    Projection. It’s not Russia that has passed anti-Ukrainian laws, it’s Ukraine that has passed anti-Russian laws.

    And pro tip: adding “as a Ukrainian” doesn’t help bolster your argument even if true since there are Ukrainians/former Ukrainian citizens fighting on both sides of this civil war, and the people in Donetsk and Lugansk (who are allegedly part of Ukraine according to Kiev and the West and who have been bombed for the last nine years by the Kiev regime) can also say that the other side has been literally trying to commit a genocide against them.

    However it is very unlikely that the claim that you are Ukrainian is true, unless you are one of the ones living outside of Ukraine (in which case you are getting your information second hand just like the rest of us so being Ukrainian gives you no additional credibility), since in Kiev controlled Ukraine you get picked up by the SBU for being on any site that is perceived as even remotely pro-Russian (which we are in fact not, we are actually more pro-Ukraine than all those who are cheering Ukraine on to continue down the self-destructive path it is currently on). Odds are that when someone leads with “as a Ukrainian” in an online argument that is just the liberal version of the beloved online cracker phrase “as a black man”.
