1) There are no McCarthyites here. That's just you attempting to deflect legitimate criticism. Sadly for you, it doesn't actually work. The other Russia supporters here will buy into it, but then you guys buy into Russian propaganda, so that's not surprising.The McCarthyites here believe that criticising Ukraine means supporting Russia when in reality there isn't a nickel's worth of difference between Russia and Ukraine, both countries were part of the Soviet Union and both countries are as corrupt as the other.
2) The problem here hasn't been at all about criticizing Ukraine. That's complete nonsense. My part started here with Stevicus claiming Russia expands for defense, not offense, and wants to establish a buffer zone because the mean old west keeps trying to invade. Further, none of the many exchanges here focus on Ukraine or whether they're good or bad.
3) The fact that you pretend there's no difference between Russia and Ukraine is exactly why we keep pointing out that you're supporting Russia. Both being part of the USSR means absolutely nothing. Russia is the former USSR. The other countries are the ones that broke away. Whether or not there is corruption in Ukraine is irrelevant. They are not the ones invading other countries.
Russia is invading a sovereign country. That's the problem here. Not corruption in government.
