1/ Just found out this hashtag #IStandWithPutin exists and it seems to be getting more traction.
Disgusting. I'm at a loss for words.
From quick look the people's main arguments are that the west has done similar peace keeping operations in other countries.
2/ Yes this is true 'western' countries have performed similar peace keeping operations in various countries.
But lets try and understand this argument.
Western countries killed people so now we should let Russia kill people????
What kind of logic is this???
3/ If you are against the actions of 'western' countries and their peace keeping operation then you should also be AGAINST Putin's 'peace' keeping operation in Ukraine.
4/ The other argument for the aforementioned disgusting hashtag is the Azov battalion. I have already mad a thread on this which will be linked in the replies but in short. In short:
Yes Azov is bad.
NO not all Ukrainians are Nazis or anywhere near.
