They hate Russian-speaking Ukrainians too. Even little kids. They also have swastikas so they definitely are dyed in the wool neo-nazis.
The feeling of hatred is mutual. Ukraine is a cleft country. Western Ukraine where the 'Nazis' are mostly from is far more influenced by Western Civilization historically, and western Ukrainians, Nazis or not, don't like Russia, period. I mean, people not liking Russia or people friendly to Russia is hardly unique to some dudes that like Bandera, some of which are genuinely Nazis, some of which are not. Russians are assholes.
It is possible to not like a people but not kill them.
I don't particularly take a side in the dispute between them as such. It is a product of centuries old processes that are difficult to understand by an outsider. Similar to the Balkans or Northern Ireland. But my point really is that it is far less to do with Nazism than local hatreds. Russia's neighbors usually hate them. Nazis that hate their own governments but are further away from Russia can sometimes even kinda like Putin. Which is to say this is a lot more complicated than the usual canned denunciation of 'Nazis'. All I'm saying really.
The point I am making is it is reasonable to point out the severe hypocrisy of left-wingers in this country for 'Standing with Ukraine' which is in fact...full of neo-nazis when they try to vilify regular Americans as nazis.
You're a moron. And one of the least interesting things to be taken from the war in Ukraine is that 'neo-Nazis' need to be slaughtered. In saying that you just echo the canned talking points of global shitlibbery.
