“Nazi-lite” to me would mean some discrimination against Jews,

The dominant ethnic hatred of Ukrainian nazis are Russians. What makes them literal nazis are their WW2 nostalgia, including war criminal heroes given national holidays.

The reason the conflict happened is because Russian troops invaded the Donbas and tried to take over the area by force.

US nazi coup of 2014, and persecutory policy, resulted in autonomy request from Donbas's regional governance. Russia was invited to help.

Ukrainians seem to just want to live in peace without Russia trying to kill them or subjugate them.

Ukrainians have been allowed to vote against nazi regime even in local elections. Nazi regime just wants the bribes to continue to flow until the last Ukrainian. Of all Russia's perfectly normal/reasonable conditions for peace, denazification is the one the West will never allow, because of how much we value, subjugate ourselves to, US empire's big lies. It's not just a massive moral failure in that our values are only demonic nazi gaslighting for US empire subjugation, but it is also a massive strategic failure in that Russia is forced to expand its military production/power very significantly because of reality of a war against it is fully understood by its people, while we just pretend nazi, or liberal supremacist (same result), warmongering evil is deserved. The dumb shit you say, doesn't carry through to economic collapse and military drafts, we can hope. But Carney's "Rupture, and stop supporting lies" speech has to follow up with calling out the big lies, instead of still sleep walking through a "force amplification mission against the real free world". The lie that Ukraine war we supported would cause Russia to collapse, made it a war on Europe, for stronger US capture of Europe with extortionist energy and weapons sales, while strengthening Russia, and permitting further fearmongering and weapons extortion of EU, as long as the lie is permanent.

Azov has had far-right connections. Russia has their own fighting units with far-right connections, like the Rusich Group. In neither case does that mean the government of either country is a Nazi government.

2014 Ukraine coup, had US put in power those from nazi political parties. Not from Maidan liberals. The nazi laws, and insulting holidays, make it a nazi government. The funding and support of nazi paramilitaries ethnic cleansing operations was merely an "international law loophole" for nazi regime to do nazi things. You're trying to say that "conservative ethnic supremacists" may be motivated to join national militaries, but then reactionary anti-fascist resistance such as Black Panthers or Hamas motivations, are also nazis. The structural integration into regimes as the paid sword of fascism makes all the difference in classification, as opposed to mere ethnic hatred motives of soldiers.

They seem to be complete fabrications, invented by the Kremlin to justify their imperialist invasion of Ukraine.

Kremlin spent 8 years pursuing peaceful resolution through Minsk accords, and are the side that have provided easy offramps to peace that only nazi evil clinging to nazification would reject. You cannot contort reality to deny this, and prosper. You diminish yourself and nation by tolerating the lies.
