    Holy fuck that’s disgustingly inaccurate. If anything, Ukraine is analogous to Israel, when the Donbass being analogous to Palestine.

    The US has taken the side of the genociders in both conflicts. Plus it’s super gross to try to determine which act of mass murderer is worse, even if you had perfect information which you never do in such a situation

    Besides this being entirely inaccurate based on tactics alone, I don’t see Russian soldiers doing TikTok dances and third traps (IDF “waifu” or whatever the fuck she calls herself).

    This should probably go in shit reactionaries say (or whatever it’s called—idk because I have it blocked).

    In Mariupol, Russian troops were taking “unnecessary” losses because the Army preferred to clean out buildings room by room, ensuring each room is clear of civilians before shooting, and evacuating all civilians, instead of just bombing any suspicious building. How the hell does that compare with Israel which openly admits, in the most official manner, that its goals are to level Gaza completely and remove all Palestinians from there?

    Huh, I’ve actually seen very little of this in the western press myself. It’s usually just been “Israel is conducting a peaceful defensive genocide, which makes it ok, they’re nothing like those evil Russians!”

    I guess they’ve realised that people aren’t falling for the openly fascist statements by the IDF and so they’re trying to switch up to their next line of defence “Ok, our side’s actions are reprehensible, granted, but the enemy is still worse!”
