You could as easily say israel would stop bombing palestine if hamas stopped doing terrorist attacks but then were just going back 100 years of back and forth tbh.

Point is that if israel did what you said today, the violence towards them would not stop. And just picking one side and unilaterally ignoring everything bad the other side has done is literally just feeding into this shit

Whose army is going to disarm them? You have a lot of faith in the U.N here to not fuck this up even worse than it is now

True, the issue of being bitten would not go away. Perhaps a gene that makes them not attracted to biting humans somehow, but that would be a lot harder to implement

It’s more like snapchat stories, they last for 24hrs usually

There is some promising research with gene drives, which are essentially genes that when passed on to offspring, overwrite the other copy of the gene from the other parent.

It may be possible to introduce non disease spreading mosquitoes with gene drives into the wild and within an extremely short time all mosquitoes in the population would be non disease carrying.

Of course, this is something that you may not be able to reverse once done, so it’s a pretty drastic step to take after very intense scrutiny.

Joke’s on you, i jumped ship a couple weeks ago.

Except Georgia and Chechnya didnt get any attention either.

It’s a bit reductive to boil the whole thing down to race. Geography has a lot to do with it too, Ukraine being right between the E.U and Russia, and being an absolutely massive country itself.

Politically, Ukraine has been aligning itself more towards western europe for a while, so again the west has a direct interest in supporting its ally.

There are a lot of factors that should be considered together, just picking out one and using that to prop up your own agenda is dishonest.

This btw doesnt mean that I’m absolving all in the west of racism, I’m sure there are many for whom that is the most important factor, but its definitely not the majority.

It also doesnt mean that I think we shouldnt care about Syria, Georgia or Chechnya, I’m simply pointing out that there are more factors at play than race, and i dont think race is as big a factor as this post makes out.
