Are you asking about the Ukranians civilians killed by Russia or something else?

[–] harcesz@szmer.info -1 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Ukrainian, or really all, civilians killed in the conflict instigated by Russia.

instigated by Russia

Know how I know you weren't paying attention?

Oh, you got any arguments not used by USA to justify Iran, Irak, Venezuela and soon Kuba invasions? Im really fascinated by how you belive this is any different.

Lol covering your ass ahead of time because you presumably know about the 8 years of ethnic cleansing by us-backed nazis, but think that you can both-sides it if you pretend that documented reality is the same thing as whole cloth propaganda. Truth is the difference. The US lies about bad things happening to justify aggression against a rival, and the US also does bad things and lies about them not happening to justify aggression against a rival. The common denominator here is American imperial lies, and the fools who keep swallowing them.

Here's a CNN segment from 2015, before mentioning the slaughter of eastern ukranians by their own government became politically inconvenient for the west:

A choice quote since I know your ass isn't going to watch it:

We are Ukranian, but they kill us. So we probably need our own country. Because these people in Kiev, they are not brothers to us.
