      I wasn’t saying Russia is good. I was being cynical about the general disregard for the laws of war in all the major conflicts going on right now.

        So, glorified whataboutism? This is about Russian war crimes, not Israel’s.

          I was connecting the main conflicts going on right now under a unified banner of “War crimes are happening.” Like, whether it’s Ukraine, Gaza, the Horn of Africa, Myanmar, or whatever one you have the capacity to follow, shit’s pretty vile.

          So, rather than using whataboutism to excuse Russia, I was more saying “These things are all barbarous, illegal, and similar.” The world never had a perfect way to confront atrocities but confront them we must or it’ll only get worse.
