This narrative is fucking ridiculous to help justify an unjustifiable war. Putin is a fascist leading a fascist regime in a country that is the farthest thing from USSR. Invaded an independent country, started a modern trench war, because the Ukrainian army has a group that has Nazis? That's the lamest excuse. All armies in the world have groups that are Nazi/Fascist sympathizers. You need to stop parroting fascist propaganda while calling yourselves Leftists.

The current regime in Kiev was installed by a US coup in 2014. Obama even bragged about carrying it out.

Evidence of this? It's hard to prove a 100%, and I doubt AES countries do.

If Ukraine is so independent why does Zelensky has to go regularly to the white house to lick whoever sits there and get embarrassed publicly?

30% of ukranians flew before being conscripted. They guys fighting are the poor ones that dont actually own any apartment in the donbass.

The ones fighting are the nazis because they're the only ones with the will to fight at this point. Look at how azov ballooned from a battalion to basically the entire military

"Independent country" lol no, current gov in Ukraine was installed by US backed coup, is an obvious puppet for our foreign policy, removing it is a good thing regardless of who does it

You are an American, or you only get info on socials. Read about Ukranian war a bit, how it could have ended in few months, how the end of the war would have hurt american interests. Stat here, but eurpean newspapers were pretty informing at that time. https://www.intellinews.com/fresh-evidence-suggests-that-the-april-2022-istanbul-peace-deal-to-end-the-war-in-ukraine-was-stillborn-321468/

Please guys stop thinking about good and bad guys in politics or wars. Start thinking.

I love how libs have no framework for analyzing why things happen so you just end up combining words you've heard before into a salad. Entertain me, tell me why you think this war started.

"Everyone has fascists"

A) wrong, pure projection

B) And do those groups run the entire government?

Americans are mostly one dimensional. They really believe they are the good guys fighting to export freedom and democracy in the world. They are mostly ultras, not an once of auto critic for their team. They are always the good guys. Always. It is irritating. Anyway, zelensky government was a coup. The guy is right.

If you say "fascist" often enough, reality will bend to your will. You are a IRL jedi, controlling the world with your mind. Keep doing it.
