King should STFU about anything other than writing books.
Most likely- I had no idea who it is....But instead of admitting hes ignorant of the subject, he pretensiously, disingenuously feigns interest and knowledge.
>> Only if Trump also brought them into his government...which would only be true if you think Bannon is a ‘white supremascist’. I don’t think he is. <<
A-HA! And there’s the POINT! Poroshenko is a villain... Zelenskyy is NOT!
“Poroshenko is a villain... Zelenskyy is NOT!”
So Zelensky is not a villain because he didn’t bring in the Nazis, just left them there in his government?
Interesting standard to hold him by.
Libtards will fall for anything 🤪
>> Most likely- I had no idea who it is....But instead of admitting hes ignorant of the subject, he pretensiously, disingenuously feigns interest and knowledge. <<
True. My point is not that Stephen King is not a blowhard, but only that this story does not add to any evidence that King is an anti-semite or a Nazi, or that he secretly regards Zelenskyy as either.
>> So Zelensky is not a villain because he didn’t bring in the Nazis, just left them there in his government? <<
Poroshenko has not been “left there” in Zelenskyy’s government. But even if there are villans in Zelenskyy’s government, he’s not a villain if he doesn’t approve of there villainy. For instance, villains abounded in the U.S. government in spite of Trump. Does this mean someone should bomb the shit out of every U.S. city to rid the U.S. of any trace of Trump?
They’re all a bunch of greedy, crooked, grifting slimebags. Including Zelensky.
“Earlier this year, Canadian Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland expressed her solidarity with Ukraine while marching alongside a group of Ukrainian neo-Nazi Banderites. She was photographed holding up a red and black scarf tied to the Banderite movement.”
Yeah, her grandpa was an actual Nazi in WWII.
He run on bring peace to Ukraine and betrayed his promise.
His abandoned doing what is the best interests of his people and allowed his countrymen and country to be destroyed in a war that absolutely preventable.
“Does this mean someone should bomb the shit out of every U.S. city to rid the U.S. of any trace of Trump?”
Trying to tear down Trump by equating him with the government of Ukraine, which has NAZI UNITS operating in its military won’t get far with me.
As to your question - if Zelensky’s government is unwilling, or more likely unable, to rid his government of these Nazis who are terrorizing innocent civilians, then yes, he’ll get some help in it, and it is warranted as far as I’m concerned. Should have done the same to Germany in the early/mid 1930s, also.
That's absurd. The Neo-Nazis and Ukrainian nationalists have total control over Zelenksy. And, whatever control they don't have over him, "the liberal world order" does.
Any sane leader of Ukraine would have rejected NATO membership and pushed to implement the Minsk Agreement that Ukraine signed off on that would have ended the eight-year civil war. Donetsk and Lugansk would have the same autonomy states in the US have but would have remained part of Ukraine.
Zelensky caved to the neo-Nazi/Ukrainian nationalist element and to "the liberal world order" and its Ukrainian citizens suffering.
“Not to mention we have an entire nest of neo-Nazi Banderites right here.”
If you think there are neo-nazis on the site, name them and tell the mods. Mods here ban neo-nazis quite ruthlessly. So make your case and let’s see.
Otherwise, you’re just spewing propaganda as usual.
“Ukraine, which has NAZI UNITS operating in its military”
Like Russia has NAZI UNITS operating in its military?
>> That’s absurd. The Neo-Nazis and Ukrainian nationalists have total control over Zelenksy. <<
What Neo-Nazis have any control over Zelensky?
And what do you mean by “Ukrainian nationalists”? You use that term like it’s some horrible thing, but does it mean anything other than people who don’t want to be subsumed by a foreign power? You sound like a European One-World socialist the way you say that... and in the next breath, you say, “”And, whatever control they don’t have over him, “the liberal world order” does.”
Your literally accusing Zelenskyy of polar-opposite positions... like a Soviet bot.
Russia outlawed Nazis in 2001, so there are no known units in its military. Ukraine didn’t outlaw them, but will soon have it done for them.
I have no problem admitting that is true. My problem is, Russia also has neo-Nazis who murder Russian citizens with Putin’s ok, but you all just ignore it.
My support is with the people. Not the president of Ukraine.
“Russia outlawed Nazis in 2001, so there are no known units in its military.”
BWAHAHAHAHA! You’ll believe anything won’t you?
Wagner Group are Neo-Nazis and Putin’s go to mercenaries to do his dirty work, including in Ukraine. Then there is the Spartan Brigade, also Neo-Nazis, and fighting for Russia in Ukraine since 2014. So that means there are at least twice as many Neo-Nazi outfits fighting for Putin as there are for Ukraine.
They would KILL him or threaten another revolution if he had agreed to enforced the Minsk Agreement or didn't agree to continue the civil war on Donbas.
Yes, they have that much power and they are bankrolled by oligarchs.

Kolomoisky funds and directs a large private militia that has been helping the Kiev government fight against the pro-Russian separatists in eastern Ukraine. Militias like his — and there are dozens of them — are a source of deep concern to analysts who believe they could threaten Ukraine's long-term stability.
###
Kolomoisky, an oligarch who is also the governor of Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk region, is a significant backer of the pro-Kiev private militias fighting in the country's east. He funds the Dnipro Battalion, a private army that, according to the Wall Street Journal, has 2,000 battle-ready fighters and another 20,000 in reserve. Newsweek reported that Kolomoisky has funded other militia groups, as well.
The conflict has empowered pro-Ukraine militias like Kolomoisky's because the Ukrainian military was too weak to fight the separatist insurgency on its own. When Russia annexed Crimea in early 2014, Ukraine had only about 6,000 combat-ready troops. The paramilitary "volunteers" bolstered the fighting forces, funded in part by private donations from wealthy oligarchs. Bands of politically motivated thugs, dating back to before the conflict, grew into more substantial militarized battalions. There are now an estimated 30 "volunteer" militias fighting the separatists in eastern Ukraine.
