    @YeetPics @LaFinlandia Disagree totally. He’s the #1 cause, yes, but he is not the only one. He could not do this without help, and he’s had plenty. He’s enlisted people from Bulgaria, Turkey, and other countries who specialize in atrocities and torture. He’s allowed violent criminals out of prisons to go to war. He has help. They need to pay for their crimes, too. #WarCrimes #PutinWarCriminal #RussiaUkraineWar #RussianInvasion

      Is it equally as valid to hate Chinese people because of the atrocities that occurred under Xi?

      Something tells me that hating an ethnic group because their government leadership feeds them half truths is throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

      Then again half the political discussions I’ve seen on Lemmy end with calling to nuke entire hemispheres of the planet, maybe this level of nuance doesn’t fit here lmao.
