"They had to invade! Ukraine forced them to!"

Great argument.

Sounds like the China fans with Taiwan. 'They actually want to be part of the PRC they just dont know it yet'

'Those ukrainians are basically already Russian so its fine'

This is a great answer if the question were "What are the false reasons Russia gave for attacking Ukraine?"

Lol the Jewish president elected by Nazis. Nazi party literally never broke like 6% of the vote in ukraine.

Do they realise they use the same exact excuse Hitler used to occupy czechoslovakia?

Your mistake was looking at anything related to lemmygrad

That's a lot of Copium.

More ethnic russians in Germany than in Ukraine, this is clearly an overreach by NATO

OG OP actually asked a good question. Aside from regional cultural claims and geopolitical military perks Ukraine also holds massive significance for its ports, grain production, and the oil pipeline that crosses from Russia to Western Europe.

Not condoning Russia's actions, from it, but if they had managed to get away with it they'd be in a vastly better position on the world's stage.

What a dumbass.

What... did I just read? 😳

There is no way this isn't sarcasm

~~Blah blah blah…~~

What being an agent for the Russian state on social media does to your brain.

ftfy

Funny considering that our former Wagner chef himself said that the whole 2014 pretext was bullshit. Also funny because one of the groups that Russia used since 2014 in that region is Rusich, a very obvious neonazi group. So Ukraine was fighting Nazis all along.

A post on Ask Lemmygrad by user Cyber Ghost titled "What are the reasons why Russia attacked Ukraine?"

Below is the comment by user @cfgaussian reading: "The Nazi Kiev regime attacked the ethnically Russian Donbass for eight years intending to commit genocide in their quest for an ethnically pure Ukraine and Russia finally came to their aid after it became clear that the Minsk agreements were never going to be honored. Also, NATO was turning Ukraine into a hyper militarized threat to the integrity and security of Russia itself. Refusal of the US and Europe to negotiate on a new inclusive security framework, refusal to stop NATO expansion eastward, and the relentless and violent anti-Russian psychosis that has gripped Ukraine since the Maiden coup that triggered a civil war in a country in which half or more of the population are essentially Russian became intolerable."

User Summertime Soviet has replied to the comment saying "It's a shame we can't pin comments on posts, because this one would get a pin from me.

so instead, have this Farmer_Heck seal of approval"

“violent anti-Russian psychosis”? Psychosis? Really?

The majority of the time, I try to understand the perspective of my opponents. Unfortunately, there are times (like now) that I’m afraid attempting to understand will only expose me to hatred, ignorance, and false information. For example, I have no idea what the “Maidan coup” allegedly was, and I refuse to look it up. It might even be a real historical event documented by reputable sources, but I’m not wasting my time finding out. (That isn’t a dare. I don’t want anyone reading this to search it, either.)

I mean... That's certainly a world view.

Do these people live in one of the affected countries or are they looking at it from the outside? Are they serious or are they just trolling?

Yeah, believing that really requires some mental gymnastics, intellectual laziness and lack of common sense..
