For the majority of the world's people, Russia is their only shield from the imperialism of the US and the EU (mainly France). A world with a strong Russia is better than one with a weak Russia. Putin is a man; he will lose power / resign / die at some point. The 6,000 nukes keeping us safe are a lot more important.

And yes, Ukraine seems to be run by people who have no issue kidnapping their own citizens and sending them to die. They also worship WW2 Nazi collaborators. I'm sure Russia has its own racists, but they aren't in power. One side is less bad than the other.

One side is less bad than the other.

It's insane how many US nationalists-in-denial apply this to elections and absolutely fucking nothing else. Not you, just making the observation
