Saying “they’re doing ethnic cleansing” and backing it up with a link that’s just “they’re using cluster munitions” is literally exactly this

That's not what I did, and you just cherry picked this out of the sources I gave you.

The point I was making was that the only person who described themselves in terms of identity in that link called himself Ukrainian. This makes it very poor evidence for Ukraine targeting ethnic Russians.

Apparently you don't understand the difference between nationality and ethnicity.

The fact that there are a bunch of ethnic Russians living in that part is not evidence of ethnic cleansing by Ukraine.

The fact that people of Donbas rose up against the regime and have been fighting it for the past 8 years is proof of that.

So your position is that the ethnic cleansing happened in the ~two months between Yanukovych fleeing Ukraine in February and the declarations of the DPR and LPR in April?

No, but obviously all you know how to do is to make ridiculous straw man arguments.

I've said all I need to say here, and it's pretty clear that you're just going to keep regurgitating your talking points, so further discussion is not going to be productive. Bye.
