    I mean in the case of Russia and Ukraine, they are both fascists. But if you want an example thats less controversial, the nazi invasion of fascist Hungary.

      Ukraine has fascists in the country, yes, just like every country in the world. In Russia the fascists are the ones in charge. Trying to draw an equivalence between the two to make Russia look like something other than a ruthless aggressor is a perfect example of fascists lying and deflecting.

        Zelenskyy literally said he wants Ukraine to be the Israel of Europe. There’s not much you can point to on domestic policy in Russia that hasn’t been implemented in Ukraine. Ukraine being controlled by a fascist billionaire (like Russia) doesn’t change that millions of regular people are paying the price for Russia’s invasion, which needs to be stopped with as little bloodshed as possible and the self-determination of the people in affected regions respected.
