    What if Hitler was being a Nazi as a social experiment? Maybe he was just doing an ironic prank to show how bad nazism is?

      Honestly even the OG Nazis did have an unserious and troll-like outlook and attitude. It’s why they put skulls on their uniforms and played word games to avoid admitting what they were doing.

      Liberals don’t even realize their “Ukrainians are just trolling the Russians” argument is actually a tally in our arguments favor not theirs.

    Yeah yeah… Putin had no other option but to invade the country and protect ethnic Russians from Nazis to protect them from, checks notes, a democratically elected Jewish President. Just like World War 2.

    The historical dialectic is strong in this one

      The way you studiously avoid engaging with the eight years of terror bombing the Ukranian coup regime committed before the Russian Federation stepped in is extra disgusting now that we have, in Palestine, a counterexample of what happens when no one sends troops to stop it.

      Do all people deserve self-determination, or not? If yes, you have no justification for the attempted ethnic cleansing of eastern Ukraine by it’s own government.

      Much like how Israel isn’t representative of the Jewish people, neither is the Ukrainian dictator who utilizes nazi barrier troops to stop the conscripted Ukrainian people from turning their guns rightfully against the NATO puppet government.

      But nice try trying to weaponize someone’s jewishness in a classic act of antisemetism to create a thought-terminating argument

      Notably, people like you never manage to produce any sort of explanation for what Russia should have done in response to the most prolific invader in the world attempting to amass weapons and troops near Russia’s most populated areas (which is especially bad considering that NATO is involved in at least one high-profile genocide right this moment).

      Who promised peace, got called a dipshit by said nazis, and then said minsk is a joke, unlimited war now from his mi6 handlers? That jewish president? Who also wants ukraine to be second pisrael?

      (And yes invasion was a bad idea, cause it was more humane to just strike rada instead of this poor people fight rich people talk shit)

      Being a Nazi in Ukraine today does not mean the same as being a Nazi in Germany during WW II. The context changes, so the sworn enemy of the supremacist also changes. Yesterday they hated the Jews, but now they hate Muslims, Russians, other inferior Asiatic people and the like. It’s no surprise today how they call Russian people “orcs”, and cling to their European ideal.

      Today, for example, there’s a very famous Jewish supremacist state (which is also a close ally of Ukraine, including the Azov Battalion) which has a habit of starving Palestinian people to death, bombing hospitals and schools, sniping little children and the like.

      Fascism, Nazism, Zionism, Ukrainian neo-nazism etc, may have different forms today and then, but the supremacist speech, where there’s a superior culture or ethnicity and a dehumanized enemy is very much present in this day and age.

      Wait wait, I’m getting it. The US Secretary of Defense Pete “the Alcoholic” has crusader neo-fascist Nazi tattoos, and the US is rounding up minorities in concentration camps. Maybe Russia should invade us next. It would be doing us a favor. You know for Freedom. We have a lot of Nazis here too.
