• This is liberalism. Human rights is only for those the liberals consider human. Palestinians and Russians in Ukraine or even Russia are not included.

        Just checked how Wikipedia is doing with its summary of the phrase:

        From the 1930s it was used by different Ukrainian groups, as well as Ukrainian diaspora groups and refugee communities in the West during the Cold War.

        That’s… certainly a sentence.

          Oh my god:

          In the Soviet Union, the slogan “Slava Ukraini!” was forbidden and discredited via a decades-long propaganda campaign alongside the diaspora Ukrainian nationalists who used it.[9][6] They were dubbed “Ukrainian bourgeois nationalists”, “Banderites”, and “Nazi henchmen” by Soviet authorities.[9]

          In the late 1980s and early 1990s, the slogan began to be heard at rallies and demonstrations.[6] After Ukraine declared independence in 1991, the phrase “Glory to Ukraine” became a common patriotic slogan.[citation needed] In 1995, President of the United States Bill Clinton used the phrase in a speech in Kyiv[10] (together with “God bless America”).[11]

    This is postmodernism. His army is full of Nazi imagery and symbols, not to mention the thousands of Nazis in the ranks plus the tens of thousands of their comrades who tolerate them plus the millions who celebrate them. There isn’t a week where we don’t see half a dozen new images and videos of Nazis in the Ukrainian army proudly displaying their affiliation.

    The lib response is literally the response the bots from Westworld give: “That doesn’t look like anything to me.” They have convinced themselves that pointing to reality can be Russian propaganda. They choose to ignore reality in favour of a narrative convenient to them. I don’t understand it.
