I think calling it genocide is pretty unhinged. Is adopting an orphan child from Africa also a form of cultural genocide?

Nuance is important here. If these children are being forcibly ripped away from their families after an invading nation conquers another nation, it has legitimacy, but nuance matters.

You do you. Shilling for Russia murdering civilians and now you have an issue with it because the civilians are Arabs.

Your bias is showing.

Its not my definition.

Do you think nuance matters to a kid who's country is decimated, their parents are dead and they are sent to siberia. Their papers are destroyed so the can never return home.

Don't think nuance comes into it, I think its more reasonable to assume your in denial.

I think it's morally correct for an orphaned child to be adopted into a loving family, even if facilitated by the state who killed their parents as a result of war. Sent to Siberia to be a slave, of course horrendous and not justified in the slightest. But I'm assuming here that these kids are being adopted.

To my understanding these kids were from former territories of Ukraine that are now incorporated as territories of the Russian federation, so it doesn't make sense to me to give them Ukrainian papers, as their home is now Russia.

Then again I'm not highly educated on what is actually happening here with the children. It's also my understanding that the areas annexed by Russia were always Russophone, so there are no cultural changes here.

Yeah figured that wouldn't be an easy one for you lol

I am consistently against US imperialism, whether it be in Ukraine or Israel. At least you are consistent in your support for it though, the English trained you well.

Once RU gov and its lackeys are wiped out the whole bloc can unite and send U.S back to Oblivion. This is why U.S have interests into a long conflict.
U.S assistance is still welcomed, ATM.

What bloc?

Eu & ru, just have to expect they clean themselves from their own parasites ( the ~10% of russians who are profiting from the putin's system )
But what's funny is that if at some point US are in seriously bad position they would very certainly try to annex Canada...

ehmm? what?

Geographic proximity, direct roads, is the one thing that can do it, along with ethnic profiles and religion.
Russia didnt join EU because their rotten elite wanted to keep the power, priviledges, for themselves.

Ask yourself what if russians citizens had the choice to join EU ? Do you think they would refuse ?
And do you think U.S want that ? Why do you think U.S are repeating that Russia will never be allied with EU ?
