nobody believe that the nazi in ukraine are the factor number 1 of this war, its just an additional argument. like all war, there is many factor, cause they need many people to support it.
e:/ i add that , befor this war : nazi = prison, people shocked by this ,
but now, its ok, ukraine can have theire nazi, No problem, and Israel give weapon and help.. no problem:!!!
and maybe i will shock some weak people, but thoose nazi are far from the national socialism... they just take some symbole , but not the spirit.shame on us. sadly
you are right. they aren't reason #1. they also aren't reason #100, or even reason #1,000... they are an excuse. if pootin was concerned about nazis at all, wagner group wouldn't exist, and non negligible parts of the russian army would have to be de-nazified first too. there are significantly more nazis in russia than there are in ukraine.
that whole "argument" is like the US invading canada for having too many mass shooters, or germany invading the netherlands (again) to rid them of beer drinkers... it's absurd really.
you are wrong about something else though. just read through this thread. multiple people repeatedly bring up "de-nazification" as an argument to justify this war. they were completely duped by russian propaganda on this issue, even though it's such obvious bullshit. unfortunately, there are a lot of unreasonable / gullible people in this sub.
