    At this rate Ukraine is genociding it’s own population

    We should not throw this term around casually.

      yeah i don’t think genociding, as much as I hate the Kiev regime, is the right word in this context. They were conducting ethnic cleansing operations in the Easternmost territories tho.

      Not with intent, but almost in effect. Conscription is a death sentence and Ukranians are hiding in fear of the kidnapping squads. Losses have been staggering and completely unsustainable. Yet Kiev keeps going all-in on some new escalation and another, which only really promise to gut the population further. While they might posture to the contrary, the Kiev regime cares little more for the lives of the Ukranians than those of Russians.

        Intent is a key element of genocide. Just like if you kill someone by negligence it’s not murder, if you kill a lot of your own people by mismanaging a war it’s not genocide.
