I'm guessing, based purely on the countries highlighted, that this is a Russian sponsored resolution.

There are plenty of more genuine resolutions you could've picked, but they wouldn't have fit your narrative as well. Please don't launder Russia's lies just to embellish your point.

"If Russia says Nazis are bad, than Nazis must be good!"

Liberal politics is just reaction.

I love it, it leads to epic blunders like having an homage to a nazi in Canada because he fought the russians.

There's at least one Nazi who fought in the SS buried in the Arlington Cemetery in DC.

Yeah, but they just expunge that from their collective memory.

“If Russia says combating the glorification of Nazis are bad, they might be using too many modifiers.”

Pretty funny how you saw that all of Latin America, Africa, and Asia voted against genocide, and your first reaction is to call them russian bots.

More that Ukraine voted against it and every single Western country abstained. Was I wrong though?

We can't condemn the Nazis because if we condemn the Nazis people will think we're Nazis. When people see that we won't condemn the Nazis, that's how they'll know we aren't Nazis.

I think its more likely that the abstaining countries rely on America for trade or military in some way and don't want to aggravate them politically but clearly aren't willing to vote alongside them.

Or, as the other (better informed) guy said. This resolution equates tearing down soviet monuments to be Nazism.

That by extension means it equates Ukraine (the country partially occupied and fraudulently annexed by Russia) with Nazism. Countries which respect Ukraine's sovereignty (and have enough skepticism of Russia to read more than the title) wouldn't want to vote against (because of the title) but also wouldn't want to vote in favor.

Tearing down monuments to WW2 veterans who fought against the Nazis certainly suggests a certain affinity with the Nazis.
