I phrased it poorly but I’m saying a lot of people on Lemmy are commenting “good, fuck Russia” about this situation while simultaneously holding the thought that civilian deaths are bad in Gaza. I’m saying both are bad.

Examine your logic of “Government X is bad, therefore it’s good when bad things happen to its civilians.”
I’d suggest this way of thinking is flawed in both situations.
If this thought was any more shallow it would evaporate.
