So, that’s why Russia invaded Ukraine? To clear them of neo-Nazis? That sounds like a stupid excuse anyone could make up to justify what they do. Seems most Ukrainians were content with the situation and had no interest going to war with Russia. Putin started all this shit back in 2014 with his first set of imperialistic land grabs.

And isn’t Russia full of its own neo-Nazis? Anyways it’s always good seeing a video of Ukrainian drones blowing up a bunch of Russian soldiers. At least they aren’t targeting hospitals and schools like your dear supreme leader

This is what I mean by "not well-adjusted" bro. You put all this work into trying to position yourself as the sane and rational one, but most people pick up on shit like this and correctly intuit that you're a bloodthirsty loser driven by petty resentment who can't even seem to recognize it. You are a prime candidate for Falling Down

Man, seriously try to understand the position we're holding without reacting with bad faith responses. If you don't understand, ask. If you just agree with genociding Russians, though, just say so in order for us to understand your views.

People here don't agree with genocide, period. This post is discussing genociding Russians, something Nazis famously wanted to do, and we are critiquing it. The US supported a coup in Ukraine in 2014 against a Russian-friendly government to install a NATO-friendly government, which happened to be neo-Nazis. They sought membership within NATO, something that Ukraine has tried to do various times depsite being against treaties from USSR-times and warnings from Putin not to seek NATO membership. Russia invaded Ukraine to prevent it from joining NATO and continuing the encirclement of Russia by NATO and any potential future NATO-led attack against Russia. Does Putin really care about the Nazis? Probably not, there are also Nazis in Russia. The difference is that the Nazis in Ukraine hold institutional power and were seeking to join NATO. They also threaten to plunge the world into a nuclear war between NATO and Russia. So, he is fighting NATO Nazis in Ukraine primarily to stop the advancement of NATO and potential further nuclear world war.

How are we crazy for seeing this situation and not agreeing with the view that Russians should be genocided?

No you fucking baby, the Russians kicked in the door right before the Ukrainian army was going to massacre their way through the donbass region in this war, the prior skirmish after the color revolution was ukrainians of Donbass and Crimean seeing the writing on the wall and exercising their right to pursue national self-determination and being punished for it with violence.

And as a matter of fact most Russian fascists that weren't blackbagged, beaten and blackmailed into toeing the United Russia party line to be good sheepdogs that keep the domestic reactionaries loyal to the state by the GRU were chased out and chose Ukraine as their second home post-maidan because they held enough common viewpoints they could get over the nazi race science the ukronazis play with to forge their national myth of aryanness.

Also nice of you to admit you enjoy watching normal working-class people get butchered like animals - something hexbears have openly condemned on all sides - like a rabid frothing nazi
