    They’re not wrong. Azov have been far-right extremists since the beginning. But imagine if a foreign country invaded the US and gained a sizable stronghole. We’d be arming right-wing militias to repel the invaders too.

    They’re a help now, but Azov will be a problem in the future.

      Yeah, that’s a problem. It’s almost as if liberalism enables fascism.

      They’re a help now

      No they’re fucking not. They’re fucking fascists. On what planet are fascists “a help”?

      No, you never arm nazis. Azov is worse than just a “right wing militia”, they are actual blood and soil neo nazis. How many times that this have to backfire backfire before people realise arming Nazis is a terrible idea?

      Also this ignores the fact that far right elements were essential in the 2014 coup taking place in Ukraine. The support of Nazi groups was needed to seperate Russia and Ukraine diplomatically. That’s the whole reason “the West” has been arming and supporting them for close to a decade now.

      Who’s “we”? Biden? You are saying Biden will arm Jan 6th rioters to repel the Chinese or Russians or whatever?

      Also, brave Mujahideen etc etc

      They’re a help now, but Azov will be a problem in the future.

      I can’t wait for Azov to do another 9/11 antelope-popcorn

        Plus there’s the small problem of Azov having been instrumental in raiding the Donbas region of Ukraine for seven years before the Russian Federation got involved. So it would be more like if Rishi Sunak armed the Oathkeepers to raze Arizona until Mexico felt the need to intervene.

            I’m saying if the Chinese invade, gain a significant stronghold, and use that area to continuously bombard the surrounding area in an attempt to overtake the entire country, the US will arm anyone they can. It’s not a difficult concept, why is this so hard?

            I mean, yeah, if China decided to invade the US, the US probably would proliferate the explosives needed by those far right militias right down to 'em, they already have more small arms and ammo than the US mil of course, but they would need the Apaches and Hellfire missiles to be dispensed. OH, and half of them are already trained in their use, being ex military themselves. So “yes” I guess is what I’m trying to say. Or perhaps more accurately “probably, yes.”
