Why doesn't the right to self determination extend to Donetsk?

[–] [email protected] 23 points 7 months ago

Weird how that works isn't it, the same people who can't shut up about Taiwan are all of a sudden against separatism when it comes to Donetsk. It's as if what they actually care about is expanding western sphere of influence as opposed to democracy or self determination.

Most Liberals genuinely don't think Donetsk exists or that it's only Russian soldiers camping out there.

The fact that the majority of the population there is ethnic Russian is only evidence that they're all born KGB sleepers in Putin's multi-generational plot to corrupt the purity of Ukranian blood.

The liberal conception of rights prioritizes property ownership over human life, so the Kiev regime has a "right" to the land it wants, but the people living there don't have a right to be alive.
