If your view on Ukraine is opposite that of the state dept, you're probably just ingesting unhealthy amounts of Russian propaganda.

Also ask any Russian LGBT activists how their lives are going right now. Oh wait, you can't because they're in jail. Sickens me that supposed "leftists" will run interference for such a blatantly bigoted regime.

If your view on Ukraine aligns with that of the state department then you're an ignoramus. Meanwhile, are you suggesting that Ukraine is the bastion of LGBT rights? ๐Ÿคก

Calling whataboutism is a logical fallacy that people of low intellect use to deflect from the fact that they're engaging in hypocrisy.
