      I accidentally commented on a lib instance and was told by lemmy users that Russia is doing a genocide in Ukraine just like Israel is in Palestine and I finally realized they literally live in a post-fact alternate world.

      Gaza is 144 square miles and 100k+ civilians were killed but Eastern Ukraine is 16000 square miles and 10k civilians were (unfortunately for sure) killed.

      The Palestinians are a group of people that only exist in Palestine with a distinct culture from Egypt and Jordan and are being wiped off the face of earth. The people who died in the Russia/Ukraine war are mostly Russian speaking Russians. This is not the same. The Gaza genocide is a literal order of magnitude greater. The facts don’t matter to them at all just the insistence of American innocence and their “rules based order”.

        Always But Russia, But China, But Hamas. Everything is genocide except for actual genocide, which is fine
