Just isolate them and let their economy implode will do the job for us. Those oligarchs aren't going to like being stuck in Russia and having all of their toys taken away. |
Read up before posting. This is sheer ignorance. |
I agree. I wish he'd do more, come down harder on Putin. |
WW3 is an economic war with Russia. And it’s working. Once the billionaires lose hope, Putin has as much power as Ben Shapiro. |
And Trump supporters chanted “Jews will not replace us!” Stalin’s forces opposed Hitler and needed no armbands to deport hundreds of thousands of Jews to brutal slave labor camps in the east. There’s anti Semitism in all Slavic countries but Ukraine is making real progress. A Jewish candidate won an overwhelming victory in the last Presidential election. |
The world needs a hero like Zelensky. He's in mortal danger every second, yet he stays in Kiev and defends his country. I wish him well and victory over the Russians. |
Stalin literally defeated Hitler. What the hell is wrong with you ahistorical dullards? Also, Hitler and the Nazis hated and gassed Slavs, so a Slavic Nazi makes as much sense as a Jewish or Roma Nazi. And Richard Spencer led the chants you were talking about. And some of the same American Neo Nazis you’re talking about have immigrated to former Soviet republics like Ukraine where there are large contingents of hard core, unrepentant Neo Nazis. There aren’t just rednecks who tell off color jokes in these countries. They are filled with violent Neo Nazi extremeists who want to kill Jews, Slavs, and other races and ethnicities they think are less pure. Richard Spencer voted for Biden and has a Ukrainian flag as his avatar on Twitter. https://www.newsweek.com/white-nationalist-richard-spencer-votes-joe-biden-hell-libertarian-ideology-1544572?amp=1 But please lecture me about how the people who defeated and were sent to concentration camps by the actual Nazis are the real Nazis in this situation. Not the paramilitary division that flies Nazi flags and wants to exterminate Slavs. And here is the New York Times, not Fox News, reporting on how European Nazi cells are flocking to Ukraine. This is from two days ago. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/25/world/europe/militias-russia-ukraine.html |
Don't know what you and PP are bickering about, but presence of Nazi cells in a country doesn't mean the country supports it. Look at the U.S. white supremacy groups. Living large and thriving. |
I don't like Putin or the Russians. But at the same time, the Russians haven't trashed our cities, opened our borders to millions of illegals, passed out billions to the indolent or attempted to brainwash our kids. |
You're already plenty brainwashed, yourself. |
Russia has its own big neo-Nazi problem. This is NOT about de-Nazification. |
The Ukraine literally rolled a Neo Nazi paramilitary group, the Azov Battallion, into their National Guard. So yes the country supports it. It’s like saying if the US Military had a division made up exclusively of Aryan Nation gang members that the US doesn’t support white supremacy. This is different than having some racists in your ranks. Again, Ukraine has a Neo Nazi division in its National Guard that wants to exterminate non Aryans. |
Do they have a Neo Nazi division in their military like the Azov Battalion? I’m pretty sure there are white racists in most Western countries militaries. That isn’t the same thing as having an entire Neo Nazi division in your military. |

Putin is the one who’s made your side impossible to defend right now. In the long run, I think people who live there should decide what borders are where. If ethnic Russians or others in Eastern Ukraine have problems with the government of Ukraine, then I guess we should help people resolve their differences, if anyone wants our help. If they do a better job of making their case, and there are really terrible abuses, maybe the EU, the U.S., the UN or NATO could help. But, right now, Russia isn’t just surgically attacking one neo-Nazi stronghold. It’s waging all-out war against the equivalents of Charlottesville and Chevy Chase, and threatening to nuke us. It could be a lot more persuasive if it at least took nukes off the table. |
