    “This is not state tv, but a private one.” - Dictatorship of the Bourgoisie = there is no difference.

    I mean, they burned whole villages, threw people alive from planes, pillaged, colonized, stole resources, massacred, helped USA achieve independence and killed natives, what can we expect from them to talk about?

    They did literally this in Kosovo and it passed, so they will do it every time they could.

    Also the discussion is sickening, not only the “times have changed so it’s not genocide anymore”, and straight up “it’s not genocide when we are doing that” to even especially mentioning post-WW2 resettlement to preemprively avoid any suggestions that maybe USSR not bad. And they also said, for the same reason, that “resettlement bad” but “making them leave” is good.

      “making them leave” is good.

      Whatever happened to the pearl clutching about Crimean Tatars?

        As usual, USSR bad. But “Times have changed”. Some people mention them in comments but the most is pure cope “noooooo they aren’t advocating for ethnic cleansing, they are just saying what could be done by UA”, but also “UA good, can do no wrong”. Real shitfest of cognitive dissonance.

    I should note the host is implying this is a disturbing idea, although his arguments are not very pushy or convincing. I’m sure he’s a huge lib though (I know the host, he’s nationally famous in France, just didn’t ever care to read into his politics). But sometimes they’ll do that to let the guest dig themselves into their own hole of arguments, and also French TV is different to US TV, hosts have to remain fair (like they used to in the US before Reagan)
