So you think words of an Ukrainian priest about Russian atrocities published by a British media source are invalid because... Americans vote for warmongering? Really?

Or do you believe barbarism is a zero-sum game and only one place in the whole wide world can engage in it at the same time?

And finally, you say "This isn't barbarism. War is barbarism" - what exactly do you believe is happening in Ukraine right now?
