Have you been to Kiev? Right. Obviously not.

The parties that took power could never have taken power any other way. They were Far right and represented less than 25% of the population. Even discounting the manipulation, support, and the large number of right Sector who did really dirty things during that period, the way the new government formed was not constitutional.

Have you researched the first Maidan? The one the press never brings up? The history behind this? I doubt it matters if you are invested.

Go ahead and continue to drink the coolaid and blow off any source outside the War Narrative as "Putin's people". Surely it makes the world seem much simpler that way I suppose.
