Maybe I've always hated Russians. Maybe I started hating them when they invaded a sovereign (I know that's a big word, look it up) country where I have family.
I didn't say the nazis were a good reason I said it was literally true that there are nazis in Ukraine. Their most famous military unit is openly nazi and has been very active in the war for the last 8 years.
If a majority Texans decided they wanted to secede that would be their right. It isn't a "tiny minority" of people that are upset in the separatist regions.
The west says Putin is a liar and his polls can't be trusted... and then points to polls like the one above.
"Some 2,400 Ukrainians except for those living on the Russian-occupied Crimean Peninsula and in areas of the Donbas region under the control of Russia-backed separatists were involved in the survey, which was conducted between September 28 and October 7."
According to guy in charge the war is about NATO expansion whether you believe it or not.
There are LITERALLY Nazis everywhere. That's like Putin saying his reason for invading was that there are people in the Ukraine.
I'm sure a lot of Ukrainians do want to join NATO (hell, they have a lunatic A-Hole with nuclear weapons running the country next door). That doesn't mean it was imminent.
Remember when Putin was not a lunatic?
Then he brought some of the "Russian" oligarchs to justice for their crimes.
The the Oligarch owned American media and pols began calling him a maniac

So, you don't dispute that there are Nazis everywhere and the Putin used it as a lame excuse to launch an invasion? And, that if he really want to denazify anywhere he should have started by firing a few missiles at Moscow? I'm so sorry that you have trouble actually responding to facts. It must be physically painful to be so stupid.

Putin laid out the conditions which we have listed several times.

There are no openly nazi units in the Russian or American military. You're being dishonest.
It doesn't matter what Ukrainians want. Zelensky is in charge and he's been begging to get into NATO for 3 years.
Don't worry, carmine. You can still get your fix of Russian propaganda.
You can still watch Russian-propaganda television if you really want to. RT, the English-language news network funded by the Kremlin and based in Moscow, was dropped from YouTube and American cable in early March, but still appears on an assortment of alternative video-hosting platforms, where reporting on the war is described as a “special operation chronicle.”

There's like 4 nazis in America and whenever they have a rally 10,000 people show up to protest them.
Meanwhile, there's 50 towns in Ukraine with an openly nazi mayor and their most famous military unit is openly nazi.

You're wrong. Take the L and move on.
Care to actually back up those claims? (I'm glad you didn't say there were LITERALLY 4 Nazi's in America). Or is that just a thing Putin told you while you were living in your mommy's basement?
Over the last 20 years the Kremlin has openly supported the Russian neo-Nazi group Russkii Obraz. Its leaders have held televised discussions with Kremlin officials and collaborated with Maksim Mishchenko, a member of parliament from the ruling party. They even hosted a concert by the infamous neo-Nazi band Kolovrat in Moscow’s Bolotnaya Square, within earshot of the Kremlin.
Look, you believed Putin when he told you he was there to denazify a country that doesn't really have a Nazi problem and you lapped it up. Take the L, like you take Putin's D, and move on (or at least out of your mom's basement).
There are LITERALLY Nazis in Russia (read up on Russkii Obraz and Ilya Goryachev)... maybe Putin should start lobbying some missiles at Moscow before he tries to deal with the Nazis in Ukraine. You may be surprised to learn there are even Nazis in the United States. Should Russia invade the US to help get rid of them? Or, do you not support their First Amendment right to free speech?
There are separatists in Texas that want to secede from the US (hell, Rick Perry didn't discount the idea while he as governor!). They LITERALLY want to be liberated. I guess you support Putin coming to save them? Since you're pretty dense and have a remarkably narrow world view, let me spell it out for you - there are a tiny minority of people in Donetesk and Luhansk that want to secede (just like there are a tiny minority of people in Texas that want to secede). Russia should stay the F out of both.
But, I thought this whole war was about NATO expansion? Oh, wait... you've been lied to by Putin time and time again, but just keep eating up his BS.
Putin does not get to speak to Americans.
How is he lying to us?
By the way, the Nazis are in Ukraine, not Russia. The Azov Battalion. And they are evil
There are Nazis in Russia and they have been fighting in Ukraine on behalf of the separatists. Alexander Barkashov is a former member of the Russian National Unity. RNU were neo-nazi/Russian ultranationalists. Barkashov was their leader until the group was banned in 2000. Some members, including Barkashov, splintered off and started the Russian Orthodox Army. ROA is behind the separatist insurgency in Donbas. ROA does not hold itself out as neo-nazis, but they do just about everything neo-nazis do. They are anti-semites and regularly abduct and harass any religious leader who is not a member of the Russian Orthodox Church (Protestants, Catholics, Greek Orthodox, etc.). It is the Russian Orthodox extremism that is driving support in Russia for the war with Ukraine with Patriarch Kirill, leader of the Russian Orthodox Church, openly supporting the war with Ukraine and claiming that it was a holy war over gay rights. Sadly, a more accurate picture of the war in Ukraine is a split among ultranationalists in the Orthodox church who believe that they are fighting a holy war against each other. The more the conflict turns into a religious war, the more difficult it will be to ever see a peace treaty to end the war.
There are definitely neo-nazis in Ukraine, but it is a much more complicated situation. Azov battalion and its political wing are more like Marine LePen's National Front party in France. They are ultranationalist right wingers who hate immigrants and want a purely Ukrainian society. In Ukraine, the Azov battalion's political wing only got 2% of the vote in parliamentary elections. Marine LePen got 33% of the vote in the 2017 presidential election.
There are definitely neo-nazis in the Azov battalion. But the Azov battalion has about 1500 members. The Ukraine armed forces has about 245,000 active duty soldiers and about the same number of reserves. Azov is a tiny portion of Ukraine's armed forces. Calling Ukrainians neo-nazis because of the Azov battalion is like calling the US Armed Forces neo-nazis because there are servicemembers who are active in neo-nazis groups.
When you actually look at the big picture in Ukraine instead of obsessing over tiny groups of radicals, you can clearly see that the neo-nazi issue is a pretext and has nothing to do with actual Ukrainian civil society. With its ultra-nationalist movement, Ukraine could have easily gone the way of Serbia following the fall of the Soviet Union. But it didn't. Ukraine elected Zelensky, a Jew who ran on an anti-war platform. Jews, LGBTQ+, immigrants, Catholics, Muslims, etc. all lived much better lives in Ukraine than they would in Russia.

Where did I say there's no nazis anywhere but Ukraine?
Putin says there's nazis in Ukraine. There are literally nazis in Ukraine.
The mental gymnastics you need to do to defend your idiotic argument is hilarious.

You can't swing a stick at a Trump rally without clubbing a Nazi. These are your people, so it's weird your so hung up about the Nazis in Ukraine taking point.

Why is it so hard to understand that Putin's use of Nazis in Ukraine is a BS pretext to launch an invasion. If he's really anointing Russia to be the country responsible for denazifying the planet, then he should start by removing them from Russia (rather than courting them) and should be planning to invade EVERY OTHER COUNTRY ON THE PLANET where there are Nazis. Hint: he's not. And, if you're okay with Putin bombing and invading countries to denazify them, then you would be okay with Russia troops marching through Washington DC to make sure there are no Nazis? As Jan. 6th proved, there are lots of far-right lunatics in American police forces across the country. We better call on the Russians to come put an end to that.
The mental gymnastics you have to do to find reasons to support an authoritarian dictator that supports the murder of minorities and civilians is hilarious.
Check this out! Even the Russian troll farms are suffering from massive attrition now. They can't even get someone who can write passable English.
Too funny.
Maybe I am Russian troll, maybe I m not, you can not know. You can only know what I want you to know - my noncompliance with framed, so called, discussions and echo chamber group thinking.
Important thing is that you understood very well what I had to say and you could not dispute it. Not surprisingly, it is hard to dispute truth. You could only point out that my command of English language is not up to your self proposed standards.
You are not funny, you are laughable.
However, I would appreciate if you would help me learn English a bit better. Maybe you could re-write my previous post in correct way?
INCORRECT!
Let me know if/when you plan to post something truthful.
Nazi's is a useful term and accusation that is thrown around to produce affect. The true enemy of Peace and stability is Fascist Authoritarian rule. Putin can't use that one to demonize the countries that he desires to conquer because he is the poster child for that form of gov. rule. Ukraine is far less authoritarian than Russia. But don't let facts allow you to jump off the Putin appeasement and propaganda train.
"Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday that Russia will not supply natural gas to the European market for free, as euros and dollars will not be accepted from March 31."
I wonder why Europe chose Ukraine as a hill to die on. Crazy times ahead, prices for everything about to skyrocket. For the US it's gonna be delayed for a month, as MSB is meeting Xi in Saudi Arabia in the beginning of May. De-dollarization has begun.
Very crucial moment indeed as Mike Adams goes into great detail on this (starts @ 14 mins in):
Sounds like Biden & the EU need to remove these sanctions ASAP & make amends with Putin or the U.S. could be driven into poverty on a scale never seen before. You play with fire & you'll eventually get burned.
