Either filter should have you opposing US support- either because our side are sociopathic war criminals or because we don't want to support a Nazi uprising.

WW2 lens is used in just about every conflict. And it's always False.

What about viewing it by current events specifically related to that region? Going back 30 years. Then there is the definition of ‘left’. .

i view it through the filter of Russian Ukrainianes were disenfranchised by a nazi insurrection orchestrated by the US, and then called terrorists. why dont you support the Crimean Referendum, in response to a coup by the people who had lost the previous election.

the government and media have been lying since 2014, demonizing Russia, for their 100 percent justifiable responses in light of the coup, and then military campaign against the victims of the coup, the Russian-Ukrainians. its disgusting.

Nobody enterer WW2 for moral reasons.

The left is very diverse. Pretty much why we can never come to a 'one size fits all' consensus on any topic.

I look at it through the lens of why the fuck are we arming nazis

Either alone tells FAR LESS than half the story. Because they are not the only two "filters" through which to view this war. Why are you trying to tell people who the left or they themselves should frame a global conflict? How does that help the left? How does it help Ukraine?

The left is against war, and is against profiteering from bloodshed. The left is against anglosphere hegemony, racism and colonialism. The left is for peace, environment, brotherhood and Justice for all. Stop cheering Ukraine to die futilely and dollars. Cheer for peace instead.
