Zelenskyy didn't cancel elections, though. They're legally forbidden in Ukraine during martial law, which is only still in effect because Russia is still invading. If anyone canceled Ukrainian elections, it's Putin because the choice for Ukraine was either submit and lose elections permanently or resist and enact martial law, losing them temporarily.
Yeah, not every nation wants to deal with securing elections in an active war zone, especially against an opponent heavily incentivized and willing to put their thumb on the scale however they can.
Yeah not every nation wants to do that. Some nations are fascist dictatorships.
Put that right next to 'two things can be true at once' in the library of trying to conjure thoughts from nothing but pure passive voice.
Sorry you're not allowed to have a democracy because someone might try to convince you to vote against me.
Love me, I'm a liberal.
I can't believe you're genuinely this unimaginative. Do you really think Russia would limit themselves to propaganda? Do you think Russia respects the democratic process enough to not interfere in an election where getting the right leader might mean submission, annexation, and victory? The same Russia that was the origin for multiple bomb threats on polling locations during the US 2024 election? The same Russia that's constantly fraught with internal accusations of election fraud? That Russia?
This is hilarious especially when it comes to Ukraine. History began in 2022 I guess.
It's also funny with Russia lmao. Yeah it's definitely the russians that are the issue when it comes to election interference lmao.
And that's why democracy is for another time.
I mean... If the election has a really high chance of not genuinely reflecting the will of the people because an outside force is guaranteed to attempt to interfere with the election... Yeah, it's kinda not the time because you're going to choose based on the will of the invader, not the will of the people.
If you cared about the will of the people you wouldn't have violently overthrown their government and installed a regime of literal nazis to murder and suppress the population you pretend to weep for.
But then again if you cared about the people of Ukraine AT ALL you wouldn't be okay with them living under a nazi regime LET ALONE happily giving those nazis absolute power to decide when and if they ever give up absolute power.
So like all right wingers, I have to wonder. Where are you on the evil/stupid continuum? Do you espouse your views because you are fully self aware as a devoted nazi partisan? Or are you tied for the dumbest person to have ever lived?
I've seen a lot of claims of Nazis in Ukraine, and to be totally fair, there have been pictures of disturbing large groups around symbols, but nobody ever seems able to muster any genuine evidence there's a systemic problem. Everything anyone has ever been able to show me has attempted to make big leaps to stretch scant evidence into more than it is. I'm open to being proven wrong, but the last several times I offered the chance, I got the same load of half assed bullshit. I've tried several times to give the claim a chance, but it increasingly sounds like a tiny grain of truth blown up into a mountain of Russian butthurt.
Oh so we should talk about this different thing now?
You're the one who made the claim the Ukrainians are living under a Nazi regime. I basically said I've seen evidence that there are Ukrainian Nazis in existence, but nobody can ever muster evidence that it's systemic or anything other than a few groups that, while disturbingly large, are nowhere near big enough to represent the majority. I've tried to invite proof several times, but I'm increasingly convinced it's bullshit.
I see so you've decided to take a violent tangent away from the conversation that made you uncomfortable and decided to impose this new conversation where you challenge me to convince you of something you adamantly refuse to be convinced of and brag about how your opaque standards of proof have never been met.
So you're just kinda a piece of shit huh
Tangent? Your post was about Ukrainian Nazis. Let's look back at it.
I apparently don't care about them because I'm not resisting this Nazi regime that nobody can prove is anywhere NEAR extensive enough to qualify as an actual regime.
Again, I'm allegedly terrible for not caring about the alleged Nazis.
Basically a bunch of questioning if my tolerance of the Nazis is stupidity or evil.
So... You ranted about Ukrainian Nazis. That was the central focus of your post. I then claimed that while I have repeatedly tried to be open to the possibility, nobody can ever seem to muster evidence that it's anything more than a few relatively small groups, at least on a nation scale, being grossly exaggerated.
And then you act confused and treat me like I'm going off on a tangent to dodge some greater point, you absolute clown.
