Wait so you claim to be left and somehow oppose partnership with China? How am I to understand this?

I recall two instances. Brno death march and the deliberate bombing of Berlin civilians. Many died in the expulsions. However this probably doesn't begin to cover the topic.

Also I somehow forgot to mention that there were neonazis in government positions before zelenskys administration.

Where was there any extrapolation? I just didnt understand the need to downplay azov and the western-backed nazis. You also failed to actually react to my questions.

While I also dont think that denazification was the actual reason for the invasion, I dont understand your point. The us was backing the nazis and while they lost heavily in elections, because most ukrainians are not extremists, they were commiting crimes against the russian ethnicity ukrainians. Was it better to wait? Or to send even more weapons to the separatists? I'm not saying that the invasion was justified, I just dont get your take.

Nelson Mandela was a terrorist in the US till 2008. Do you consider him as a resistance fighter now?

Maybe some people agree with your stance on the territory.(I use the UN declaration of where the occupation is illegal). Nevertheless germans cannot argue that its anti israel, since they have to recognize that the occupation is illegal in the 'occupied territories' which are not usually defined as all of israel furthermore you cannot be an occupier of your own territory so since germans recognize israel your argument would not apply to them. But i agree that if the whole territory was considered as under occupation(which it almost never is) you would be right.

Very good video explaining this german fanaticism. Also talks about their recent crackdown on migrants. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vy2ju_qPtuM

Advocating against occupation doesn't mean that you are against the state. When you criticize US for its war crimes, perhaps you only wish to stop them from committing the war crimes. This is more like the foundation of responsible patriotism. Not being servile anytime the newly elected war criminal wishes to commit more crimes. It just depends what kind of state do you want yours to be. In the case of apartheid, fighting for its abolishment is also fighting for democracy. Although I understand that this nonservility to criminal governments has always been difficult for germans.

Yes clearly western popular media is so afraid of being islamophobic. It's not that it's concerned about being labeled antisemitic at all. The good folks at ADL, AIPAC and the us government are truly careful about their treatment of the palestinian genocide and do their fullest not to cover up or even at times boast about israeli war crimes. I think that in case of saudis its laughable to argue that the lack of critique stems from being afraid of appearing islamophobic. We are manufacturing the genocide in yemen and palestine. Concerning china are you kidding? All the articles criticizing china are either south china see or uyghurs. Everything else is of the format: some chinese success, major threat for us good folks(in case we didnt know to be chauvinist before)
