Russia is known to use spotters to confirm military targets before striking in civilian areas: https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/6/29/ukraine-says-suspect-directed-russia-missile-attack-on-restaurant

That’s why Russia has disproportionately fewer civilian casualties relative to military ones.

The ICC is toothless.

I mean, sounds like your most advanced exposure to statistics was “this is a joint probability”

Take a more advanced stats course. It’s really insightful and will open your mind.

Yes, because a targeted strike at clearly marked journalists on foreign soil is basically a stray bullet anyway.

Tell me you don’t have a degree without telling me you don’t have a degree

Have you looked at what’s considered a valid “source” on Wikipedia?

The fact that there’s an odd good article does not make the site a reliable source of anything.

The casualty ratios are way off. Try again.

My modlog hasn’t banned anyone lmao go bark up another tree

Numbers don’t lie.

Neither Ukraine nor Russia come even close to as bloodthirsty for civilian lives as Israel. Israel is killing civilians and killing Hamas fighters as collateral damage. Ukraine and Russia are killing each other’s soldiers and killing civilians as collateral damage. They’re not the same.

Israel is worse than Russia. Russia, in contrast, looks downright reasonable.

In a few weeks, Israel has killed almost as many civilians as those that have died on both sides over the course of almost two years of the Russia-Ukraine war.

It’s also just often completely inaccurate. The standards it uses to cite works make them pretty much useless: any good information on Wikipedia is on there by accident.

Saudi Arabia doesn’t have the power to dick around with human rights halfway across the globe.

Given that Hamas launched this attack on a Saturday during Shabbat… sure looks like they were targeting schoolchildren at the school, eh?

Mhmm a top secret attack on a school…

On a Saturday? During Shabbat?

I too enjoy reading Western media instead of experiencing things first-hand.

You do realize that Tibetan independence was never recognized by any country, right? Not even the British.

Do you understand Tibetan history up to that point? At least it’s no longer a serfdom system (which Tibetan advocates will say was equal because of the one-in-a-million chance that one of the peasants can become the Dalai Lama and that everyone was totally happy because everyone was working towards bettering Buddhism). How many Tibetan refugees do you know who experienced serfdom?

Why would Ford care when it can just petition the US government to block the sale of Chinese cars? It’s the same thing Boeing did to block Bombardier sales in the US.

If you feel like giving China a domestic supply of O&G so they can switch their coal plants to gas ones, be my guest.

That’s been the single greatest contributor to reduced emissions in North America and Europe over the past few decades.

Tell me you haven’t read the Communist Manifesto without telling me you haven’t read the Communist Manifesto.
