A russian missile has apparently hit a residential building in Kiev, killing a ukrainian “journalist” working for the ukrainian language edition of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (Radio Svoboda). Remember, RFE/RL is a CIA propaganda arm used to spread anticommunist propaganda. Anyone working for it is a propagandist and a proffessional liar, not a journalist. RIP BOZO Rest in piss you wont be missed. One less liar spreading russophobia and sinophobia 🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀

    I will never understand the term war crimes. War itself is criminal, so its just varying degrees of barbarity.

      I would argue that there are things that should be classified as criminal, even for a criminal endeavour like war - just look at things imperial Japan did in China, for example.

      That said, people seem to not know (and not want to know) actual definitions for the term and just throw it out at whatever the “bad guys” are doing. Or what they think they are doing, like that story about how “Russian spies are marking residential buildings for missile strikes”. Or the one about “Russian tank purposefully running over a car”. All those stories dilute the meaning of the term and cheapen the suffering.

      Yeah that is the point. War crimes are especially fucked up shit during war time.
