Mhh some good ole whataboutism and lying.
Where's the lie? I agree there is some whataboutism, but in this case the hypocrisy of your position is so striking that it needs to be pointed out.
The comment you linked said they support the Netanyahu and thus Genocide in Gaza I'm not sure what you're even talking about.
The comment I linked to lists a bunch of your problematic comments about Putin and Ukraine, so I didn't have to repeat them here. But if you insist, here they are again:
Nobody is denying Israel's genocide, or the war criminal Netanyahu's culpability. What I am questioning is why you are only concerned about the genocide in Gaza, but when it comes to Russian war crimes, you are happy to make excuses for them. That's what I find disingenuous. All the excuses you make for Putin are the exact same sort of excuses people use to support Israel's genocidal actions. It's a double standard, and it demonstrates that your concern trolling on this topic is motivated more by anti-Western political propaganda than it is about genuine concern over war crimes.
wow you are denying civilian casualties in Gaza i see.
Nope. Where did I do that? The civilian casualties are horrific in both cases.
Where's more civilian casualties
Are you implying it's ok to make excuses for war criminals if the civilian casualties caused by one war crime are lower than during another war crime? Because it sounds like that's what you're suggesting. I mean, sure, I agree with you that Israel's war crimes have been *even worse *than Russia's. But I'm not the person defending one of these genocidal wars because the other one has more civilian casualties. What I am saying, supported by facts and evidence, is that that you seem to be ok with defending one of these war crimes while condemning the other. Someone who isn't politically partisan would be opposed to both.
I suggest you read the context of the posts you're quoting. Am I talking to an LLM?
