My favorite pastime is swapping the word Ukraine with Palestine:

  • Palestinians are not capable of defeating Israel. They need to make concessions with Israel and come to a peace agreement and two state solution. Palestinians should not fight back to recapture all their land. Israel will keep their word they are good for it.

  • Compromise? Ukraine needs to push every last Russian out of Crimea and recapture all their land! Who cares if they will win, fight till the last Ukrainian!

Yes because Russia only exists because of the UK giving the land from whatever-brown-people

Russia only exists in its present form because the Russians subjugated 190 other nationalities in a centuries-long imperialist expansion.

That last one a depressingly common perspective among people in power in Ukraine, including Zelensky.
