- Giorgi 3y agoYes, US side, NATO side and Ukraine side, war crimes that US has committed are also very bad. Even though considering "whataboutism", Russians as a nation are universally hated among their neighbors, they invaded, killed and displaced and are currently occupying lands in Georgia, Moldova, Ukraine, Kazakhstan etc. etc. And that would be main difference, while US bombs tyrannic regiments and topples dictatorships, Russia invades and is trying to annex their neighbors. It has economy roughly of a Spain and is basically a shithole thug regiment that needs to be dissolved and fast.
- senttoschool 3y agoYikes. I hope you realize that your views are extreme. One might even call that an extremist or terrorist. "When we kill people, it's because we're good. When they kill people, it's because they're evil." Note: Not a supporter nor an expert of Russia.
- Giorgi 3y agoWrong. These are not views, these are facts. Yes, Russia is a terrorist state. As I said, war crimes are wrong no matter the "side". However there is huge difference between bombing tyrants and dictators vs raping kids in Ukraine. Note: Sure.

- throw_m239339 3y agoAbsolutely, but the Ukrainian government is rotten to the bone and ultra corrupt as well, it needs to be exposed. Officials are lining their pockets with foreign aid, including the Ukrainian president. I'll still support Ukraine over Russia, but Ukrainian officials are crooks, and you cannot say that on r/worldnews without facing a ban.
- mavhc 3y agoOn the plus side they've not invaded other countries and killed a load of people, not exactly a fair comparison. When they're not at war would be a good time to bring that up
- jstarfish 3y agoIt makes leadership complicit and is entirely fair if parent is correct; nobody's going to give a shit about wartime grift after the fact. Men are/were being conscripted to defend that country. Knowing your leadership is selling you out is actionable information to those deciding whether to answer the call. But this could also be psyops/lies/propaganda. Russia put a lot of effort into influencing opinion over the last two decades.
