It's ok to discriminate against a nation for waging war. Should be done to any nation. Including Israel, etc.

Are you lost? This is not reddit. Also, Russia could stop attacking an european nation to gain some respect back. But they won't. Instead they threaten everyone with nukes daily and cry why nobody likes them.

So your argument is that Linux foundation should relocate to.. where? Sorry that was such a bad argument that I did not even consider it being one.

Why would they relocate? To keep a few Russian maintainers? Because not relocating is "racist"? Not sure what you mean, just trying to guess.

There should be sanctions on every country invading. Its not rocket science. It's crazy to say that russia is being sanctioned for racist reasons. They are literally attacking an European nation. Makes sense that other European countries sanction them, no?

Sanctions against a country/nation that is attacking another sovereign nation are not "racist". Russia could easily stop their war to start getting rid of the sanctions.

Oh, obviously not, USA was definitely not defending itself. I was just pointing out that it would be ridiculous to say that USA was committing genocide on its own citizens when they sent them to war.

So the argument is basically same as saying that the americans committed genocide during vietnam war because of the draft. I think it's extremely common practice to require citizens to defend your country during an invasion. I would argue this is done in most wars.

Sure, it's not great, but I don't think Zelensky is doing anything unexpected. Any European country would likely do more or less the same if Russia invaded.

As a European that's what I expect our government to do during an invasion. I would not call that genocide even if I'm sent to die.

So your point is that Ukraine is committing genocide by forcing their citizens to defend their country? And somehow they are the bad guys, not the imperialist Russians?

Maybe I misunderstood, but if not, that is some impressive mental gymnastics.

Maybe, if the goal of Ukraine is to risk losing international support just to be able to... kill a few civilians? Sounds like a very risky and convoluted plan to achieve nothing good.
