    It’s a very common lib opinion that Russia is genociding Ukrainians. When pressed, the only point they are consistently confident in is the story that Russia is kidnapping Ukrainian children and Russifying them, which I think is shaky because it will have mostly been ethnically Russian children being taken out of a warzone and also Russia has cooperated (albeit on a very small scale) with humanitarian organizations to reunite children with families. It’s nonetheless true that there is something to discuss on the topic because of this, however you interpret it, though equivocating it with what Israel is doing is disgusting even if you assume the most anti-Russia interpretation is true.

    With Iran, I think it’s literally just Bad Country and therefore it does every Bad Thing.

    “Axis of Evil” is a fucking Bush-ism. It’s hilarious for libs to be saying it, because it’s such a pure expression of the fact that Democrats are Republicans on a time delay.

      the story that Russia is kidnapping Ukrainian children and Russifying them

      I don’t doubt there might be isolated instances of this, but libs are going off of Ukrainian war-time propaganda. You can be explicit about it with them: what is the primary source for your claim? Inevitably after 4 times of back and forth explaining what a primary source is, they’ll go to the website made by the Ukrainian gvt where they show the supposed tens of thousands of kidnapped kids. There is a UN report talking about the topic and if memory doesn’t fail, the actual confirmed number is about 300 total. There is no journalistic work proving anything remotely similar to the tens of thousands number, no primary evidence, just a number on a website. That’s literally all it takes.

      when bad country does war, it’s all war crimes. even the parts that arent.

      when good country does war, none of it is war crimes, even the parts that are.
