it's very dumb because it's obviously a shit situation and like any normal human person i wish it wasn't happening but at the same time, ukraine's banderite government absolutely ensured that it would happen by outright encouraging legions of paramilitary nazis to do pogroms in addition to their own direct efforts to do ethnic cleansing through policy. but to look at russia as a country operating under its own rational self interests while also standing up for a targeted group of people who would otherwise have no international support would mean considering russia as one of many countries in the world and not a cartoon supervillain.
