The difference is information manipulation, like misinformation.

While there should be a complete sanction of Russian products, cod is cod, it's a consumable that has to follow public health standards.

There's no such thing for information, and for many years the Russian state has been trying hard at it.

Yes, because that never happens in America. Only Russia does that. No one else.

Well the last time the US committed genocide of a culture was way before any tech company was founded, while Russia is doing it since 2022 - by their own admission.

If we count of course the illegal annexation of territory, one of the most egregious crimes against sovereignty, it's been doing it since the occupation of Moldova, Georgia, Ukraine in 2014, you get the idea.

What I don't understand is why you're trying to divert the attention to the US, the topic regarding the current crimes against humanity and war crimes of Russia have enough merits to be a topic on its own.

I think you need to research US foreign policy. They are literally trying to do that with Iran. They helped Israel do it to the Palestinians. Not to take away from the Ukraine atrocities but US is just as bad as Russia.

> "not trying to take away from Ukraine atrocities but making an effort to try to take away from Ukraine atrocities"

Right.

What a strawman

[libertine]

The strawman of someone telling to do research of the US commiting genocide in Iran?

It's not a serious comment, again trying to split the topic.

The US is trying to commit genocide of at least two cultures literally right now.
