Oh shit I didn't know they gave it a glorious sounding name. I guess fascists didn't have anything to do with it and then immediately making a Nazi war criminal a national hero with a holiday on the first day of every year. Fuck I didn't know you were going to post entire wikipedia articles with the name of the thing you googled to find it.

I guess when you overthrow the democratically elected leader of a country and then immediately start passing laws to marginalize his biggest voting bloc it's fine as long as you call the coup something patriotic.

Yeah. Your arguments (i.e. using multiple question marks so as to mug to the audience) are pretty fucking shameful.

whether or not they broke a cease fire has no bearing on whether past or future invasions of their country are justified

Baby brain

It was leaning in the direction of the West

Are you just stupid, or are you deliberately lying right here? Yanukovych was couped precisely because he WASN'T leaning towards the west. Did he flee to Poland when your fascists were threatening his life?

launching missile strikes at civilians?

If you don't want your civilians to be hit by rocket fire then you shouldn't use them as human shields. And you shouldn't support a regime that deliberately puts its own citizens in harms way to score propaganda points.

I, uh, do not think you're going to get very far trying to claim the (if you prefer) 2014 Ukrainian revolution was some kind of Nazi plot. I don't really feel the need to engage further on this, I'll simply say: you are wrong.

Baby brain

Oh good, now we're doing this.

Yanukovych was couped precisely because he WASN’T leaning towards the west

Yeah, because there was a significant chunk of Ukraine that wanted to integrate more with the West while Yanukovych was a lot more hesitant. Like I said, there were two paths they could go on.

If you don’t want your civilians to be hit by rocket fire then you shouldn’t use them as human shields

This is, uh, a fucking disgraceful argument to make. Yeah you found one example of where the Ukrainian military got a little too close to civilians. Now how about the rest of them?

UN investigations have concluded the invading Russian forces have committed many types of attacks against civilians which constitute war crimes.

A few samples from the article:

The Commission’s evidence shows that in areas that came under their control, Russian authorities have committed wilful killings of civilians or persons not involved in fighting (hors de combat), which are war crimes and violations of the right to life. [...]

The Commission established a pattern of widespread unlawful confinement in areas controlled by Russian armed forces, targeting broad categories of men, women and children. Confinement in dedicated facilities across Ukraine and in the Russian Federation was accompanied by consistent methods of torture against certain categories of persons by Russian authorities.

The Commission found numerous instances of rape and sexual and gender-based violence committed by Russian authorities as they undertook house-to-house searches in localities that came under their control and during unlawful confinement...

And yes, they did find some Ukrainian war crimes were committed, but not on the same scale:

The Commission also documented a small number of violations committed by Ukrainian armed forces, including likely indiscriminate attacks and two incidents qualifying as war crimes, where Russian prisoners of war were shot, wounded and tortured.

You said that breaking peace treaties isn't a valid justification for starting a war

This is after I already said you exhausted my patience with extremely stupid shit you said earlier

Why do you feel like your opinion is worth hearing if you spend zero time informing yourself to have one?
