Biden appeared to accuse Putin of committing a ‘genocide’ in Ukraine : NPR

April 12, 2022

“Your family budget, your ability to fill up your tank, none of it should hinge on whether a dictator declares war and commits genocide a half a world away,” he said.

Asked later what made him use the word “genocide,” Biden replied, "Yes, I called it genocide. It has become clearer and clearer that Putin is just trying to wipe out the idea of even being — being able to be Ukrainian.

    Complete drivel devoid of any semblance of meaning. And the way you’ve responded to everything is absurd. If your point was to troll “tankies,” it’s pretty fucked up to do this on a post pointing out a genocide perpetrated by the U.S. and Biden. This was implicit, but even when made explicit you sunk back into your self-satisfactory smugness. You are a sad worthless person who serves zero purpose.

        Nothing absurd about pointing out the US administration’s active participation in a genocide. “The other option is just as bad because (inexplicably) China might steal the place recognized by the US and UN as part of China.” Yeah KYS

          Fck hamas & IDF… This ain’t no joke and there is a bit of nuance. But I congratulate you for standing up for the conclusions you have drawn.

          I and many others are still very confused about the whole situation. Maybe try putting more context, sources and explanations to Bring your enlightenment to the plebs on lemmIE

      Who thought you to take things to a personal level, I mean who told you someone on the interwebs would actually care what a 14yo neckbeard thinks are profound insults?

      Dude I know I’m worthless. I meditate so much to reach purposelessness. Thanks for the recon.
