      Somebody really needs to make a game show where they pit a liberal vs a toddler to see who has a better understanding of geopolitics.

      I don’t need to be a Russian asset to recognize that Ukraine is a literal Nazi state.

        I’m not saying that’s fake, it’s likely not. But it also isn’t representative of the Ukrainian government or people. You’d find a bunch of idiots like that in most countries.

          (usually) Won’t find presidents of said countries posing proudly with his Neo-Nazi militias in front of Neo-Nazi symbols. Is that not representative of the government?

            No longer ‘militias’. That would make them somewhat independent and not reflecting on the government. They are proud official and accepted regiments and battalions of their army.
            Like the official remembrances for WW2 genociders of Jews, Russians and Poles.

              Oh. Jesus. I guess I hadn’t thought about the difference between them being militas vs legit military. That is terrifying.

              What’s funny is the supposed progressive candidate for senate in my state, Peggy Flanagan, has a statement on her website that says: “America has the responsibility to […] promote democratic values around the world.” And part of that wonderful plan lists supporting these Ukrainian Nazis as a must. I’m not sure why I have an obligation to “spread democracy” (yikes) across the world here from Minnesota.

              Among others is: “rebuilding NATO ties”, “cracking down on foreign actors like China who cheat to undercut American workers and Minnesota businesses”, and while she does say she supports an immediate halt to weapons to Isreal, proposes a 2-state solution just like every other liberal who doesn’t actually want to solve the rabid problem of Israel’s genocide.

              Fuck man I gotta get the fuck out of this country
