I'm so excited for you! You have so much history to learn about!
Fascism is, despite what liberals will tell you, not an abstract concept but rather a concrete historical phenomenon that gained it's name during the rise of the anti-communist movement known as the Third Reich in Germany. Adolf Hitler, the leader of the Third Reich, wrote about his vision, motivation, ambitions, and inspiration in Mein Kampf. In it, he describes how much he admired the systems that the USA inherited from the Netherlands, France, England, and Spain and perfected - systems of slavery, apartheid, eugenics, prison labor, propaganda, cultural genocide, industrial mass murder, land appropriation, scientific racism, child separation, and permanent underclass maintenance. In Mein Kampf, Hitler details his aspirations to take the American system and use it to dominate the Slavs in the same way that the USA dominated indigenous and black peoples. In this way, we see how fascism was not born in Germany but rather named in Germany and born in the European colonies and most highly developed in the USA.
When Germany turned the North Atlantic colonial project towards white people in Europe, it became something that challenged the USA's burgeoning economic hegemony. It was allowed to proceed so long as it looked like it would destroy the USSR, which was the primary ideological threat to the North Atlantic project for global domination. But when the USSR demonstrated it was not merely capable of defending itself but of marching all the way across Europe and fully defeating history's most advanced military at the time, the USA needed to intervene and ensure the USSR didn't control the end state after having defeated 80% of all German troops.
So the USA intervened and implemented Operation Paperclip where it protected Nazi members and officials and distributed them around the world, often in positions of power. It then built NATO and staffed it with Nazi officers and then executed Operation Gladio in which the USA coordinated, established, trained, armed, funded, and facilitated "stay-behind" militias of Nazis all over Europe. In this way, we see that the USA didn't defeat fascism, it birthed it, internationalized it, protected it, incubated it, and used it to advance it's aims.
In a very historically accurate way, it is almost impossible to call Putin a fascist. The fascists have always been the white North Atlantians and they continue to be. In a very historical way, the Nazis in Ukraine are the result of Operation Gladio and the funding, training, supporting, and facilitation of those Nazis by the USA is in no way aberrant but in fact completely congruent with 80 years of USA activity in Europe.
When you see it, you won't be able to unsee it. America has killed more innocents than USSR+Russia has by at least one order of magnitude. Everything to oppose evil America is motivated entirely by the desire to minimize the total number of innocents killed. America will not stop when asked nicely. They have demonstrated this for the last 100 years of mass murder of innocents all over the world, so inevitably, any resistance of the USA will result in the death of innocents. The US pioneered the modern formulation of proxy war and it is incredibly deadly to innocents. This war in Ukraine is not different. It is a USA proxy war against Russia.
If you don't think America has killed that many innocents, just tally up the death tolls of indigenous Americans, blacks, and Asians domestically, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Korea, Hiroshima, Nagasaki, The Philippines, Iraq, Afghanistan, Yugoslavia, Yemen, Libya, Syria, Ghana, Chad, Palestine, Cuba, Nicaragua, Bolivia, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Venezuela, Guatemala, El Salvador, Iran, Haiti, Honduras, Paraguay, Congo, Russia, Al-Qaeda, The School of the Americas, the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation, just to start your education.
Stopping America will save more innocents than trying to save innocents by appeasing America.
Happy reading! I hope you enjoy the learning process as much as I did!
Try to do some reasoning here. The USA is the most violent country on the planet, responsible for more deaths than any other country in the modern era. The only country to use nukes on the battlefield and they used them kill civilians while negotiating a surrender. The country that enslaves the largest number of their own people for profit. The country that maintains fascism throughout the world.
Russia isn't allowed to do this because the USA is worse. Russia has no other choice but to push back the violent fascist nuclear military expansion of the USA because of it doesn't the USA will have Russia in a kettle, surrounded by nuclear first strike capabilities. The last time the USA had even a modicum of influence over Russia it killed millions of Russians through economics alone. If the USA finally got NATO nuclear capabilities into Ukraine the way it's been planning to do for 30 years against the protests of literally every sane person and also of Russian peace negotiations and national security concerns, it would be capable and has shown willing it would kill millions of Russians to balkanize it and turn it into a vast US military base, strip mine, and labor camp.
The reality is that proxy wars kill tons of people, and the responsibility lies with the proxy master. In this case, Ukraine is the USA's proxy in a war with Russia. The USA causes this war. Without the USA's actions, Russia would have never needed to take Crimea, would have never needed to send troops to protect the Donbass, and would have never needed to launch this SMO. All of these innocent deaths are deaths in a proxy war launched by the USA.
What's insane is believing that the USA is "bad" but that everyone else is worse. What's insane is believing that the USA killing millions of people and administration genocides continuously for a century is going to be resolved without war. The body count in Ukraine is on the hands of the USA and is still so much smaller than the rest of the USA's body count. Ending US hegemony is the only way to save the lives of Innocents.

Yep.
You know what they say - if you can't beat 'em, label them and use social exclusionary techniques to avoid needing to address their criticisms.
