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

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.
