Western press shilling for Nazis

Examples of western press accidentally/purposefully promoting Ukrainian neo-Nazis/ulta nationalists:

PBS Newshour interviews the Mayor of Konotop, Artem Semenikhin, who has a portrait of Nazi leader and Holocaust perpetrator Stepan Bandera, on the wall behind him.

BBC show gutsy Ukrainian grandmother being trained by soldiers from neo-Nazi Azov Battalion. 

BBC interview Ukraine’s Deputy Chief Prosecutor, David Sakvarelidze, who says, "It’s very emotional for me because I see European people with blue eyes and blonde hair being killed”.

For International Women's Day, NATO's Twitter account posted a photo of women fighters in Ukraine. One of these women was wearing a Nazi symbol. The tweet has been deleted.

Russians rightly fear NATO

Can everyone please stop pretending that they’d be cool with an obscenely aggressive, hostile foreign power rocking up on the borders of their country and pointing ballistic missiles at them?

Russians rightly fear US/NATO encirclement.

Imagine Russia/China were waging overt/covert wars of aggression around the world. Imagine they were openly talking about wanting regime change in the US. Imagine they were meddling in Mexico to install a puppet regime. Imagine they were sending lethal arms there and backing literal Nazi groups. 

What would the US do?

Putin’s invasion is wrong and horrible. He could’ve carried on trying for peaceful solutions. I guess he snapped. But it’s absurd to place all the blame on him and ignore all the history that led to this!! 

If we want peace, we need to understand all the reasons why the war happened.

Why is Russia being so condemned and punished by the international community, given that the US/west are guiltier of FAR greater criminality, yet have faced no consequences? Perhaps because the international community, thanks to that imperial criminality, has been significantly captured by the west? And this west-dominated world order is what Putin is now pushing back against...

How is it possible, after so many wars and such planetary destruction, that so many people still believe western powers/NATO to be benign and non-threatening?! It is they who are the most misinformed, not Russians!
