      To be fair at least the Ukraine war is an actual war, Israel and Netanyahu have not been fighting a war in Gaza, they have been committing Genocide.

      Fuck Putin, fuck russia but Israel is terrifying on a different level to me given the rightwing extremism that suffocates the country.

        Russia IS committing genocide.

        Ukrainians fighting back doesn’t mean russia is not committing genocide.

        Like their regular army even uses FPVs to hunt civilians in Kherson. Thats as if whatever they do in occupation areas isn’t enough.

          Yes, but ALL Israel is doing is a genocide. There is no war in Gaza, it is in open air prison undergoing ethnic cleansing. This is also why Israeli troops are getting their ass kicked in Lebanon, the IDF is a genocide machine masquerading as a professional military.

          The IDF is not capable of war, only state endorsed violence against the defenseless.

          Russia is absolutely committing genocide, but Israel is in its own category.

            Tbf they are in the same category, just different size. Ukrainians aren’t the first victims of russian empire, they are the first who fight back with a decent success. Many others are russified already - their history and identity erased, yet they are still second class citizen cause they don’t have “slavic” facial features.

            But my original point stands - Ireland not only selling alumina to russia but russians owning a whole whooping plant in Ireland is literally worse.

              Gaza is an open air prison, Ukraine is not.

              It is more sensible to compare Gaza, The West Bank and other territories experiencing Israel’s genocide to concentration camps than true warzones. There is no war, just murder murder murder murder.

              I would compare the occupied territories of Ukraine to what is happening in Israel as in both cases there is an authoritarian violent power with control over all the utilities, movement and with a monopoly on violence, but I reject the idea that a “war” occurred after October 7th, what occurred after October 7th was a genocide and nothing else.

              Ukraine on the otherhand has been a war much to the consternation of Putin and russia.

                All of Ukraine would be in russian occupation zone if not for relentless resistance since 2014.

                Russia did plan to do just that. Everyone in the West was okay with that. Ukrainians were the only ones that weren’t okay with that.

        You shouldn’t split hairs over which, actual up and running, genocide is worse.

        Because with that logic the one that isn’t worse is then somehow “better”, and that is just not true.
