Korea, Iraq, Afghanistan?

Chapter VII of the UN Charter, I.E. internationally agreed upon law by UN signatories, which Russia as a sitting member of the security council should be obliged to obey, states use of force against another country, especially other members of the UN is prohibited except in cases of self-defense or by authorization of UN Council.

So no, every invasion is not inherently illegal. That’s only explicitly true when you talk about Russia, because like every authoritarian power they only care about rules when they benefit them.

Well Putin, if you don’t want a war with NATO, you could always do the responsible thing and get the fuck out of Ukraine and stop launching illegal invasions of your neighbors.

Russian Asset. Better dead than Red.

The fact that Russia was ever on the winning side given their history was a fluke.

Would you rather encourage Chinese aggression and show them your country can be bullied around?

Stop insisting people have the right to torture animals.

Edit: Seems lemmy is worse at context than reddit ever was.

Feeding cats and other obligate carnivores a vegan diet is torture the same way feeding humans a sawdust only diet would be.

“Just following orders” is not an excuse no matter how it’s veiled.

She took part in a violent insurrection with the ultimate goal of overturning an election and destroying democracy.

She had every opportunity to no being a cesspool of bigotry, racism and fascist supporter. Instead she chose at every option to continue her path.

Yeah this ain’t relatable at all. The only time ever spent a night in a hotel with a family member was when my dad chaperoned a school trip.

Kremlin not owning up responsibility they started a war of aggression against their neighbor because they were worried said neighbor would cozy up to the west and elevate themselves out of this post-soviet dark age. If a world war does kick off because Russo-Ukrainian War conflict, the history books will record it’s start date of 27 Feb 14, when Russian invaded Crimea after the Maidan Revolution went sharply against Russian interests.

Slava Ukrani!

She’s an only fans thot, this is just advertising to her simps

Transporting organs doesn’t happen on Private Jets, helicopters and courier craft typically do the job. It’s also now well within the possibility for medium sized drones to be able to rapdily move something the size of an organ container reliably long distance, faster and more efficient than a jet can load, fuel, taxi, land and unload.

Private Jets are just luxury items of the rich, and are the carbon equivalent of burning down small forests or power a small town with coal burning. There is nothing they do that can’t be done more efficiently by a drone or helicopter for a fraction of the emissions.

DIG THE FUCKING HOLE!!

Oh please let this happen, the alt right fleeing to Russia thinking they’ll have better lives only to get shoved into a shitty overcrowded apartment or forced to work on a farm with 19th century farming technology would be the funniest fucking thing.

Can’t watch it or Disney might kill my family.

How are there more bronze medals than silver, and more gold medals than silver?

What the hell are you putting on pizza that a burnt piece of bread is the healthiest part?

Western elites do steal, true. But to no where near the same extent. We’d have trillionaires in the west if they stole as much as Russian oligarchs do.

Russians have been brainwashed for centuries by their elites to thinking corruption is the natural order of things.

They can’t believe that western nations can have shows of wealth and quality of life standards they do, because that means the way they and their ancestors have lived for decades isn’t how people are supposed to live.

Their elites steal everything, ensure education standards are low as possible so their workers can just barely manage to operate in a factory, on a farm or in a mine, and then encourage them to stay drunk as possible during their waking hours.

And then they wonder why Russians who manage to emigrate west never go home and sooner or later cut all contact with their backwards motherland.

Frankly if it hadn’t been for the advent of Nuclear Weapons, and Soviets stealing designs for them from America, Russia never would have been a Superpower at all and probably collapse in on itself in the 60s.
