Can’t disagree on that, that Ukrops are terrorist.

History is full of groups that were called terrorists before they were called governments. Whoever decides what is an act of war and what is an act of terrorism decides the rules of the game

They’re both self-defense

Bit of an oversimplification, but I think a redeemable takeaway is that the rhetoric changes depending on which side (western) capital is supporting.

What am I missing about the comments here? It’s a satirical cartoon, so it’s not meant to be taken as these labels are what the author would apply to each group. I read it as highlighting the hypocrisy of how Ukraine fighting Russia is self defence but Palestine fighting Israel is seen as terrorism. Is this a controversial take?

This comment section is embarrassing. Not a single person I know thinks this way. Both Ukrainians and Palestinians are the less wealthy, victims of horrible historic invaders and abusers. Neither group is classified as terrorists. This some dumb tanky shit trying to support Russia. Fucking yawn.

That’s only the most superficial level everyone should agree with on principle if they have eyes and ears. Now let’s see who/what is backing these groups, lol.

What double standards? When someone uses a rifle to kill people who were on their way to the voting booth and in retaliation you bring in a tank it’s self-defense. When someone throws a rock at you because they’re being oppressed and you bring in a tank it’s terrorism. Nothing wrong with this picture.
