Similar thing happened across the border, in Ukraine, with a pacifist being accused of "justifying the war", as reported by Democracy Now!

Russian pacifists want Russia to stop invading Ukraine.

Lemmygrad / Hexbear pacifists want Ukraine to appease Russia and give up territory.

They are not the same.

Adding "jailing pacifists for speaking out" to the things dronies openly support, along with forcing others to fight when they're not willing to, poisoning civilians with generations of birth defects, and giving cluster bombs to Nazis.
