What's the ecocide angle? I haven't heard about that.
This is the point when i start to seriously doubt her, because Ukraine comitted:
Ecocide along the front lines, by mass usage of depleted uranium and cluster mines
Another one by blowing up the Kakhovka dam
Officially a huge one by blowing up Nordstream, and you cannot even blame this on war (ofc we all know USA did it, but she probably should believe official version? i don't remember if she ever commented on that)
Potentially a nuclear ecocide when they bombed Zaporozhia plant several times. They planned to capture Kursk nuclear plant, and called for nuclear strikes on Russia.
So even without all the context of nazism and imperialism and taking on a flat value she should at least bothside the war from ecological point of view but she isn't, she's supporting the side which does way more ecological destruction. And added context don't work for Ukraine side also.
They will say they did all of those things in self defense as Russia invaded.
Especially blowing up Nordstream 5 months before Russian intervention, and we all know they love nuclear "self-defence" ecocides like in Japan or Bikini atoll or nearly in Zaporozhia but what does this have to do with reality?
There is a lot of environmental destruction brought with war and a very large chunk of Ukraine won't be usable for a long time.
Ahh, yeah. There's so many ways in which this is awful.
