      Since you like relying on evidence and moral bases so much, what is your evidence Russia is committing a genocide in Ukraine? Reminder: a genocide has to be explicit. Killing soldiers of a country you’re at war with does not meet the standard to be killed genocide.

          Mass graves do not fit in the criteria set by the UN for genocide.

          Secondly Bucha was an Azov crime. The mayor just a few days before Ukraine rolled into the city did not mention anything about a killing of civilians. There were recordings made just a few days before they suddenly “found” all the civilians where the streets were completely empty with no bodies.

          For Izium there’s videos of Russian troops burying people properly and even Ukrainian POWs witnessing the burials. They were likely set up in a mass grave by Ukraine to farm atrocity propaganda.

            Oh so now it doen’t meet your criteria dude. Typical tankie I bet u don’t consider the holodomor a genocide either. You talk about morals and then say killing civilians ain’t a crime. Such a lack of self awareness… How do you even breathe.

              The holodomor is a lie created by nazis to downplay the actual genocide of the Holocaust, by spewing this bullshit your engaging in a form of Holocaust denial

              China liberating Tibet from a theocracy built on a foundation of slavery and run by pedophiles wasn’t a genocide either

              All of your boy who cried Adolf garbage is just making it easier for actual fascists and nazis to maintain or regain power and you’ll somehow alway find an excuse to support them

              I don’t know how fascists like you function, don’t care either

              Where in the UN definition for genocide do mass graves count as genocide?

                Lol, u pretending to be so moral that you hide behind the strictest definitions of the word genocide. If committing hundreds to 30,000 war crimes isn’t bad enough for you to take seriously then yeah I’m guilty of a bit of hyperbole, at least I’m not a genocide denier like you clearly are. The UN takes its sweet time to name atrocities with “genocide” but changing that definition doesn’t make the innocent in those mass graves killed by Russian troops any more alive.

                  I’m using the UN definition of genocide which most states have agreed to. Earlier you said that most states did not recognize the referenda held in the Donbass so they didn’t count. You’re projecting so much we could watch a movie with the whole 'grad on your forehead bro, have some academic rigour if you’re gonna try arguing.

                    The only thing you contested is that it’s not considered a genocide & after which I said I was guilty of hyperbole. But I noticed how you didn’t dispute the fact that mass graves show up everywhere the Russian army occupied. How you can support such barbarity while it’s ongoing is past my capabilities to understand, you should teach classes about how to live in denial.
