Ukraine got couped by the US in 2014, the current government is completely illegitimate, Russia would be doing them a favor by taking over and chasing us out
Iβm sure the relatives of the innocent civilian victims will agree with you and thank Putin for bombing them.
I'm sure the relatives of the 14,000 people killed by Ukranian nazis before Russia entered the war would love to hear your justifications for it.
Justifications? Every kill is bad wtf are u even talking about πππ
"Every kill is bad I just happen to only equivocate and make excuses when it's Russian people dying"
Cool story
Badass bro. Nothing screams βI donβt careβ like posting this ππ
Russia doesn't bomb civilians unlike ukraine.
And it saved a lot of innocent civilian victims from being ethnic cleansed.
As they had been trying to do since the 2014 coup.
But again the same double standards, the west didn't really care about what their proxy nazi's did to them.
They killed civilians. I have a friend who has a relative killed.
These things happen in war unfortunately.
When there are attacks with 500+ of drones and many missiles per day with only a handful of civilian casualties it's pretty clear that they are not 'targeting civilians and wanting to make as many casualties as possible' as the western propaganda claim.
Unlike ukrainians that deliberately target civilian infrastructure, from schools to hospitals.
I donβt think the main target is civilians, I think they have better targets (strategically speaking), you are right in this
This is lemmy.ml vro
Is it the place where people stop using their brains? O.O sorry first time here lol
I've been under the impression it's sort of a "tankie" place that glorifies enemies of the USA indiscriminately. So saying bad things about Putin will get you downvoted
There are a lot of communists here. We don't "glorify enemies of the USA indiscriminately," but we do oppose western framing and propaganda. There are plenty of valid reasons to be critical of Putin.
Thanks for the info, seems to be the case π will definitely refrain from commenting more here
