leftists: there were war crimes being committed in ukraine before 2022, the country has a real nazi problem. please look up the UN reports
liberals: i refuse to do literally any research myself but theres definitely no evidence for that lol ur basically a capitalist
Oh, wow. Did not know that was a Nazi symbol. TIL.
edit: for anyone else who's interested - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfsangel
If a Ukrainian solider is wearing a something and you don't recognize it, its a hate symbol. If you do recognize it, its probably also a hate symbol. 
There is another Nazi symbol there, the Sonnenrad.
Nazis are in Ukraine, and Nazis are bad people that should be stopped.
Russia is using this as an excuse for a shameless land grab.
These are not mutually exclusive statements.
IMO, it really wouldn't be all that different to the US using the cartels as an excuse to invade Mexico and slurp up some new land. And yeah, I'm aware that Republicans are already talking about it, because they just can't stop themselves from any% speedrunning the worst takes possible. To be completely frank, I wonder if Russia would keep giving a shit about the Nazis once they've taken the land. IIRC, like basically everyone else right now, Russia itself has an embarrassingly bad Nazi problem, so maybe Russia will invade Russia next.
Honestly not a bad take compared to many others I've seen regarding this shit show. Russia doesn't really give a shit about Nazism in Ukraine and is using this war to secure it's strategic assets around the region that had been in under Russian/Soviet control for centuries before the breakup of the USSR. 2014's coup threatened any sort of cooperation in Crimea and hence Russia proceeded to annex it.
I think they do care a little bit in that for the last 8 years those nazis have been engaged in a civil war right next to the Russian border and believe that ethnic Russians are inferior. Russia doesn't need to be ruled by saints to be annoyed at that turn of events
