When the Orcs are raping elderly women and their sons. Then murdering them. They deserve the name. Just so you’re aware. There’s a reason they are called this. They earned it.

You can use extreme examples about any group, like black americans, or chinese, japanese or vietnamese enemies and then use derogatory names for the whole group.

Doing that is called racism. Example: You're a racist, like a nazi. Since we're on lemmy, all lemmy users are nazis. See how stupid that is to say?

Once a war starts, law and order goes out the window and war crimes are inevitable, as well as awful death and destruction and untold suffering.

And Russia is not solely responsible for starting this war. Should others who helped to start it not be held accountable?

Also, the civilian death toll in the Ukraine war is still lower than the death toll in gaza or the (second) iraq invasion. It's also hypocritical to dehumanize Russians but not USArians.

Never heard of soldiers in the USA rape and murder elderly women in conflict zones. Orks are named so for a reason. They are monsters.
