More likely, how will we react if Russia sends troops and weapons to Venezuela and Cuba. Or Bolivia (75 of 130 seats in lower house), Ecuador (49 of 137), Nicaragua (75 of 92, Peru (42 of 130), Uruguay (42 of 99). Yes, these are "socialist" parties, but there's plenty of room to make trouble.
That’s about the same as a black separatist going through the South like Sherman and getting revenge for lynchings done by klansmen in the 1940s.
The question is, are they being Nazis now? If not, then why not get revenge on Germany while you’re at it. They’re mostly harmless boobs now, but back in the day their grandfathers wore Nazi insignia.
It’s a bad argument.
Aside from that, it’s ignorant of the real history of Ukraine. Jews were never allowed to settle in Russia proper. They were confined to the Pale of Settlement, largely in Ukraine, Bialarussia, etc. Never in Russia.
When Stalin instituted collectivization in Ukraine, putting all the peasantry in collective farms, sending the kulaks to Siberia in penance for their prosperity, and appropriating the Ukrainian harvest for distribution in the big cities, he starved to death between 3 and 4 million Ukrainians. And whom did he send to do the dirty work, Jewish communists, so they would bear the brunt of any backlash when it came.
And come it did. The Ukrainians looked to Hitler’s Wehrmacht as liberators from this genocidal program, and cheerfully helped in the persecution and eventual extermination of the Jews. In the end, they turned against Hitler, but at first he was their hero, thanks to the abuses of Stalin, who viciously manipulated Jewish true believers into holding the bag while he got all the loot.
The Jews were victimized, and so were the Ukrainians. And this poor idiot of a Jewish pro-Russian is being victimized, too. Putin is just Stalin lite, and he’s cynically manipulating yet another Jew into doing his dirty work for him, just like Stalin did. From the Czars to the Commissars, Russia has been the nemesis of both Jews and Ukrainians. This will not end well.
In the last 3 years, Ukraine has had a Jewish president and prime minister. They aren’t all Galician Nazis
