Thankfully Ukraine has prevented most of the genociding that Russia wants to do but in the beginning it was pretty bad. Also the amount of drones that hit residential buildings can be classified as an act of genocide.

Is Ukraine also genociding ethnic Russians?

Is Ukraine doing anything on the list of things that would make it a genocide? No, I didn’t think they were. Go suck putin chode somewhere else.

What do you think the Azov Nazis were up to in Donbass? Do you think that banning the Russian language (which is many Ukrainians’ first language) in Ukraine is a good idea?

Russia is kidnapping children and re-educating them, which is basically point 5 of article 2 on the definition from the convention on prevention of genocide.
That’s not watering down the term, that’s literally using the word to describe what they’re doing.
