Wow! The House used the word "genocide"(post 895). Is the House blinkered? That is why frame is important. The people who voted "no" knew they had cover. They had the cover of real genocide.

The 'cover' of real genocide? That's like saying it's fine if I kidnap your kid because a guy somewhere else is blowing-up kids.To say that is moral nonsense. No one has cover. I stand by my initial statement--there is no non-evil reason to not vote to condem Russia here.

'20 Days In Mariiupol'

https://20daysinmariupol.com/

A remarkable two hour PBS documentary on the brutal, illegal and unprovoked invasion of Ukraine by the Russian kleptocracy led by a former KGB officer turned gangster, Vladimir Putin and his murderous friends.
