That's called Gish Galloping.
This is your thread but I was under the impression it was about Ukraine.
Maybe I'm wrong and it's about "If I can't get you to lay down and agree then I get to hang a jacket on you about body counts, Yemen, too many coups and how everthing-in-the-world-is-americas-fault-omgomgomg-tehhorrorofitall."

In which case, I give up and you win.

But if it really is about Ukraine, which I assume was the hint in "Dumbass" (Donbass??) then I once again remind you that not too long ago that region had Ukrainians living in it until
Stalin decided to do some ethnic cleansing, and ever since, there's Russians there almost exclusively.

Same with those other eastern Russian speaking provinces. They're Russian speaking because anyone who was Ukrainian was liquidated, or moved on outta there.
And my aghastitude simply wants to know if Ukrainians, living IN Ukrainian cities, speaking Ukrainian and depending upon their Ukrainian leadership for protection,
get any say in this whatsoever.

Did you now want to switch to Yemen?
Okay, this is now a thread about Yemen.
Happy now?
