Following the attack on Ukraine’s energy system, Reuters reports that half a million people in Kharkiv region were left without heating on Christmas Day, in temperatures just a few degrees Celsius above zero. Meanwhile there were blackouts in the capital Kyiv and elsewhere.
Russia has intensified attacks on the Ukrainian energy sector since spring of this year, damaging almost half of its generating capacity and causing prolonged blackouts.
Interesting. Should the same thing be done to America?
While whataboutism is pretty common when discussing russia. The actions of russia and the US are not comparable.
It would be like if the US annexed Basra Governorate. Stole all the children to US mainland (and sent them to re-education camps). Sent any Iraqi in Basra caught speaking Arabic into a torture camp. Banned Islam and forced everyone to convert to protestant Christianity. And on top of that forced all Iraqis in annexed Basra to eat Tex-Mex style pork chops.
Could you please cite your sources that Russia has kidnapped every child in eastern Ukraine and sent them to reduction camps. Could you please cite your sources that Russia sent every Ukrainian speaker to a torture prison. Could you please cite your sources that Russia banned a religion and forced all of eastern Ukraine to convert to a different one.
And could you also explain where the line is that all Russians deserve mass collective punishment, which Americans, who’s country invaded multiple others, killing millions, operating torture camps, and are now openly and full throatedly supporting the full extermination of Gaza, have not crossed?
We both know that this is easy to validate. Furthermore, you know it is true, but you keep lying.
I also think you are lying about your concern regarding Gaza. It’s more of an aesthetic for you. You will happily condone atrocities and white-wash genocidal imperialism when it suits your tankie LARP. It would be like me claiming that “Israel is complying with a legal and moral rules during its security operation in Gaza” Just in case you forget what you are LARPing about, I don’t believe this.
Now cite your sources showing 80% US support for the annexation of Basra, banning Islam, Arabic and forcing muslims to eat pork chops. You did claim the actions of US and russia are comparable, didn’t you?
Ah ok, you’re just a bad faith troll. Never mind.
It’s true though. Your tankie LARP isn’t convincing anyone.
