I made some comments, then? I intended to ask earnest questions in good faith to find out more about a situation, but got waylaid by some folks that assume I support Russian aggression and their flimsy pretense at invasion. You’re technically right, which is the best kind I guess. Way to get to the meat of the issue here and point out that I never got to actually discuss it.

I asked some questions about this slam dunk of an article, and you throw thing out there like “But you think it’s ok when Russia does that”

I said that I want ukraine to not be a nazi country, not that I’m convinced it is. I’m sorry I spoke on the internet and never should have done that.

“Ukraine’s far-right political parties have consistently received minimal support at the ballot box. In the 2019 parliamentary elections, such groups collectively failed to reach even 3% of the vote. President Volodymyr Zelensky—himself of Jewish heritage, and whose grandfather fought in the Red Army against the Nazis during the Second World War—was elected by a landslide majority. These basic facts undermine the core premise of the “de-Nazification” narrative, which appears increasingly detached from Ukraine’s political and social reality.”

That’s exactly what it says, but it seems like you just want to argue. I knew responding to the internet was a mistake.

The logic states that national nazi parties don’t do well at the polls, and Zelenski has Jewish ancestry, therefore nazis are impossible and their existence in Ukraine is just a myth.

I’d like them to be wrong, but this article isn’t very convincing.

I’ve literally asked about it on rednote.

Not great. I live in a state that has been red my entire life so my presidential vote has actually never counted.

Redder than the devil’s asshole.
