Everything is politics, and should be talked about.

Also this would've been much more fitting with the Luhansk or Donetsk flags instead of the Kiev regime's, since the post-2014 coup government did commit a genocide in Eastern Ukraine.

Or use the Ukraine flag since Russia is currently committing genocide with forced relocations including children. Russification is not great.

You'd have to be completely out of your mind to call the Donbas war a genocide. And that's coming from Russian national who frequently calls out Ukraine government for being the same sort of garbage as Russian, if not much worse.

So unless this is some form of high level meta-sarcasm and/or trolling, I'd advise you and everyone who upvoted this to seek therapy.

Yes. It's a screenshot of our template for the r/place. I included Ukraine because some people disliked it too
