I've seen so many stupid takes today, and this is one of them. The conflicts aren't similar!
They're not identical, but they have similarities. What Russia is trying to do to Ukraine is not dissimilar to what Israel did to Palestine half a century ago.
You are wrong. What Ukraine has been doing to Donbass for years, is what Israel is doing to Palestine for almost a century.
In what ways are they different that it justifies supporting Ukraine but not Palestine?
No one is saying they're identical. But there are similarities.
