    The simplest fact of the Ukrainian invasion is that it is, well, an invasion- and people are dying and a nation is losing its self-evidently valuable sovereignty.

    How many people died in the Donbas between 2014 and 2022 before the SMO started?

        Nah bro, fuck you.

        You’re concerned about people dying and losing their sovereignty, but only when it’s people you care about.

        “Whataboutism” means fuck all when you’re trying to duck the literal context of the events at hand.

        “Whatabout” you be intellectually honest for once.
