    Can you tell me precisely what Ukraine did to provoke Russia into invading, other than just historically being part of the Russian empire?

      What you know as “Ukraine” is the illegitimate nazi puppet government that the US empire installed in 2014 for the purpose of provoking yet another proxy war

        Can you give the specific, Nazi actions or policies Ukraine has placed on it’s people. I’m not a huge expert on Ukrainian politics. But say if someone were to ask me what nazi like things the US is doing, I’d be able to say

        Making threats to attack neighboring countries (Canada, Greenland, Panema), directly attacking other countries like Venuzuala and Iran. Putting people in camps, raising the police state, canceling citizenship of american citizens, prosecuting journalists, Restricting rights for LGBT.

        I can make a long list for Russia and Isreal as well.

        So educate me, as far as I can see Ukrain seemed to keep to it’s self pretty well. I’ve not really heard any examples of extreme authoritarianism or attacking journalists, or finding an outgroup to persecute… or anything to imply they had any intent of threatening any of their neighboring countries.

          the 2014 gov’t adopted policies to look the other way while the likes of azov brigade committed atrocities against russian speakers in the east side of their country; isreali style.

        By “you know”, you secretly mean “the world except like 4 authoritarian countries knows” right? It’s great to question what media tells you about a place, but if the only countries that deny it are allied to the country invading them… Just maybe you’re either misinformed or actively spreading misinformation
