    No tankie worth their salt would say it’s a good thing, lol. Being anti-NATO doesn’t immediately mean someone is pro-Putin.

          Killing Nazis isn’t bad, allying with them before being betrayed was. Killing Nazis in self-defense isn’t genocide, Holodomor was.

            So by those rules you imply the whole west is genocidal and Nazist?

            • USA: genocide of it’s poor, black and indigenous population (by both violence and forced poverty), anti-immigrant policies, police violence, and support for right-wing coups over the world, with Ukraine being the most notable among the recent ones
            • Canada: genocide of indigenous population, forced castration, support for right-wing coups
            • France: anti-immigrants, support for right-wing coups, exploitation and genocide of Africans
            • Australia: see USA, except for being a direct financial contributor to right-wing coups (but supporting them nonetheless)

            Every western power is genocidal and imperialist, and most crises currently ongoing are way worse than that tired example you gave. Do you just care if the suffering population is white?

            Also, about allying with Nazis: after WW2, who brought home Nazi high officials and gave them positions of power in their own countries again? USA and UK, if you don’t remember.
