No hes right lmao. There is no comparison to be made.

[–] Fawkes@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Why? Where does the analogy fall apart, specifically? Is there no comparison because they are literally just different countries and the year is different?

Does putin have concentration camps set up where Ukrainians are used as slave labor and then liquidated and then sent up a chimney?

Or was he responding to a buildup of NATO forces along the border and Ukraine killing ethnic Russians within Ukraine?

The allies in WW2 didn't fight because Hitler was putting people in concentration camps.

The allies in WWII were extremely war weary from WWI and waited until they were forced to fight. The "allies" now want to use Ukraine to the last man to try and degrade Russia as much as they can, because war makes them money.

I'm not arguing with you, I'm making fun of your willful inability to understand an analogy

[–] Nonconfrontational@lemmy.ml -4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think a much better comparison to Hitler using a contemporary figure is Nenatyahu 🤷

Well, Netanyahu has never invaded the Sudetenland, so I'm going to pretend to not understand your analogy at all since it's not exactly the same?

Were we not referencing the genocide, lol?

are those ghosts of killed russians within Ukraine in the room right now?

Wow blatant disregard for the murder of ethnic Russians from a .world account? Shocker.

Not a big fan of history?
