I dont think this is a wise way to think.

You can say the same thing about HAMAS and Israelis? Like would you support if Israeli started now raping women, not bombing after saying to evacuate Gaza, but literally killing them with guns on the point, children, defendless people, innocent ones who had done nothing, torture them. Would you still support Israelis if they were starting to do that?

Morality is not a reverse competition, like lol. It’s not about “Oh, you used a Nuclear bomb? I use a nuclear bomb, we all use a nuclear bomb”. Morality is about stopping this whole sht. Israelis are trying to neutralize HAMAS and their supporters, and obviously HAMAS told their supporters to stay at homes at Gaza and Gaza is the one that voted or supported HAMAS for more than a decade. So, their supporters are now at Gaza whether they want or not Im sorry but they’ll die, because they simply seem to support Raping women, killing innocent children, attacking from nowhere a country, undressing a woman and placing her on a tree and cheering. Like these are attrocities who none should commit. It’s NOT a fucking competition. And unfortunately, as war is hell and always chaotic, unfortunately innocent people who never supported such things are the minority and some may die too. Unfortunately. But the majority of Gaza is the one that supported the HAMAS being their “government”. Nobody seemed to complain, like we would do at Europe for Macron, Trump, or any president that did something bad.

If you support such atrocities, Im sorry but I dont think you belong to a peaceful humanity. You should either be placed in jail, or in a war … die so we don’t have people that support such atrocities anymore.

Same with Ukraine and Russian war. Just because Phorphorus was used on the one side, does not mean that you’ve got the moral high ground of using phosphorus too. It is not … a competition. End of story.

It’s about neutralizing the target that used Phorphorus in the first place, not about using it against them. It’s about neutralizing the target that raped your families, your women, killed your children, supports an organization that does commit such attrocities. Not about doing the same to them.

Peace by neutralizing a target is the end goal, not catastrophy of both countries and competing at who will commit more war crimes.

Yes from the government, not the people. People and Independents polled for this (55%) [source](https://edition.cnn.com/2023/08/04/politics/cnn-poll-ukraine/index.html#:~:text=Overall%2C 55%25 say the US,say it should do more.]

Independents mostly say the US has done enough to help Ukraine (56%) and that they oppose additional funding (55%).

A majority, but not all (68%) of those who say the US should do more to support Ukraine favor additional funding, as do 23% of those who say the US has already done enough.

And many people oppose helping Ukraine, when these warcrimes are happening inside Europe and thousands of innocent people die and civilian infrastructure is destroyed for nothing and people being terrorized, for the sake of a stupid Russia’s war.

It’s such a shame to see that people have such ignorance to what’s happening in the world while they live and prosper in peaceful places without war. People that have been building their villages, cities, towns, homes, for decades, now have nothing. Not even clothes or water. We’re talking about civilians, who are being bombed, inside Europe. And some Americans still believe “US has done enough”.

This is by principle war criminality, and should be opposed till the last stand. Till Russia is held accountable for its massive crimes against the world.

How can we make the rest of the world hate us even more?

To be honest, if I was Putin, I would have killed myself at that point. He has no reason to exist for the future. Just pure suffering and humiliation.

But somehow ofc he will turn this into a “it’s NATO’s fault” or another narrative to turn the hate elsewhere for average ZRussian copium

Switzerland has been well known for its neutrality, even in wars regardless, regardless of ethics in war they were neutral. I dont know what your hopes were based on, with all the respect:)

It’s like the only country that is really known for its strictness on its neutrality, despite being in the middle of Europe. Honestly with all the respect, I don’t know honestly why people are surprised for not giving weapons.

They barely have any soldiers even.

It would be more rational to be surprised if the opposite happened.

They kinda did the same with Nazis, and Nazis were worse, and much much more successful. Now is the time that you hate them?

War is hell. But remember, all these people were sent to kill innocent people. I dont care about “why”. The ends doesnt justify the means.

They were sent to kill innocent people. You can kill yourself and save a ton of innocent lives by not placing mines all over the place. Kids even.

You can bribe your commander.

You can run before all this happens. By the time you suspect they’re going to call you even. Tons of Russians have already done that.

You can revolute against your own government. Yes, going to prison, is FUCKING BETTER than killing innocent lives and children or supporting a war where people have been raping women.

Like jesus. The copium of trying to support these soldiers that were sent to kill other innocent people who have done NOTHING to them, is amazingly high.

Guys and girls. these people are there to kill people, kids, civilians. Not play on the playground. War is hell. And if you’re on the wrong side of war, you deserve no mercy until you’re immobilized. Maybe treatment, maybe being human to them. But once you’re active and ready to kill and support this war, you can fuck off back to Russia or the other world.

But not all these soldiers are war criminals

They literally are war criminals. They’re participating in an invasion for no cause other than boosting Putin’s ego.

And I’ve seen the propaganda advertisments in Russia “Go to war, support your country” and “Go to war, gives good money, support your family” and such.

Invading another country without cause makes you literally a war criminal. It is really … that simple. Russia is literally a terrorist state at that moment. They’ve killed hundreds of civilians, thousands of Ukrainian fighters as well. Putting mines all over the place. Crippling and injuring so many other fighters and civilians as well. Sent terrorist groups.

If you’re participating in such war, you are a war criminal. You can kill yourself. you can abandon your unit. You can bribe your commanders. You can run away before all this even starts. But by the moment you’re invading another country and you’re killing innocent people who have done NOTHING to you, you’re a war criminal. It is really … that simple. Coz it’s “either I save myself or I kill these innocent people”. That’s a war criminal mindset coz it makes it seem as if you’re a good guy in your mind. When you’re not.

They’re not all dead. They’re casualties, but not dead necessarily. 100-200k are. still a huge number though. Plus many of them have huge injuries, some dont have arms, some are blind … devastating.

Shadow units are really accurate. Haven’t you seen the whole at the bridge? They are so accurate they can point exactly at the middle of the road if they want to and it will hit precisely that.

I didn’t say THE majority. You continue to change my words. I said A majority. There can be multiple majorities in a community in relation to something else. And in the business world when you say 1/3 of shares is owned by X entity, that IS a majority. Because the rest is most likely 1 million other people/entities with no power, some are VC, some are CEO, some are other seeders.

I understand you may not know much about the business world. It’s not bad not knowing things. And stop insulting people for not knowing something. Shaming people for lack of knowledge is just such a loser mentality. It’s like sucking your own cock.

And at last you answered without direct insults, but you still gave me a “you have a little grasp of business economics and maths” which is ironical.

1/3 is a big portion to own from a company. I’m in the business world, I’m also been a trader for years now, we also do discussions on our company’s surge meetings about IPOs and I have friends who’ve been bank CEOs or still are. Believe me. 1/3 is a big portion to own from a company. You own

1/3 of the decisions in a sense that the company does. You have huge voting power and rights. Stop pretending to be blind for the sake of proving yourself right.

Tencent has only funded 158 million […] that’s only 1/3 of the shares

and that’s not a majority of the shares? Are you stupid or you’re pretending to be?

Because so far you’ve only insulted me but now it’s time for me to insult you. You firstly clearly don’t know how to make a discussion work without insulting your counterparty, and secondly don’t know in english the difference between “THE majority” and “A majority”.

You talk like a classic 9gagger who only knows how to talk with insults and misinformation and with pure arrogance. 1/3 is a majority of the shares. That’s how it works in business. 1/3 is a big number to take big decisions and make vetos and be on the table.

I don’t unfortunately, I would even have done it by hand despite that I’m a developer and could have made a bot myself. Point is, if I knew about it I would be so furious that I would have no problem doing it by hand. Fuck spez.

Tencent owns a majority of the shares. If you want to dispute me, at least throw a source … it’s a well known fact in the business community.

I dont know what you say, I transitioned to Lemmy 100% and deleted my acc at reddit.

The only super annoying thing is that they get to keep the cake whole and the dog full (my comments by deleting my name and my acc deleted). Which I despite them for that even more now and just make me avoid the platform even more and dis-advertise it.

I would be fully happy if I had my account, changed my comments first to “fuck /u/spez” and then had deleted my account, but I only knew so much. I was naive enough to think they would delete my comments too, since they’re My Intellectual Property. Right? They came from my own mind, I took the time to write them, and I deleted them! But no! We will keep them, just delete your name.

And when you google my reddit username, you still get from the google’s cache directed to threads with my deleted comments. Fuck you spez. Fuck you.

Time will tell if reddit won. It’s not a short-term fight. I deleted my discord a Chinese Tencent’s vessel and a product that makes no money but burns money for the sake of gathering data. My Instagram, my Meta account thus my FB too, my WhatsApp, every app that was there just to gather my data or exploit me now or in the future.

I do everything to keep off being fingerprinted. I use platforms that use more and more end-to-end encryption like Matrix. Or at worst Telegram which is not end to end but the best of the worst since my relatives still use it.

Just because you don’t see it yet, doesn’t mean that a movement against anti-consumer platforms like reddit don’t exist. I inform my mom about it, I inform my relatives and friends about it. I move friends and friends move me to safer for the future to use platforms and de-centralized.

A battle may be short, but the war is long.

Reddit is the reason I learned about lemmy. But the rest seems really informational

At least he died instantly.

Where exactly tell me did you see the Ukrainian flag? lol

Basically commander or whatever rank he is complaining about these two drunk soldiers and bringing alcoholics at war and that they’re already dead in his eyes and whoever wants to hurt his family he will kill them (for saying the truth probably).

Source: I’m half Ukrainian I know both languages more or less but I’m not 100% proficient. I may miss a detail or two but the mainline is that

These conscripts if they try to surrender, can and have been executed by professional soldiers on the back line. Also they risk getting killed anyway trying to surrender to Ukrainian troops. It’s not as simple as you make it seem.

“These conscripts get killed if they try to surrender” what a stupid excuse.

So lets go commit war crimes. Yes? Kill innocent people, rape people, throw missiles on innocent people. Yes? That’s the way!
