Approximately 1/3 of all refugees that left Ukraine went to Russia. Millions. That’s not what a genocide looks like.


That is an incredibly illogical statement.

Holding two ideas prisoners of each other doesn't hold water.

Even more simply, what about the other 2/3?

Link an independent media source or it's a lie.



I gave you the definition of the genocide and soon I will add the information to back it up.


They've already denied this through the teeth. Its a lost cause.
And the challenge is always proving intent, even if the outcome is clearly genocidal.

Arguing implicitly over the semantics and definition until their blue in the face. It seems its only genocide if the victims are Gazans or Iraqis.
As if they somehow cared about Muslims in far away countries, or more accurately because they are anti US, UK, Israel, West, freedom, progressivism.

THIS was your question



Stop moving goalposts by changing your question when you don't like the answer that you got ;)

I do not acknowledge genocide in Ukraine because 1) This was is clearly and 100% certain PROVOKED by the West and 2) had that not happened there wouldn't be war in the first place and no civilians killed. Although it's likely Ukraine would still have sent their far right neo-nazi brigades East to shell the ethnic Russians there (as they did).

Did a lot of civilians die? Obviously yes. Is that bad? Yes. The West should've realized that this is about geo-politics and a country like Russia (which isn't a gas station you can shut down with sanctions) doesn't like their historical opponents dictating what happens on their border.


the only genocide attempt was ukranian nazis shelling ethnic russians with the intention to cleanse them

as we know from history our ukrainian "friends" are pretty experienced at that, they massacre minorities since the 1920s and actively participated in the holocaust

It’s actually sound logic. If someone is trying to wipe out your ethnicity out you wouldn’t be going to them willingly. Remember in ww2 all the millions of Jews flocking to Germany and areas the reich controlled? Oh wait, no it was the opposite because those people knew that the further you got from Germany control the better chances. You guys sound like dolts labeling this a genocide tbh.

It CAN be argued, quite well in fact, that Russia committed cultural genocide (such as prohibiting language and ideas) but it the Ukraine war (which started in 2014 and which Russia joined recently) is just a war. like any other war. with war crimes. Ukraine cluster bombed its own minorities (also can be argued, genocide) for years and Russia intervened. it is what it is.

Absolutely false logic. And comparing two genocidal acts is futile even infantile.

At least come up with a watertight angle like its difficult or impossible to prove intent to commit genocide.

Russian actions are evidently genocidal. The actions of refugees fleeing a warzone does not change the outcomes of the actions Russia has taken.

Probably a half truth. The crux is what is the intention or desired outcome of Russia's actions during war?

They want eastern Ukraine to be part of Russia. The outcome will be at least ethnic cleansing of eastern Ukraine or Ukrainians, or forced assimilation to being part of the RF.

The attacks on civilian infrastructure regardless if its an act of war, can have a genocidal effect or outcome.
Blowing up the damn in Kherson was essentially ecocide, it was also a strategic "act of war".

The most difficult action to explain away is the forcible removal of Ukrainian children. Essentially human trafficking. A tenet of genocide.

and?

russia is not trying destroy the people of ukraine, we are talking abour collateral damage and "regular" war crimes here

the number of civilian casualties is actually very low in comparison to the battlefield deaths

in almost all conflicts the civilian deaths are WAY above combat deaths, not here

btw, we dont even know who committed the bucha massacre, there are no neutral sources

however there is still the statement of that mayor or so on video from the alleged day of the massacre and everything was fine, then ukraine marched into the place

sorry, but you have fallen for the media hysteria


Sorry if you don't acknowledge that firstly any of the crimes stated are leading to the definition of genocide being fulfilled.
I sent you the documentary of Mariupol where 25.000 civilians have been killed.
The only reason that civilian deaths are not as high is because they have fled from the war zones.

Bucha was occupied by Russian forces at that time,
There are Russian soldiers who have been identified as perpetrators from Bucha in various ways, e.g. calling with the phones from their victims they had previously killed:
"A chilling pattern emerged: soldiers routinely used the phones of victims to call home to Russia, often only hours after they were killed."

You seem uninformed

Another uninformed user, lol

Ohwait I heard you only read NATO twitter

Imagine the side you shill for shelling shopping areas in broad daylight with cluster rounds (provided by the West) and still claiming that Ukies shelling Donetsk was debunked / no proof / whatever other lies you come up with
