The intentional destruction of a people in whole or in part. Russia is doing that to Ukraine.

We have evidence of Ukraine banning the use of the Russian language, import of Russian books, Russian music, the banning of “pro-Russian” political parties. So we know Ukraine is engaging in what could be called cultural genocide. I’d love to see your evidence of actual genocide happening, though. I’m sure it’s real!

This is in no way equivalent hahaha. What kinda swill do they hand out in the IRA breakrooms these days?

Russia is invading the heartland of another distinct ethnicity and purging it. Ukraine is not doing that. It is simply clamping down on political liberties to ensure a stable war economy and political situation. This happens in every country that is forced to fight for it’s own existence.

lmao the Ukrainian state was committing those actions before the invasion you dumb fuck, hence the civil war between the years 2014 and 2022, also trying to erase the identity of half your population is not an example of a wartime measure, it’s ethnic cleansing and the Ukrainians are pretty open about it

Hence why the separatist Russian-speaking regions (especially Crimea) should win the war and prevent the expansion of state backed neo-nazism

Perhaps the Ukrainians should concentrate the population that shows Russian sympathy into small camps

You know, to keep a better eye on them and to ensure the security of the Ukrainian identity against the perfidy of the Russian abhumans

Do you think Russia is running death camps? Where are these purges supposedly taking place?

the heartland of another distinct ethnicity

Kievan Rus exists

Russian and Ukranian are almost the same language, as different as modern English is from Shakespearian English

Why do white people try to create ethnic differences where none exist? Russians and Ukranians are visually / genetically / culturally pretty much identical. It’s like saying North Korea invaded South Korea to purge it of Koreans!

So if chinese language is taught in your country and chinese publications are sold, this means your nation and culture has submitted to China?

this is the only part of ur comment that could feasibly be considered genocide and you didnt provide a source. and wikipedia isnt a reliable source

and Ukraine has been bombing civilian centers for the past decade. and that is well documented. maybe Ukraine is the real genocidal power

No just no. I lot of Ukrainians live in Russia or fled to russia. Russia would’ve started with them first if they wanted to do something that.

It’s a imperialist war at best started to secure a very strategically important location.
