No not whataboutism.
Just dark humour. And pointing out that our hands are far from clean
I don't for one second pretend that the crimes against humanity the west commit are even close to the crimes commited by the likes of Russia, China and Iran. (Not sure I include Israel in that statement, the states actions are now on a moral level equivalent to those others to me).
It's not a what aboutism to point out that our hands are far from clean and for all our bullshit about our advanced tech and precision strikes the US hit a fucking girls school full of kids... And we just moved on like nothing happened.
But I don't want to distract and move the conversation away from the war crimes of Russia.

u/Life-Top6314 18d ago
Depends, on where the bomb detonated.
If it detonated in water, yeah, theyre dead.
If it detonated above them, and what were seeing is just a wave of debris, then they probably have a better than average chance of surviving - since a lot of the shrapnel would be slowed down befor ehitting them

No I don't... but the title of the video is that a missile hit a swimming pool, not that they targeted it. The fact they claimed they hit a military target means they either targeting it unknowingly, genuinely thinking it was a legit target (bad intel, although I bet that pool has been there since before the war) , OR it was intercepted by EW or AD, in which case why not just say 'the pool wasn't the intended target'.

There is no reason for Russia to target a swimming pool, it's eiter a complete miss on the intended target or it's a result of random terror bombing.

u/Ltb1993 19d ago
Yeah drone strikes are cheap massively produced ways of straining Air defence before the real attack happens with the added bonus that saturation can work well but not always perfect
Especially since it doesn't happen in a vacuum, the opposing military is looking to make sure the attack isn't as successful as possible
EW means that drones using GPS or any other electronic measure to correct or direct can be degraded. Meaning the targeting can fail. That applies to both sides, though drones can still if course be used to intentionally hit non military targets it's not a very clear messuring stick
It's more fitting to look to more accurate weapons because if it hits a target it'd either intentional or relying on bad information. If it happens alot there's more evidence of intent to hit civilians, a institutional trend. Or they have very unreliable sources of information. Or quite likely a bit of both, they want to hit something aiming for progress so the targets have a lower burden of proof and accepted high risk of civilian casualties

Блядь, what more evidence do you want. Talking about trends and shit. They constantly bomb civilian infrastructure using drones and all sorts. Yesterday, they bombed a Red Cross warehouse and an apartment building using ballistic missiles that they claim are accurate to 10m. Ballistics can't be jammed, once they're falling, they're falling where they were planned to.

I made a neutral statement about weaponry and how they can be used and the issues with their deployment
I'm not laying any claims of any side committing any crimes. None are fault free.
Especially with drones both sides face the same issues both with deploying drones and with stopping drones.
I even mentioned that the more accurate weapons are the ones that should be used as a litmus test in whether civilians are intentionally being targeted. I think you misread both my comment and the intentions
1
u/SnooTomatoes3032 19d ago
Saying 'if there's more evidence' is not neutral. There's mountains of it. That's calling downplaying war crimes by an aggressor state.
Proceeding to say you're not laying claims on an aggressor state (and also apparently laying fault on the people defending themselves) and making it a both sides argument despite how there's overwhelming evidence for one side doing pretty much all of it.
Bullshiterry of the highest order.

u/Ltb1993 18d ago
Firstly, let me repeat that you have misread my comment and made a few assumptions. Instead of engaging in a conversation to clarify things, you've gone straight to accusations and a misrepresentation of what I've said. I am a pro-Ukrainian commentator talking about the technical deployment of weapons, not the people deploying them.
My initial comment was in response to someone else saying Russia likely wanted to target a different area, which I think is more likely. If they were looking to intentionally target civilians in that moment, they would have hit an apartment building, something they routinely do with more accurate weapons. That is the higher burden of proof I am talking about.
I will always be skeptical of drone attack claims from either side because drones aren't particularly accurate in areas with heavy EW. It is much like when pro-Russian accounts claimed Ukraine intentionally hit a shopping mall when in reality, EW interfered with a weapon system that is incredibly easy to degrade. Because this is a hardware limitation, I look at the technology neutrally.
Where I am not skeptical is when cruise missiles hit Ukrainian apartment buildings. Those weapons are highly accurate and not particularly prone to EW. That is undeniable evidence of intentional targeting, and that is where we can clearly point to the Russian doctrine of terror.
There is plenty of real evidence to criticize Russia for without relying on a low burden of proof. When we have definitive proof of precision weapons targeting civilians, we don't need to use unreliable drone data as a measuring stick.
Please quote me in context properly next time and do not mistake technical analysis for apologism. Look at my comment history if you want a better picture of where I stand. I avoided naming sides initially because I couldn't be assed falling into a bad faith argument or a whataboutism trap.
