    I’m sure the relatives of the innocent civilian victims will agree with you and thank Putin for bombing them.

      I’m sure the relatives of the 14,000 people killed by Ukranian nazis before Russia entered the war would love to hear your justifications for it.

      Russia doesn’t bomb civilians unlike ukraine.
      And it saved a lot of innocent civilian victims from being ethnic cleansed.
      As they had been trying to do since the 2014 coup.
      But again the same double standards, the west didn’t really care about what their proxy nazi’s did to them.

          These things happen in war unfortunately.
          When there are attacks with 500+ of drones and many missiles per day with only a handful of civilian casualties it’s pretty clear that they are not ‘targeting civilians and wanting to make as many casualties as possible’ as the western propaganda claim.
          Unlike ukrainians that deliberately target civilian infrastructure, from schools to hospitals.

            I don’t think the main target is civilians, I think they have better targets (strategically speaking), you are right in this

            The comment @TDSOJohn@lemmy.world was replying was about “doing them a favor”. I don’t think any sane Ukrainian would say “thanks” for what Russia is doing.

            Unlike ukrainians that deliberately target civilian infrastructure, from schools to hospitals.

            It’s a bit of a stretch. Both sides did similar things.

                  As I said, the vast number of drones/missiles vs the few civilian casualties they make.
                  While ukros often bomb schools,hospitals and high rise buildings.
                  But the western media doesn’t report that.
                  Only last week they killed 21 kids in a student dormitory.
                  And all the news here was crying about the reaction strikes from Russia the next day.

                    Civilian houses in Ukraine are hit every day. Here is a house in Konop from today, for example:

                    The strike on the student dormitory sucks, but do you think Ukraine hasn’t gone through things like this? Here is a house in Dnipro from June 2 (15 deaths) for example:

                    What makes you think that Ukraine does that on purpose, and Russia by accident?

          I’ve been under the impression it’s sort of a “tankie” place that glorifies enemies of the USA indiscriminately. So saying bad things about Putin will get you downvoted

            There are a lot of communists here. We don’t “glorify enemies of the USA indiscriminately,” but we do oppose western framing and propaganda. There are plenty of valid reasons to be critical of Putin.
