Yes, you're right. There is no bad thing in killing and raping women, children and elder people, and there is no bad thing in bombing kindergartens, hospitals, and even theaters with the word "ДІТЕИ" written at the front.

Russians are not the ones waving SS symbols around, that's the Ukrainian Nazis, it's also the Ukrainians who are the ones attacking ethnic minorities and supporting dictators in the Middle-East

Ah yes, right wing nationalism is a problem exclusively in Ukraine. Russia invading a neighbour has nothing to do with Russification.

Russia is democratic nation?

Of course! They vote regularly! Sometimes even double the population of a city is voting!

Technically he is right with the latter, and there are minorities which get official status and lots of love from Ukraine's government, like Crimean Tatars (less native to Crimea than Greeks and Armenians, despite the name), and there are those who get less of that (Greeks, Armenians, also Poles and Hungarians). I mean, Russian and Ukrainians policies on minorities are kinda similar.
