You are generalizing giant group of People based on their nation and origin but I'm the nazi one
It's repulsive, Russia already had some 600,000 orphans, most of whom are social orphans, they have living parents but have been abandoned.  Many of them have disabilities, doctors in Russia encourage the abandonment of disabled children.  Russian adopters of Russian children were getting next to no support and the rates of people adopting and then abandoning again were apalling. Although they are entitled to state housing on coming of age only 15% recieve it, so many, 192,000, go directly from state care to homelessness.
These Ukrainian children may be in orphanges but they often have families or parents who have some form of contact, who would take them if they only had the money or time or space.
It's against the law for Russians to adopt foreign children but this was eased in May specifically for Ukraine, it was also made harder for the Ukrainian families of these children to get them back.  There's a register matching Russians to Ukrainian children, a hotline to pair them up, summer camps to teach them 'patrotic values' and the Russian families get up to 1,000 euros per Ukrainian that gets Russian citizenship. >

Thank you for this info. For the sake of completion, could you drop some sources? Especially about the register, hot line and the 1k EUR? >

just curious, is russia showing the same footage and then saying they are rescuing children from Ukraine? >

They found torture rooms specifically for children... guess that is where the 'saving' happens. Fuck Russia. If nuclear weapons didn't exist, I would be clamoring for my country to bomb whatever place Putin lives in. >

well ok. I do like to be informed but that's a bit much. F this war, fuck Putin and his pedophile soldiers >


but that's a bit much.

It is reality. Lets not try and hide from it. Lets talk about it and bring its awareness to everyone. Never stick your head in the sand to the realities of war if you dont want to try and progress past this bullshit. >

The family I know personally were stopped at Russian checkpost/ambush at Zhytomyr area on early weeks of war, around March. 2 young girls, and 2 parents. They were trying to evacuate themselves to Lviv area with their personal vehicle. Russians killed 7yo girl and her father, let mom and 12yo girl go… sad part I know too many stories like this. At least 500 kids were killed in this terrorist invasion already. Help Ukraine to defend please!
source: i’m ukrainian and I knew that family, story came from my relatives. >

I was evacuating my mother and her sister's kids  through Zhytomyr area, when i came to Lviv i have read news and found that bridge near Zhytomyr we were crossing has been destroyed with russian rocket killing the family in a car similar to mine, just another color... >

The time to stop this is yesterday... >

But Hunter Biden's laptop and Hillary's emails. >

I genuinely almost missed the /s because this seems to be a real sentiment from some people. >

Sarcasm died of covid 2 years ago. >

And its cousin, Satire, has been wearing it like a skinsuit and has become disturbingly indistinguishable from lived reality. >

Russian state sponsored genocide on display for the world to see and we still have way too many Putin apologists out there. >

But he's so cunning - just wait for his grand plan to fall into place!!!!
/s >

This is how the musk fanboys see the twitter debacle. >

At this point it wouldn't surprise me if many of the Musk "fanboys" on Twitter are on the GRU payroll. Remember the "peace plan" Musk came out with after allegedly talking to Putin? >

Donnie/ musk/ putin fan boys are all the same people,  if they are getting paid or not. >

It’s really pathetic.  What are they getting out of it besides humiliation? >

This is genocide. >

I don’t even have a word anymore for these sick depraved fucks. How do you possibly live with yourself while knowing you were scouring around an orphanage looking for kids to kidnap and put through hell in the hopes of using them for cannon fodder? Like really how do they not delete themselves from existence after knowing that’s something they’ve done? How do they not become physically ill for even thinking about doing such an absolutely despicable thing? >

Too bad there wasn't a guy on the HIMARS button with access to the CCTV. 
Evacuate any kids that might remain, "leak" that there are kids there, and kill those ghouls. >

Russia it’s guilty of genocide in Ukraine. Putin is guilty of systematic extermination of minorities in Russia. It’s time the world retires his regime. >

Can't we identify them if they're on camera and file war crimes charges >

Russia's secret police, the monsters of the FSB (Fascist Security Bureau) is committing war crimes in violation of the UN Genocide Convention.

Article II
In the present Convention, genocide means any of the following acts committed with
intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as
such:
(a) Killing members of the group;
(b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;
(c) Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its
physical destruction in whole or in part;
(d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
(e) Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group. >

Check. Check. Check. Check. Aaaaaaaand Check. Congratulations, Russia. Here is your award for maximum shittiness. >

It's horrifying that American corrupt conservatives align with Russia and loudly yell propaganda which supports Putin. Completely unfit for leadership. >

It's truly ridiculous. I'm more fiscally conservative and a Christian, but I can't... I just can't in any way support the nonsense coming out of much of the Republican party these days. It's as if there simply can't be something that everyone agrees on. Democrats could come out with a party platform that says, "we fully believe that water is wet."... then Republicans would find a way to argue against that.
Putin is evil. Full stop.
Get your heads out of your asses. >

What does “fiscally conservative” mean? >

Well, I hope it means what I meant! Lol
Basically, I was trying to convey that on fiscal or financial matters, I tend to favor more conservative policies. Conservatives are generally considered Republicans and liberals are generally considered Democrats. (Here in the US) 
I also added the Christian part because a huge fan base of the Republican party is Christian.
So I was trying to draw attention to the fact that someone who should be a shoo-in for voting Republican is actually far from it because of their shenanigans... like not supporting Ukraine for whatever reason, ignoring the piles of evidence like this video, and pretending that Putin isn't so bad >

Right but what “conservative policies” which ones? >

Well, I suppose, as an example, our national debt is a good one. We can't spend more than we bring in forever. So I'm in favor of things like cutting spending. I'm also aware it's not as simple as saying "cut spending by X amount" but it's still something that I think should be talked about more and taken seriously. Especially since it's our kids that are going to inherit this.
By all means, feel free to ask more specific questions, but "what policies" is a bit open ended, unless you really want to get into the nitty gritty of Colorado's recent laws. I'm just not sure that's very relevant to you lol >

So how do you feel about when the GOP cut taxes for the rich and did nothing to correct for the loss in revenue?  Instead of cutting essential programs that people rely on, why not increase taxes on those that can afford it and balance the budget that way?
That is essentially what the “liberal” argument boils down to, which sounds far more fiscally conservative to me than cutting revenue and then blaming the other side for ballooning the deficit because they don’t want to take essential programs away.  The GOP aren’t in any way fiscally conservative, they are simply using that idea as a weapon against their political opponents while acting as a de facto political wing of corporate America and the 1% with no regard for the welfare of the people of this nation whatsoever. >

Yeah, another post mentioned the GOP as not being very fiscally responsible, and I'm inclined to agree. I was frustrated enough during one of the Republican primaries (I think it was 2008? Maybe 2012) where a question was asked about a plan that was 10 to 1 spending cuts for tax increases and would they vote for it. So, for every dollar of tax increase, $10 of spending cuts. Not a single candidate was in favor. I'm screaming in my head thinking "are you serious?? You wouldn't even entertain the idea??!!"
Maybe I should just face the fact that I've not been a Republican for a while now. The more I think about it, the more I realize I haven't been aligned with them for a bit. >

Russia is a criminal enterprise >

Apropos of nothing: the Nazis did the same thing when they invaded Eastern Europe. >

Some pretty unpleasant parallels with the creation of the Dirlewanger Brigade also, I notice. >

Must be hard for a Russian to be proud of their country these days. And for a long time into the future. >

But they believe the propaganda that the Russians are liberating them from Nazism. They will support it. 10s of thousands of Ukrainians, including many children, have been kidnapped and sent to Russia to be assimilated into that culture, which is genocide. But Russians, sadly, believe what they are told, that this is Russia helping Ukrainians. >

Stop. We don't. We don't believe this. Most of us don't, especially after the mobilization. There is not much we can do when 98% of the money belong to oligarchy and Putin himself >

Well, since you ARE from Russia I'm assuming and have been living and talking with ACTUAL citizens and not reddit articles, I'm guessing you know better >

Luckily I'm not from that cursed shithole. 
Really mysterious how the war can go on for so long, how hundreds of thousands Russians can get mobilized, etc when "most of you" are against it. Like I said. Russians don't care.  
Russians on the internet are constantly switching between "Well, everyone is against it!" and "People are pro war, but only because of propaganda ok!".
Basically acting like Germans in WW2 with all their "We didn't know" bullshit.
