Genocide is a Russian talking point, that conflict is a Russian invention, and those rebels are evil Russian agents. There is no large element of Neo Nazi operating in the open in Ukraine and especially deployed to defend their country from these evil Russian, not Ukrainian even, terrorists. Ukraine has absolutely no aspirations for ethnically cleaning their country of evil Russian culture, language and heritage. That's just another Russian talking point. The coup of their democratically elected President in 2014 is also another Russian talking point, the was clearly an organic, grassroots, nongmoverified, Revolution of Love, against everyone that didn't want to go along. The Neo Nazi operating openly and specifically deployed to Eastern Ukrainian aren't involved in any Ethnic Cleansing. That's the biggest Russian talking point, completely made up.

At first I thought your opposition got your posting key! Normally, I'd laugh. So, the argument is to say that it is ridiculous to disagree. That is the argument used to describe Putin's claims of genocide as ridiculous. Many people heard of this conflict with little interest over the past 8 years. It would have made for much better ratings if the media had stories and graphics of Ukrainian neo-nazis!
From what I can gather, Ukraine scrambled whoever who would fight after Russia annexed Crimea One regimen gained infamy for being led by neo-nazis, but the leaders were taken off and ran the political party instead that got 2% of the reported vote. No other stories seem to present themselves about current ethnic cleansing in eastern Ukraine. You can post them on the blockchain here; they may be downvoted but won't disappear.
Remember when there was a growing movement to say there was no mass extermination in Germany, aka the Holocaust? Many thought it a ridiculous stance, but the PM of Israel made a display of the blueprints of one of the sites, and I haven't heard much about it since. We need someone to take the doubts seriously to get to the truth!
