On its face, Putin’s smear is absurd, not least because Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is Jewish and has said that members of his family were killed during World War II.
Article from before all the nazi stuff got memory holed in favor of chanting "Slava Ukraini" while NATO cheered on forcing a generation of conscripts to fight a losing war to push up arms dealers financials.
That article is giving evidence that zelensky isn't a Nazi. While Nazis may be fascist, not all fascists are Nazis. What you've linked isn't supporting evidence of anyone saying the quote in the op.
I'm not saying they are the same. I'm laughing about someone trying to make the argument that there is a special significance of difference in the context of this meme.
Ukraine is currently run by far-right nationalists that took power after the Euromaidan coup in 2014, who uphold far-right nationalist and Nazi collaborator Stepan Bandera. Ukraine itself has been, since 2014, propped up by the US Empire to help secure its interests in the region, similar to how it treats Israel.
I get that you're trying to make a joke here, but you'd be amazed at the Biden connections to Ukraine, and how many US funded bio-chemical plants are/were in Ukraine.
Bro Trumps campaign advisor was directly involved in the political fuckery that caused the maidan and started direct Russian intervention and subsequent invasion.

Can't really take you seriously. Fascists and Nazis are both bad, but you're are idiotic or ignorant to say they are the same.

Yes, it's a dogs vs poodles thing. Shouldn't be so hard to understand.
culprit@lemmy.ml · 5 pts · 296d
Yes, all poodles are dogs. Venn diagrams are fun. So the meme works just fine.

Yea and not all dogs are poodles. I think you got the order confused further up.

The meme mentions 'fascist', and all nazis are fascists. Is this so hard?

It's called a strawman argument, it's quite common sadly.

They've been occupied and bombed pretty much the whole time what the fuck do you actually expect to happen here guy?
Blame Russia for invading a sovereign nation they agreed to stay the fuck out of like 4 decades earlier not the country they're invading.

Sounds like Zelensky isn't such a great leader then, if we're having to resort to this kind of blame deflection

No deflection is seeing a legit question and going "you're deflecting!"
What is the proper reaction a "good" leader should have had.
