    but also cultural eradication for example by abducting and reeducating children

    Moving children away from a warzone and putting them in school.

    the suppression of cultural items like language (which Russia has done like forever, but especially since the beginning of the occupation in 2014)

    You have it reversed. Ukraine has been guilty of this, doing an ethnic cleansing in its Eastern regions since at least 2014 that includes a Ukrainization of ethnic Russians and the Russian language, with violent suppression and an indiscriminate shelling campaign from Ukronazis.

    If you walk through the sources in your Wikipedia post that you cited without even deigning to say what about it you found supportive, it gets even dumber.

    The first is from Euromaidan Press, a liberal Soros-funded rag that draws the same kinds of editorialized conclusions, such as that children using Russian language textbooks in an area, again, shelled out by UA Nazis is a bad thing. UA is their enemy, killing them, and the RF took this opportunity to have soft power via direct aid, i.e. providing teaching materials free of charge and, being the only source of supplies, creating a Russian market in the area. You'd have to have no understanding whatsoever of Euromaidan itself to think this is surprising let alone evidence of RF committing fucking genocide. These publications even wrote a number of articles on the anti-Russian ethnic cleansing going on, but since the RF invasion they've completely reversed course to try and pretend nothing they said actually happened lest you be less supportive of the Nazi shock troops. The link to the banning of Ukrainian language in Crimea does not work. The claim is simply false, Ukrainian is an official language of Crimea. There were sporadic and local attempts to ban it, with limited success.

    Anyways I was going to go through all of these but now I'm bored. I recommend that you acquire the habit of reading before sharing your opinions.

        That wasn't antisemitic lol. Not all mentions of Soros as a negative influence are antisemitic, he's a billionaire liberal that funds propaganda NGOs.

        It's like saying a think tank is funded by the Kochs.

        It's good to recognize antisemitism but unfortunately you have a very simplistic understanding.

        Anyways looking for the first excuse to run away seems to be your style.
