    When did the libs start calling this a genocidal war exactly? Is it like recently or have I just been ignoring them

      It started pretty early into the war after Ukraine accused Russia of massacring civilians. They also willfully misinterpret Russian propaganda, which questions the legitimacy of the Ukrainian state, as a genocidal threat. There’s also the thing about orphans in Russian occupied areas getting adopted by Russians.
