I've got no problem with a patriot who straps up to defend his homeland, so long as he fights like a man. That's an honorable thing. But when you hide in maternity wards of hospitals or in pre-school buildings just so you can take advantage of the dead bodies you helped create for propaganda videos, you're no longer a "freedom fighter," you're a terrorist. Zelensky handing out automatic rifles to tens of thousands of untrained, non-uniformed civilians, and then using them as meat shields in front of military assets isn't honorable. It the act of a terrorist, and we shouldn't be defending him.

Edit: No, this doesn't mean I'm white knighting for Putin. It means what it says, that I oppose Zelensky's tactics. War is a terrible thing and the best solution is the one that ends the killing as fast as possible. Right now, that means Zelensky needs to recognize NATO's not going to do his fighting for him, and get his butt to the table to talk about how to come to some mutually agreeable terms with Putin. Think with his brains instead of his balls.
