I never said the original poster made a general statement about the people, just the country being called a shithole, you came in and added the "can't call neo-nazi's trash anymore", a ridiculous statement I never made. In the context of my response being about how he refers to the country of Ukraine, how can your sarcastic complaint about me not be seen as referring to the the people? That's why I said not every Ukrainian is a Nazi.
My comment was pretty particular about the "your shithole" part. I don't care what negative thing he calls Banderites, and you'll see from my previous comments elsewhere in this thread I have no love for those who adore him.
Also I find it ridiculous you all are very happy to point to problematic groups in one country, yet systematically ignore it in another. Double standards like this is why I have difficulties not seeing the bias at play in these discussions.
