It's a war. Russian children in Russia are the responsibility of their parents. The onus is on them to take those children to safety, outside of Russia.
Failing to effectively defeat Russia ASAP is also resulting in lots of Ukrainian children dying in Ukraine. Those deaths are a lot more morally important and need to be avoided.
Indeed, there's a lot of kidnapped Ukrainian children in Russia right now. Likely tens of thousands of them, if not even more (it's hard to get exact numbers as Russia refuses to allow independent organizations into Russia to do proper counting).
There's a not-trivial chance many of those children end up being killed as the war progresses. This possible outcome is incredibly sad. But it shouldn't stop Ukraine from trying to win. Wining decisively now will save many innocent lives later.
During WW2 quite a few PoW, Jews, and other Holocaust victims were killed by accident during allied air raids on German held territory. You try to avoid it. But it will happen.
Amir Taaki's tweet is bullshit BTW. He didn't get funding from the coinjoin bounty because we didn't think his team deserved it. The initial thing he tried to get a reward for was garbage, and he and his team were, frankly, a bunch of unprofessional potheads.
Lol there are children more important than others. What a lame.
So, is your CIA manual suggesting these kind of lame responses, or you just have them prepared before hand? Perhaps your boss redacted them for you.
I know you want war and conflict, it's your job to facilitate them. But come on Peter, have some decency, you already have enough Bitcoin. Just retire and end this misery.

Obviously there are.
Every western country spends enough money per child on education to "save" the lives of dozens of children facing starvation. You are basically arguing that we should do the opposite, which obviously will result in even more hungry mouths to feed the next generation.
Fuck socialism.
