definitely a nazi population in Ukraine

Yeah and this specific nazi population runs the government. And while I appreciate that we agree on there being nazis, the mainstream narrative until it became undeniable was that this is a Russian lie, one of many inconsistencies in western media coverage that makes me go hmmm.

Is the solution military invasion of the US, Canada, Poland, Germany, Russia, the UK, etc… etc…?

If an internal proletarian revolution proves unviable then yes, outside force might be required. Capitalist countries need to be liberated and deradicalized for the safety of all mankind.

And if not those countries why is Ukraine singled out for special treatment?

I apply the same standards to those other countries so this part doesnt apply. Nobody "gets" to be fascist, fascists just do fascist shit and the world either stops them or doesn't. Laws and norms are polite fictions and the bare fact of it is that everyone alive "gets" to do whatever nobody else stops them from doing.

And before you say “these other countries weren’t slaughtering their own people”

They are. They constantly are. They slaughter 114,000 of us every year just with forced medical neglct alone. Poverty, hunger, the commodification of medical care, crushing debt, endless wars, pollution, climate destruction, social atomization, mass surveilance, mass incarceration, austerity, privatization, militarized police brutality, all of these things are forms of mass violence knowingly perpetrated on us by the small class of rich pedophiles who decided back in 2014 to hijack Ukraine and try to crack open Russia with it, and now they're building camps for us too.

No, steadily is the word.

Because it’s several thousand days, tens of billions of dollars and what a million dead over projected estimates.

What estimates?

That's evidence of attrition

Yes, Russia had been using an attrition strategy for most of this war, using drones and shelling to exhaust their opponent's reserves of troops and equipment. The reason this has been working is that Russia can field more troops and is producing more equipment.

It’s Manchester United going 0-0 with an incredibly low ranking pre kindergarten team woke chanting about how close it was.

Then you'll have to forgive my confusion as to how and why the kindergarten team now fully controls one fifth of Man U

That doesn't make sense given that they've been steadily advancing. There's no substitute for munitions, and there's no hiding their scarcity. Also, the reason armies around the world, including the US and Ukraine, still field Cold War Era equipment is that apocalyptic stockpiles of it were made on both sides so it's abundant, dirt cheap and largely parts compatible with the equipment that replaced it.

"It's not true but also it's Russias fault for not just sitting back and doing nothing while ethnic Russians are slaughtered by Nazis on their border."

The lengths you people will go to DARVO an ethnic cleansing campaign by actual, seig heil-ass Nazis would have been shocking to me a few years ago, before I saw you all actively support another Holocaust.

Russia typically responds to Ukrainian drone attacks that cause significant civilian casualties by launching major missile attacks on Ukrainian cities.

So your response is to admit that Ukraine is typically doing it first, but still somehow come down on their side instead of just the rational human response of "war crimes are bad specifically because they lead to reprisals, and everyone needs to stop doing them but especially the side doing them first."
