ignores Ukraine
welcome to Lemmy.ml
It's almost like Ukraine is not a house, nor is annexation settler colonialism.
Except Russia also did and is doing settler colonialism, inasmuch they have been moving Ukrainians out and Russians into Ukraine for the past century at least, as they did with other Soviet republics, as they are doing to neighbouring states, with the aim of eroding their national identity.
Just like they are doing now. The only marginal difference is that there are not enough Ukrainians to alter electoral balances, and Russia would be able to dissolve the population of Ukraine via forced relocations instead of just killing them all. Both are genocide by the way.
Is Russia trying to exterminate Ukrainian people in the annexed regions and replace them with Russian settlers?
Yes.
Definitely
Elaborate. You too @grue@lemmy.world Have there been mass deaths of civilians in Russian-occupied areas? Are they segregating the population or practicing apartheid based on ethnicity? Are they sterilizing Ukainians? Have marriages between Russians and Ukrainians been outlawed?
What kind of extermination campaign are they running? I'm not seeing it, besides relocating children out of the war zone. I suppose that could be argued as ethnic cleansing, but it can also be justified as protecting children from war so this alone isn't enough imo
It's not ethnic cleansing in your book, but who cares? It is according to the ICC, which is why there's an arrest warrant for Putin for ethnic cleansing.
In the past nights Russia fired thousands of rockets and drones at civilian targets. The only reason Ukraine doesn't entirely look like Gaza (and some parts do) is because of the population density and the air defense systems.
As an example, they are declaring the homes of war refugees abandoned, and are giving it to Russians, specifically excluding Ukrainians.
Oh fuck off you fucking brainwashed moron.
