    Why did this CNN article not address the issues with falsified rape reports from Ukrainian officials? Seems like they didn’t bother to do a proper job exploring the issue. This isn’t to deny that sexual assault is occuring in the conflict, it is instead meant to counter the broad painting of racist tropes being spread about Russian “Orcs” raping everywhere they go.

    Rape tends to go hand-in-hand with war no matter which country is the invader. Something you’ll need to contend with at the personal level is that if you are war-mongering, you are indirectly supporting sexual assaults among the people involved in the conflict. Maybe you should reconsider your justifications of war.
