They turn everything upside down as usual.
The only viable comparison here is of Russia with Nazi Germany. They attacked and invaded Ukraine NOT vice versa.
Other similarities between Russia and Nazi Germany include:
— having a fuhrer
— ousting of all international media
— one political party only (rest are phonies)
— thoughtcrimes
— total militarization of society
— external aggression
— all media belongs to state
— courts in complete subjugation to fuhrer
— ideology of national supremacy
@Vonzales the Donbas and Crimea have a long and convoluted history with Russia both before and after the Soviet Union. It's important for those who don't know much about the topic to understand that post-Soviet Russia unequivocally threw the first punch by interfering with Ukrainian sovereign elections in 2004, and kept punching by bringing undeclared soldiers into the Donbas, continuing to support and increase separatist activity, and then directly violating the Budapest Memorandum in 2014.
@Vonzales unfortunately as we've seen, theory and practice are two completely different things. The fact that Russia is a founding member of the UN Security Council and has tactical nukes exposes the extreme fragility of "international law and order" or bilateral and multilateral treaties. As long as dictatorial or authoritarian regimes exist in the world, coalitions of the largest nations must move to stop their worst excesses. This war is actually unprecedented in many ways in the modern era.
