The only good thing an Azovite ever did was starve to death in the basement of a steel factory

Don´t you know that when Azov was integrated into the Ukrainian military they instantly transformed into fighters for democracy, equality of LGBTQI+ people and protectors of the freedom of all minorities? /s (Believe it or not, this is what people on reddit will tell you when you point out that Azov are Neonazis)

Similarly to the fucked up, twisted irony that descendants of the Holocaust were modern pioneers of settler-colonialism and ethnic cleansing in Palestine, it's completely and utterly fucked that Eastern Europe has fallen so deeply into the grip of fascism. It's true that the Ukrainians were treated somewhat differently out of pragmatic considerations by the Nazis, but they were still considered 'Untermenschen'.
It's especially galling when the Ukraine was the economically best off part of the Soviet Union, and center of incredible culture, science, technology. But you don't see these fucks praising an iota of what was unequivocally the best time to be alive in Ukrainian history. Because they don't care about the quality of life of ordinary people. They're predatory, nihilistic death-cultists who should be wiped from the face of the earth.
History often has a sick sense of humor.
Fuck all Nazis, regardless of country. That being said, "denazification" was a disgusting lie told by an imperialist who has plenty of Nazi's living in his own country to deal with so he could commit cultural genocide.

What I don't get is why the GOP is siding with Russia? I'm dumb, shouldn't they be supporting Ukraine?
Anything to be seen as contrarian to liberals, even if the issue is non-partisan. Culture war at any cost.
They're kinda divided on the issue between the establishment neocons and the MAGA faction
