To be clear, my point isn't "WW2 wasn't serious", as some seem to have concluded from this tweet, but that the implication of the meme "these countries are SO NEUTRAL that for them to pick a side it has to be because a situation is just SO UNJUST" is wrong

Equating communism and nazism poses a real danger. I can't even count the number of times I've heard during this election season that "so what if the Sweden Democrats was founded as a neo-nazi party, the Left Party used to be communists!". As if they are in ANY WAY comparable.

I really need people to understand that a no-fly zone would require NATO to shoot down Russian aircraft, which is an act of war. A war involving 4 nuclear powers with over 12,000 warheads combined. A single nuke fired means automatic retaliation and the end of the human race.
