A video shared by Ukraine’s police shows a Russian drone deliberately tracking a man at a market in Kherson. President Zelenskyy said the footage is evidence of Moscow’s “drone safari” against civilians.

    I didn’t expect to grow up and find that war crime is borderline normalized. In like every fucking war. I thought that it was something out of the ordinary when I was young. And people who committed them were brought to justice.

    But trolololol NOPE.

      War criminals do get brought to justice. But it requires that their opponents fight until the war is totally won, which is not something that is often done. Most wars end in a negotiated truce. Wars like WW2 where it doesn’t stop until one side surrenders unconditionally and completely submits to occupation by the other? That’s less common. It happens, but not often. But when it does? Yeah, that’s when you get Nuremberg trials.
