    We’re talking about Ukraine’s obvious Nazi problem and you said this:

    There is a goal here and it seems…like supporting Russia, a global superpower and aggressor, in a war against—what is being painted here as just a bunch of nazis. The unspoken message here is, “you don’t want to support a bunch of nazis. Go russia.”

    This is classic whataboutism, a well known Soviet Communist Disinformatsiya technique. No one is saying Russia isn’t bad, but bringing that up doesn’t excuse what this conversation is about; it just distracts and provides cover for Ukrainian Nazis.
