    For all the other folks reading this, allow me to translate:

    I am incapable of or unwilling to identify systemic issues when those issues are inconvenient to my narrative

      Besides, making generalisations about an entire country of people or having the mindset of “anyone who disagrees with me on anything is evil” just sews devision…

      The people are not the bad guys (generally) it’s typically the politicians (who we all know most of them are liars)

        I will go out on a limb and say that anyone who holds a Nazi flag is a bad guy, as is anyone who defends them. Nazis are ontologically evil, there is nobody with Nazi iconography that is a “good guy”. You included, making excuses for Nazis makes you one of them

          I wasn’t making excuses for Nazis, even seeing that foul flag infuriates me…

          I had been saying that these people in the image paint innocent Ukrainians in a bad light, because obviously not all Ukrainians are Nazis

        After Ukraine did an ethnic cleansing of Russians in their borders. Guess you think that’s a good thing too, since you’ve already been established clearly as a Nazi sympathizer, it makes sense that you would also be a genocide denier

          I was uninformed about the Ukrainian gov’t killing Russians in Ukraine’s borders.

          I am NOT a Nazi sympathiser. I find it awful how everyone takes anything someone says to extremes… classic: “I like waffles” “oh, so you hate pancakes” thing…

          Generalising people like this isn’t helpful, and just causes arguments and accusations. Especially when someone is uninformed and then gets yelled at.

        Is it ethical to stand by and do nothing while your neighboring sister country is murdering their own citizens for speaking a slightly different dialect than the their national language
