    No I’m not. You’re putting so, so many inaccurate words in my mouth. That’s why I simply repeat myself so you can continue to play crazy person.

    We don’t judge the Russian people for Putin’s actions.

    We don’t judge Germans for Hitler’s actions.

    People are people. Countries are countries.

    To reiterate: We don’t judge a people by their nation state. That’s how atrocities get normalized.

      We do judge those people who voted for Hitler. The Germans do so as well. We use that political party as a slur for a reason. I would not be surprised if other countries use “Nazi” as a slur as well.

      Russia’s election is a joke. That’s what makes this different from blaming the Germans who voted for Hitler for giving the world Hitler.
