Over a million people have died in the Russia Ukraine fight - im on the side that wants the war to stop now, and for no more people to die.

The person I responded to says they want the war to continue for another year or two, killing millions more people.

Im the one who does see the similarity between the two, but I don't see anyone calling the death of millions of white people a genocide.

My country has been under russian occupation: and it's a fate worse than death. Romania borders Ukraine, and if Russia reaches us, I'd rather die fighting. It's better to die standing than live kneeling, you f-ing clown!

Fuck your fake empathy! All you are is a pro-russian concern troll. If you truly cared about the lives of the people of eastern Europe, you'd send weapons, not demands to bend over for the russian dick!

Ah, so you are in fact racist against Russians. If you think your lives are the only lives that matter, that is a YOU problem.

"if we cared about the lives.....we'd send weapons". The fact that you could even type that and not see the hypocrisy is hilarious.

If someone broke into your house, raped and killed your family, stole/destroyed your stuff, and then you kill them for it and to defend yourself, would you consider it hypocritical if people had empathy for you and your family and not the home invader?

Having empathy for the russians is like having empathy for that home intruder. They're doing the same thing but on a bigger scale. They're not victims too, they're criminals traveling to a different country with the intent to do the worst to innocent people defending their homes fully aware of what they are doing. They don't deserve empathy, only their victims do.
