They're not wrong. Azov have been far-right extremists since the beginning. But imagine if a foreign country invaded the US and gained a sizable stronghole. We'd be arming right-wing militias to repel the invaders too.
They're a help now, but Azov will be a problem in the future.

Yeah, that's a problem. It's almost as if liberalism enables fascism.
They're a help now
No they're fucking not. They're fucking fascists. On what planet are fascists "a help"?

Um, on Bizzaro World? Did you consider that, sweaty?
Intolerant anti-Nazi bigot OWNED.
No, you never arm nazis. Azov is worse than just a "right wing militia", they are actual blood and soil neo nazis. How many times that this have to backfire backfire before people realise arming Nazis is a terrible idea?
Also this ignores the fact that far right elements were essential in the 2014 coup taking place in Ukraine. The support of Nazi groups was needed to seperate Russia and Ukraine diplomatically. That's the whole reason "the West" has been arming and supporting them for close to a decade now.
But if we stop trying how will we know for sure it fails 100% of the time?

Who's "we"? Biden? You are saying Biden will arm Jan 6th rioters to repel the Chinese or Russians or whatever?
Also, brave Mujahideen etc etc

I can't wait for Azov to do another 9/11 
They could just be fed to the cannon...
Azov are Nazis, but...
Point of fact: the right wing militias in the US are already armed.
Okay, and?
Russia is the pressing threat. Throw Russia out first, and retake Crimea. Then deal with Azov fanatics. That's what triage is; you deal with the big thing first, and then the smaller things. You don't treat an amputated finger while someone is gushing blood from a severed carotid.
This play ruzzian propaganda so well. Just keep adding stories about nazis i ukraine and at the end, noone will be certain about whats true or not. Still, ofc there are nazis in ukraine, but that is true about all countries.
Sadly I'm still pretty sure the most damage here has been done by Ukraine itself:
Yes, of course there are some nazis in Ukraine. Sadly every country seem to have some fringe right-wing morons. And using them to fight Russia, especially in a time when the offcial army wasn't up to the task yet, was understandable.
But that's not the main problem. The main problem is doubt that Ukraine will be able to handle them at some point when it's necessary. And when -to paraphrase Ukraine's then ambassador to Germany for example in 2015- the answer to the question if they realize that this can become a problem down the road is: "No, you are lying to help Russian propaganda! There are and never in history were any right-wing groups in Ukraine!" that's a pretty big indicator that they won't manage that problem ever. Because acknowledging it exists would have been the required first step instead of spewing insane rants.
They were a movement that was an active militia (trained and armed) that took part in the elections and did not even get enough votes for a single seat in Parlaiment.
I'm not really sure what they're trying to raise as a specific issue here.
Azov are a part of the Ukrainian military. That's Ukraine's decision. If we give arms to Ukraine there's a good chance some of those arms will end up in the hands of Azov members.
There's not really any way to avoid that. We need to put diplomatic pressure on Ukraine to deal with the problem of far right extremists in their country (and, y'know, it would probably help if we were leading the way by doing more to deal with far right extremists in our own country), but abandoning them to the Russians just because they're not perfect paragons of progressive idealism isn't helping anything.
Bullshit propaganda supported by disingenuous supporters of this instance.
The Maple.... Propaganda?
Fuck off back to America
