You know both sides can be wrong. Just because Biden isn’t saying it doesn’t mean he’s not actively helping a genocide.
Bruh - where'd anyone say there isn't a genocide happening in Ukraine?
Let me be clear: The question of Russia's genocide of Ukrainians is no less uncertain than Israel's genocide of Palestinians. If one is genocide, both are genocide.
You're acting like this is some big-brained, "checkmate atheists" point you're making, but it completely falls apart when you consider who is and isn't getting help.
The US is arming Ukraine in it's defense against genocide.
The US is arming Israel in the perpetration of genocide.
If the US was arming Russia instead of Ukraine, you could bet your ass that "the kids" would be "whining" about it just the same, and you'd still be calling it manufactured outrage.
On the other hand - this all begs the question - would the US be so readily aiding Ukraine if the population weren't white and culturally similar? What if the Palestinians were white and christian?
Hexbear, and other tankie shitholes.
BTW, are you the VR guy?
… in paragraph 2 the responder says it’s genocide.
Let’s stay on topic. I talked about him allowing isreal to wage a holocaust on Palestinians. If he would leverage the same sanctions on Israel as on Russia or even threaten them I wouldn’t have complaints.
I'm trying really hard to decipher this comment and failing miserably. I have no idea what you're saying.
Aight. I didn't mean that as an insult or anything. I don't know if I agree with you or not.
Lol ok buddy.
It wasn't bait. I genuinely didn't know what you were saying. Now I do.
Is Biden bankrolling Russia? Didn't hear that before.
