If you're a pacifist, you're treated as a communist-nazi.

If you're advocating that Ukraine should lay down its arms before clear security guarantees are in place, or at the loss of its territory you may as well be a "communist-nazi".

This was Russias final offer - which I'm not advocating for but it does contain some perfectly reasonable demands to protect themselves from US aggression. Of course Russia wants to keep using Sevastopol and doesn't want offensive weapons on their boarders.

Putin highlighted the fact that it was "NATO that was undertaking dangerous attempts to develop Ukrainian territory and increase its potential along [Russia's] borders". He demanded "reliable, legal guarantees" that would preclude NATO from expanding its territory toward Russia or deploying its strike weapon systems in countries bordering Russia.

Of course, if you're denying that the US is a terrorist regime that has killed millions of innocent civilians and ruined many countries in the last decades then you may well be a fascist.

I'm certainly not denying that Russia is an authoritarian far-right regime that suppressed Ukraine and that Ukraine absolutely has a right to be free. But if you're bordering on Russia, you'll have to make accommodations and be smart. Total war is not smart.
