I'm no Russia fan, but Ukraine is literally Nazi. We're watching two drunk assholes wrestling

Actually Russia is literally Nazi. The only difference is the gas chambers.

The far right candidate for president got roughly 2% of the vote in the last election. So no, Ukraine is not literally Nazi.

Why did Zelenskyy honor their Nazi past?

Why do they run Ukraine's military?

What Nazi past? Ukraine was a part of the Russian empire until the October Revolution in 1917 after which it declared independence. Allies of Lenin overthrew the government and it became part of the USSR until the dissolution of that state. The country lost roughly a quarter of its population in WWII after the Nazis invaded. Assuming you’re talking about Bandera who worked so closely with the Nazis that he ended up in Sachsenhausen concentration camp for the majority of the war. As regards to the claim that Nazis run the military now, that’s is simply not true. Again, 2% of Ukraine voted for the far right candidate for president. 2%. Less than just about every other country I can think of.

I mean Ukraine is a pretty racist place from what I understand, but no worse than Poland for example.

It's hyperbolic and hysterical to call them Nazis. Nazis invade other countries and commit genocide.

Ukraine literally bombed their own citizens simply for being loyal to Russia

Ukraine is literally Nazi.

No, it's not. That's Russian propaganda for domestic consumption. How the fuck did you even come across that?

And one could argue that despite them both being assholes, it doesn't give one of them rights to hit the other without consent.

Ukraine started it, genius, by bombing their own citizens loyal to Russia

Ukraine has a right to defend itself from an invader. Sovereignty and self-defense are pretty simple ideas.

Ukraine started it, genius,

That's a lie. Russia can end it tonight by simply going home.
