This also begs the question, at what point does a group of people deserve #sovereignty? At what point does a group of people possess the right to self-determination? #HumanRights #civilrights #democracy

I think the answer is actually at the smallest level of the individual, and society should be structured bottom-up, not top-down. I am a voluntarist that believes everyone should have the right to self-determination, and society should be rooted in consent, not coercion.

that being said, i believe Donbass deserves the right to self-determination on its level, and sovereignty on the microcosm is always preferable to forced assimilation or retention on the macrocosm. If the people of Donbass wants to be a part of Russia, not Ukraine, let them.

you cannot deny a people the right to self determination, then preach of "democracy" & "sovereignty".
