No, Ukrainians did. Including the existing parliament, which made a vote. No one "handpicked" the parliament, which had been already elected in 2012. And then the people elected the new president, Poroshenko. Just several weeks later after the extremely short interim presidency of this "handpicked" Turchynov (until then speaker of the parliament, who was supposed to be a compromise candidate against the uncompromising EU stance - this is why this "fuck the EU" quote). And then years later they elected another president, fiercely rival to Poroshenko (who presented Zelensky as a Russian puppet btw). Elected new and different parties meanwhile too. Not just practically only 2 as in America for hundreds of years now. And banned all the communist/socialist parties and organisations, also by a parliamentary vote. Someone lied to you, you believed these lies, and then called me "fucking moron".

America won't ever ban leftist organisations like Ukraine did, even during the Cold War you didn't. And your pathetic nationalists will continue to be humiliated in the streets by just Antifa junkies, instead of riding tanks and killing worshippers of Lenin. The activity that you oppose and I support.
