    Assuming every Ukrainian is a Nazi, and every Russian isn’t (which is obviously extreme on both ends, but let’s simplify and take a maximalist position favoring you.)

    There’s a lot of estimates out there, but taking rough middle estimates, 500k Ukrainian forces have been killed, and 1,250k Russian forces. So you think it is good, logical even, to melt 2.5 non Nazis in favor of killing one? Would you sacrifice your life and a friend or family member to kill one Ukrainian Nazi?

      I haven’t made any of those assumptions or said any of those things, so I’m not sure what imaginary person you’re arguing against

        You made all kinds of open ended comments about “Nazi’s getting murked” as your basic characterization of what Russia is doing in Ukraine, not measuring it against any limiting principle of civilian casualties or basically anything else. You’re leaving everyone else to do your work for you of quantifying what you mean. If you are denying that the civilian vs nazi death rate is acceptable, that would negate everything you said, but you’re conveniently leaving untouched literally any question that would reality check or sanity check your vague generalities.

        The only explanation for not distancing yourself from your Nazi history and instead leaning into it is because you’re a Nazi.

        Seems pretty cut and dry to me, but I’m not a Nazi so that makes me pretty biased based

        They’re killing Nazis and they’re justified in doing it. Seems like you think it’s worth the cost to you, but I don’t know what you believe. So what is your position here?

          Oh no, someone making a sane point. Better downvote it and run away!
