A post on Ask Lemmygrad by user Cyber Ghost titled “What are the reasons why Russia attacked Ukraine?”

Below is the comment by user @cfgaussian reading: “The Nazi Kiev regime attacked the ethnically Russian Donbass for eight years intending to commit genocide in their quest for an ethnically pure Ukraine and Russia finally came to their aid after it became clear that the Minsk agreements were never going to be honored. Also, NATO was turning Ukraine into a hyper militarized threat to the integrity and security of Russia itself. Refusal of the US and Europe to negotiate on a new inclusive security framework, refusal to stop NATO expansion eastward, and the relentless and violent anti-Russian psychosis that has gripped Ukraine since the Maiden coup that triggered a civil war in a country in which half or more of the population are essentially Russian became intolerable.”

User Summertime Soviet has replied to the comment saying "It’s a shame we can’t pin comments on posts, because this one would get a pin from me.

so instead, have this Farmer_Heck seal of approval"

    It would be interesting to conduct a poll to find out where they’re all from. I suspect there aren’t for example a lot of German or French Tankies because that would require an impressive amount of self-delusion on their part.

      Never underestimate the amount that people can delude themselves, after all there were covid deniers who saw people around them dying from covid and still denied it to the end.
