    Ukraine has been more honorable in their defensive war with Russia than most other conflicts. Is the country perfect, no. Is it being a lot more humane and professional in their conduct than say, Russia, Hamas, Israel and Iran, absolutely.

    I am going to assume you are not a native english speaker. So please read carefully.

    You are assuming that anyone striving to be objective is being “both-sidesims”. In order to meet that definition, you need to be using the actions of the one party, to defend the actions of the other. I have not done that. That’s called being an apologist.

    Regarding the racist allegations. Please count the number of times I criticized a “white” (your definition not mine) power in this thread with you.

      Lol. Turns out you do indeed reserve the “both sides bad” nonsense for non-whites.

        Now you are trolling.

        Nazi Germany is not white enough for you? Britain is non white enough for you? Usa is non white enough for you?

        Pray tell, who is white enough for you?

          Just noting how you were willing to both-sides Apartheid South Africa, the Palestinian genocide, and the US Civil War, but for some reason you changed your tune completely when it came to Ukraine.

            Maybe it’s because the conflict is different.

            It has more in common with germany invading poland, than Israel invading Gaza.

                So being critical of the USA, Britain, Russia, Confederate America and Germany is irrelevant, but because I am also critical of middle eastern powers, now I am the racist.

                I think your victim complex or virtue signaling is racist.

                  Notice how it was all “conflicts are rarely one sided, if ever”, and “just because one side is bad, does not make the other side good”, right up until the victims were white, then suddenly it was “different”.
