why did PBS and the main outlets here give these figures an audience
Reddit is so desperate to big up Ukraine and the situation there - don't get me wrong innocent people are being killed, families are getting displaced -- but somehow we're supposed to just forget they have Nazis in their army.
Actual Nazis.
The State Department looks bad because they had people out here calling Putin ridiculous for saying he was fighting Nazis. It IS a ridiculous claim because he was NOT going into fight Nazis. This is an excuse for expansion and preventing Ukraine from ever entering NATO and trying to incorporate it back into Russia--but since we came out so strongly on this being dumb because their President is Jewish, now what is the US supposed to say?
Fox News will be out there next with segments on Ukrainian Nazis knowing full well they are anti semitic and racist themselves. The US should demand the Zelensky disband this Nazi unit, but it won't happen.
