- sofixa 4y agoRussians are really intent on setting the clock back. Fighting in the Donbass, trenches, poorly equipped human waves, genocide through attacks on civilians and kidnapping of children. It's like Putin and co are stuck in WW2 (at best).

- dang 4y agoThis sort of ethnic/nationalistic slur is totally unacceptable on HN and if you post anything like this again we will ban you. I'm shocked that any longstanding HN user would stoop to this degraded and shameful level. Yes, there's a war going on; nonetheless this line is not so hard to draw and you crossed it terribly. No more of this, please. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html Edit: from your recent comments it also looks like you've been using HN primarily for political/nationalistic battle. That's not what this site is for and we ban accounts that do it, so please stop.

- pessimizer 4y agoThat's not what the article says. The article is about adopting orphaned children from the breakaway republics.

- greedo 4y agoAnd referring to Ukrainian territory that was stolen by Russia as "breakaway republics" is disingenuous to be polite.
- pessimizer 4y agoThe article gives no evidence for any of its claims of kidnapping. Also, instead of attempting to propose a coherent reason why Russia would be kidnapping children and other civilians from areas that largely support Russia in the conflict, they just talk about other historical incidents of child adoption after massacres during domestic extermination by fascist regimes who we supported and allied with.
- kderbyma 4y agoThis is a common propaganda tactic as well. so it really does require evidence....it seems a conflict isnt a conflict until the incubators get in the news.....
