I was a lib back when it happened and didn't pay attention, and I know I can't trust natopedia for any sort of accurate telling of history.

So like, what happened? I see that there were some protests, and then chunks of Ukraine broke off like some mapgames shit, and Russia is involved somehow but also Ukrainian Nazis? I've heard of Azov because they train American Nazis, but they were involved in this somehow right?

I want to make sense of whatever is happening over there, but I'd rather hear it from someone whose grandfather didn't murder Jews, if you know what I mean. Where to start?

The population of Crimea, being ethnically and historically Russian, said ‘fuck this’ and left, then joined Russia.

Don't forget Donetsk and Lugansk breaking away and still trying to be independent, which even Russia won't formally recognize.

Maidan put pro-west, anti-Russian fash sympathisers in charge.

To clarify: pro-west, anti-(Russian), fash sympathizers, not pro-west, anti-(Russian fash sympathizers)
