*** Official Putin Started Shootin' Thread ***

[MadMojoMonkey]

And it's kinda crazy that if I attempt to talk about police chiefs asking for a list of the Jews in his town, that doesn't trigger alarm bells, rather it triggers "wtf dude Russia bad".

Let's just pay no attention to it, because Putin is an asshole. Let's pretend that didn't happen.

wtf dude Nazis are bad!!!


Also, the lie about the severity of the Nazi (bad!!) problem as a pretext for the widespread loss of life and liberty to not only the Ukrainian people but the approaching 100,000 Russians that have died for this... that's bad, too. Worse, even.

It's almost like bringing up a totalitarian shithead's excuses to do evil and pointing out there was a grain of truth in the evil warlord's BS is - understandably - going to sound like being an apologist for said evil fuckhead.

My apologies for misinterpreting your intent to just casually point out a 2 year old story of a problematic Nazi in Ukraine.

The UK was justified in invading Germany in WWII to protect Europe, even though the UK wasn't originally a threat. Hitler knew that the UK would be an extremely difficult enemy so would have preferred us to stay out of the war. We could have done. We didn't sit by and do nothing because we recognised the threat to Europe was too severe, even if the UK could avoid the same fate.

Some invasions are justified. It's just this Russian invasion isn't one of them.

That's not to say we should be supporting a corrupt Ukrainian regime.

Ok I missed that, but then what's your point? Most people support the Ukraine because they think the russian invasion is unjustified.
