I’m in no position to confirm or deny such a thing right now, with the fog of war still so thick. It depends on 1) what has actually occurred vs what Western war propaganda claims has occurred[1], and 2) which of the various narrow-to-broad definitions of genocide one deploys. When everyone is blaming everyone else of genocide while Gazans are literally being intentionally snuffed out, casual accusations ring a bit hollow.

It’s funny how in Feb. of 2022, Western corporate media suddenly memory-holed their own reporting on eight years of Ukrainian government-backed fascist Banderite paramilitary attacks on eastern Ukrainians, and flipped the ethnic cleansing narrative on its head virtually overnight.

What’s funny, is how you post this crap and still refuse to answer weather or not you’re pro-Russia.

The words “yes” and “no” are both complete sentence. Feel free to use either one that best answers the question.

Have you stopped beating your wife?

This is not a sportsball game or the Marvel Cinematic Universe. I’m not on the “side” of a capitalist state[1][2], which is what Russia and Ukraine and Ukraine’s “ally” are.

Yeah… predictably, you refused to answer. And for future reference, if it’s of any favor to you, I, and I’m sure many others- do not read any of your little copypasta links. So save yourself the time and effort and just…

Stop.

Maybe you can better use that saved time and effort to “Rule 1” more people from . ml?

I […] do not read any of your little copypasta links.

And it seems you never cite a blessed thing, though it’s hard to say since you delete most of your comments for some reason 🤷

[–] WrenFeathers@lemmy.world 3 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

What’s there to cite? I’m not saying anything other than asking you if you’re pro-Russia, and allowing others to see how you alwaysrefuse to answer.

Good for you. Anybody who cares—which is approximately no one—already knew my position, because I’ve never stopped explaining it in gory detail. So go ahead and report me to the House Committee on Un-American Activities.. I don’t care.

Wow… two truths in a single sentence! Who knew it would be possible?!

• Everyone already knows your position despite your refusal to admit it and…
• No one cares.
