    Even if we accept that Euromaidan was a CIA-backed coup, which I do not, the Zelenskyy government was not elected immediately after that. A different government was, and Zelenskyy beat them at the next election election

    Banning all 11 opposition parties is literally what fascists do.

    Banning parties for literal wartime treason is not fascism. You’re doing the equivalent of “fascists drink water, therefore drinking water is fascist”. They also were not even slightly close to “all opposition parties”.

    Yes, there are fascists in Ukraine. I bet they’d be a lot fucking easier to deal with if the Russian military wasn’t invading. If those fascists want to get themselves killed fighting imperialists then that’s fine by me. Considering one of Russia’s best forces has been Wagner - where did that name come from I fucking wonder - then sometimes they’re literally just killing each other. I am not about to throw the other forty million Ukrainians under the bus because of them, just as I would not advocate for America and China to beat the shit out of Russia over the existence of Wagner.

    Nazis are an existential threat to the Russian state as they have demonstrated by allying with NATO and causing a coup to the former elected president. That is why Russia has to denazi Ukraine.

    Literally the American government talking about terrorism. You are doing the same thing. A few thousand Ukrainian shitheads are not able to destroy Russia.
