    “Not-genocide is when you send military units with kill-lists of Ukrainian civilian activists and intelligentsia and say you’ve kidnapped a million Ukrainian children from occupied territories like it’s something to be proud of.”

    As stupid as that ban is, I wouldn’t really see what’s happening in Ukraine as a genocide, it’s moreso a geopolitical/territorial landgrav, unlike what’s happening in Palestine. Although it’s stupider to say that Ukraine is under genocide as genocide denialism

      There were probably more civilians killed in Gaza compared to Ukraine, but the total number of people killed appears to exceed that in Gaza. Many people displaced as well. And Russia has a lengthy record of trying to destroy the Ukrainian culture.
