Ukraine is the hot new thing.
I get it.
The same people who went full-blown Branch COVIDIAN have now moved on to full-blown BRANCH UKRAINIAN-WAR. Eh, that doesn’t work quite as well (a little clunky) but it still sorta works. Far too many people are looking for a movement to define them as important or meaningful or deep … so they are easily persuaded into going along with whatever narrative, message, or marketing our pals on the Left can come up with. They’ve gone from scolding people for not protecting grandma to attacking their fellow Americans if aren’t all in on Ukraine and war, going so far as to call them Putin-sympathizers. They’re melodramatic little things, ain’t they? WELP, the ironic piece about all of this Ukrainian sunflower/flag emoji movement is that there are actual and literal Nazis in Ukraine.
So in essence, does that mean Lefties are defending Nazis? Even NBC has admitted there are issues with Nazis there:
Oops… Another one from NBC News…

I did NA-ZI that coming? Too soon?
From NBC News:
But even though Putin is engaging in propaganda, it’s also true that Ukraine has a genuine Nazi problem — both past and present. Putin’s destructive actions — among them the devastation of Jewish communities — make clear that he’s lying when he says his goal is to ensure anyone’s welfare. But important as it is to defend the yellow-and-blue flag against the Kremlin’s brutal aggression, it would be a dangerous oversight to deny Ukraine’s antisemitic history and collaboration with Hitler’s Nazis, as well as the latter-day embrace of neo-Nazi factions in some quarters.
Way to go, Lefties and Democrats! ACES.
They are losing control of the narrative

Heck, Reuters wrote about it five years ago:
Many of the National Militia’s members come from the Azov movement, one of the 30-odd privately-funded “volunteer battalions” that, in the early days of the war, helped the regular army to defend Ukrainian territory against Russia’s separatist proxies. Although Azov uses Nazi-era symbolism and recruits neo-Nazis into its ranks, a recent article in Foreign Affairs downplayed any risks the group might pose, pointing out that, like other volunteer militias, Azov has been “reined in” through its integration into Ukraine’s armed forces. While it’s true that private militias no longer rule the battlefront, it’s the home front that Kiev needs to worry about now.
So basically, Biden and the Democrats are funding a country ripe with Nazism which would be HILARIOUS if they weren’t using OUR tax dollars to do it. Yay.
