Because those represent less than one percent of the country and armed forces. That is akin of me condemning and being anti-America because some antifa or commies serve in the military.
And because I know a bit more of context in their reason to invade. From shale gas pockets to oil to the history of Russia wanting the return to the soviet hegemony. They are also far, far, far worse in freedom of speech and freedom than any western ountry. Even Canada today. So I can never support a country like that.
But won't stop me from condemning companies like EA from pulling out of Russia, or the Olympics. If it was for dopping I would understand. But for this? No.
If Ukraine was full of nazis, it wouldn't have a Jewish president,. My position is more nuanced than just "left like? Right dislike!"
There is also the Chechnyans in the Russian army. Using that idea, one must also question those who support Russia for the Chechnyans involvement. But I do not. As they are as representative of Russians as azov is representative of Ukrainians. Aka.. Not at all.
there are claims of that battallion having upwards of 10-20% neonazis in their ranks, they also recruit from abroad. If these folks end up beating putin, who do you think will be in power, once those neonazis' battallions have won the battle?
Are you saying that russia is worse, or Ukraine is? Worse than canada? Idk. are they freezing the bank accounts of everoyne who protests their govt? maybe ca is a wee bit better. are you supporting him cuz hes a jew? would you support alljews? reportedly, wylenski or w/e didnt make a big deal of his religion until vlad attacked the country. is he truly part of that religion, or a political opporunist? certainly there were powergrabbers in history who would work with 'the enemy' in the case for jews, working wiht nazis, to gain gold/fame/or other enrichment for themselves. zelinksi is barring every man who's 18-60 from leaving the country. it sounds like he even wants innocents to die
yeah the companies thing is really dumb. no reason for it at all.
ukr isnt full of nazis, yet it has the only ARMED neonazi battallion on the planet (AFAIK) and they are supported with govt stipends and govt weapons.
there are some neonazis in the us, but none of them are offical goverment sanctioned groups, so there is nowhere else in the world to even point to a group totally similar to this one.
They commit violence in the streets, against romas, as the nazis did, and its hard to say with more power, they wouldn't abuse that too.
zelenski didnt make religion a big part of his identify before the attack, though. and supposedly the neonazi party only got 1-2% of the vote, but that doesnt change what an armed extremist group can do. 40 years ago, we funded bin ladden ffs, so youre not thinking in the future.
There is also the Chechnyans in the Russian army. Using that idea, one must also question those who support Russia for the Chechnyans involvement
yeah, they can be evil, do they make up 10% of the russian army? if not, how much of it??
neither army is representative of the civilians, but if youre going to give them milspec weapons, youre starting a further conflict the world will not come back from.
who do you think will be in power, once those neonazis' battallions have won the battle?
Considering their numbers do not reach that high. Then I think nothing. If they were as numerous, Zelensky would not be in power.
Are you saying that russia is worse, or Ukraine is? Worse than canada? I
Yes. Far worse. They are woke, and they are actively jailing people for 15 years and fines for spreading "fake news" . Canada, for all its faults hasn't reached that level yet.
are you supporting him cuz hes a jew? would you support all jews?
I have already explained my position as to why I support Ukraine multiple times in this forum.
Summarizing it, Russia has always had this desire of dominating the world. They failed with the nazis and their pact. They failed in the Cold War, and now they are trying again. They have been aggressors.
I will never support Russia, regardless of which country they invade. I hate the idea because the left supports Ukraine that one must support Russia. Just because the left chose not to jump the cliff doesn't mean you HAVE to jump the cliff.
Stop being pro-anti.
Want more context as to why I refuse to support Russia(besides their modern day policies)
and this(the guy skipped the part that the former president of Ukraine was trying to approach the EU, but he stopped once Putin had a talk with him. Which led to the protestS)

if not, how much of it??
Their numbers are exactly the same number as the Azov brigade you mentioned.
At least some good news, the first batch seems ok.
Hope we get Stinger Effect II
