Let's not forget that Russia massively exaggerated the numbers

"we were only doing a little genocide"

whilst

cringe

and then severely ramped it up in the invasion

Not after the invasion. After Ukraine reacted to its situation turning hopeless by turning to terrorist tactics like bombing civilian bridges during rush hour.

Why don't you go to Putin and ask him to pull out of Ukraine?

Because unlike you I don't wish for the genocide to continue until it's successful.

Of course, you see all Ukrainians as Nazis.

No. Just the ones who took power in 2014 and have since made it illegal to oppose them politically while making national holidays out of WW2 nazi heroes. The ones you keep photographing with their nazi tattoos because you somehow can't find all the good Ukrainians who aren't sporting them.

It's a nazi country. It's run by and run for nazis. You're defending them knowing this full well. You're covering for them. That's why I call them your comrades. You're a nazi by action.

Explains why you're so eager for Ukraine to roll over so Russia can come in take over the country and eradicate Ukraine and it's culture.

Typical nazi rhetoric: either you let us purge anyone not like us or you're doing oppressing us.

To say nothing of how fucking ignorant you are of the entire geopolitics around the war to say something so fucking stupid as to not even know why Russia is fighting. Shut the fuck up if you don't know anything. Sophomoric linguistic punch-ups like 'whilst' do absolutely fucking nothing to mask the fact that you're talking out of your ass.

That's it, keep trying to discredit me by calling me a Nazi while you push your Kremlin propaganda.

More Russian myths.

The president himself is Jewish, with something like 8 million Jews living in Ukraine. How much of the far right make up the Ukrainian parliament?

Stepan Bandera

Yeah fair enough, it's not great to be celebrating this guy. I suspect this is more about a big "fuck you" to the Soviet Union rather than celebrating his collaboration with the Nazis, given what happened to Ukraine in the 30's. To them he symbolises the fight for independence from Russia.

I'm not a nazi, I just use nazi state propaganda as a justification for deifying one of the key nazi figures that committed the holocaust

But it doesn't count because I have a jewish friend
