The Ukrainian people didn't bring the war upon themselves. They are a puppet state for greater powers. They have little control over their own country. America/NATO is more responsible than any Ukrainian.
By that logic, the CIA coup never would have happened if we Americans had fought harder to have a less corrupt government. I get what you are saying, but this line of thinking ends up outsourcing blame for things the ruling class does onto the plebes.
I wouldn't say sat by. A lot of people resisted for a while. The problem was cutting through the lies, bullshit, and misdirection and over coming repression. That continues to this day.

The CIA coup that installed zelensky absolutely would never have succeeded if the people had fought it.

I agree. The American people sat by and permitted a takeover.
