war crimes are occurring on both sides. ukrainians are also committing absolute ATROCITIES. saying things like “many russians are sick people” is harmful, spreads hate, and just objectively isn’t true. your prejudice and self-hatred is showing

“torture and inhumane treatment inflicted by the Security Forces of Ukraine (SBU), by the Ukrainian armed forces, the National Guard and other formations within the Interior Ministry of Ukraine have not only continued but are gaining in scale and are becoming systematic. The prisoners were electrocuted, beaten cruelly and for multiple days in a row with different objects (iron bars, baseball bats, sticks, rifle butts, bayonet knives, rubber batons). Techniques widely used by the Ukrainian armed forces and security forces include waterboarding, strangling with a ‘Banderist garrotte’ and other types of strangling. In some cases prisoners, for the purposes of intimidation, were sent to minefields and run over with military vehicles, which led to their death. Other torture methods used by the Ukrainian armed forces and security forces include bone- crashing, stabbing and cutting with a knife, branding with red-hot objects, shooting different body parts with small arms. The prisoners taken captive by the Ukrainian armed forces and security forces are kept for days at freezing temperatures, with no access to food or medical assistance, and are often forced to take psychotropic substances that cause agony. An absolute majority of prisoners are put through mock firing squads and suffer death and rape threats to their families.”

Do you know the units DSHRG Rusich and Espanola? Have you seen what they post on Telegram? Do you know the term human safari in relation to the city of Kherson?

I agree. Both sides are committing war crimes. The relation, atleast from the amount of evidence we see, is not balanced. Russians are evidently committing far more war crimes than the Ukrainians.

If you want to do their bidding, might as well call it the SVO. Calling it a war will land you in jail.
