to do about nazis in government? the disabled? pensioners?

              and the ukrainian opposition parties that were banned & leaders jailed/disappeared—they aren’t evidence ukrainians aren’t all fash?
