Russia used its powerful hypersonic Oreshnik ballistic missile for a third time in Ukraine as part of a massive attack on Kyiv and its surrounding region that killed at least four people and injured dozens.

Russia hit the city of Bila Tserkva in the Kyiv region with the missile, Ukraine’s president Volodymyr Zelenskyy said. He described a Russian assault that hit a water supply facility, burned down a market, damaged dozens of residential buildings and several schools, as well as the Oreshnik missile strike.

“They are genuinely deranged,” Zelenskyy said on Telegram.

      I have no skin in the game. I don’t really care. I was just making a joke. Although your response has made it funnier.

          If you have a username like that, I would expect you to be able to take a joke about it. What the user said, to me, doesn’t read any different from comments like “thanks for the help, rimjob_steve”.

      The expression you’re looking for is “ad hominem”

      And no, this was clearly not ad hominem

      The opposition of two usernames, one extremely crass and one extremely bland is indeed a bit funny. It was an actual, and quite obvious joke.

      Also, you didn’t really make an argument, you stated an opinion. One I kind of share I might add. Most/all people I have tagged as “Tankie” or “Vatnik” (which isn’t many since I only joined recently) seem to be from .ml
