    I thought Ukraine were the Good Guys ™? Good Guys don’t repress political groups because they disagree with them, they should debate them in the marketplace of ideas.

          The US jailed and outlawed a group sympathetic to their enemy during WWII. So, I’m not shocked that Ukraine did the same thing.

          Don’t say that he’s hypocritical, Say rather that he’s apolitical. “Once the rockets are up, Who cares where they come down? That’s not my department,” Says Wernher von Braun.
