Last I checked, what actually happened was that Ukraine was plunged into a civil war after US ran a coup in 2104 that overthrew the democratically elected government.
Russia was invited into the conflict by LPR and DPR which it recognized independence of. This follows the precedent NATO set in Yugoslavia where it recognized breakaway regions and intervened on their behalf.
I don't need to edit anything, the LPR and DPR were every bit as legitimate as the regions that broke away from Yugoslavia. What exactly are you claiming is the difference between the two scenarios?
Ukraine was formed by USSR. Are you just utterly historically illiterate?
The discussion is about LPR and DPR regions not some abstract notion of Ukraine.
You're just engaging in sophistry here. LPR and DPR are two well defined regions of the current state known as Ukraine. This is exactly the same situation as Yugoslavia. Every argument you've made equally applies to regions of Yugoslavia that separated. Russia just followed NATO precedent intervening on the behalf of the regions whose independence was recognized by Russia. You can keep doing mental gymnastics here all you like, but that's the reality of the situation.
What are you even talking about here, you're saying there is no history of the people who were part of Yugoslavia?
The only one uncritically accepting imperialist propaganda here is you buddy. You're the one who is supporting literal self described fascist. Maybe do some self reflection on that.
You're just showing complete and utter ignorance of Slavic history here. However, even in your ramblings you admit that people currently living in LRP and DPR (which you evidently can't spell even), are predominantly of Russian ethnicity and hence want to be part of Russia.
You very clearly support a fascist regime that took power in a violent coup in Ukraine in 2014. Here's western media reporting on your friends
and here's what they've been up to since 2014 as even CNN reported at the time
You're a fash simp plain and simple.
you openly ally with literal fascists, I have nothing more to say to you
No, Ukraine was invaded because of NATO expansion. In fact, Stoltenberg has now publicly acknowledged that Putin made clear to NATO in a draft treaty before the war that it could avert it if NATO agreed not to keep enlarging. But NATO rejected the offer.

So maybe stop lying and stop supporting the fascist regime in Ukraine that your government installed there in a violent coup.
These are the people you are allied with, and if that doesn't give you a pause then what else is there to say about you as a person https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TojapQRUhzs
Repeating nonsense over and over isn't going to make it true baby Goebbels.
You're literally the one who is supporting actual overt fascists here. I love how you still haven't even acknowledged this fact. You are utterly morally bankrupt. Maybe go do a bit of self reflection on the fact that your views perfectly align with people who tattoo themselves in swastikas.
Last I checked the wagner group isn't part of the Russian government, but keep on lying since that's all you've been doing here this whole time. Show me a single actual Russian government official who claims to be a fascist. Meanwhile, entire Ukrainian political elite are openly fascist as well as all your nazi friends in US who support them. I've provided you with plenty of sources clearly showing this to be the case. Ukraine doesn't have some fascists, it's run by a fascist regime, and the fact that you won't even acknowledge this says everything I need to know about you as a person. Zelensky being Jewish doesn't mean anything. Next, thing you'll tell me Israel isn't a fascist apartheid state because it's run by Jews. You are so lost.
You are allied with literal self described fascists and you openly champion their cause.
They're a PMC, and fascism isn't the ideology of the PMC. Meanwhile, official battalions like azov are openly fascist, and fascists are part of the actual government in Ukraine. The fact that you keep trying to equate the two shows that you're an utterly morally bankrupt liar.
Also, nowhere does Putin advocate for fascism. Stop lying. I know what fascism is, but either you don't or you just lie. And I'm done talking to you nazi. Bye.
