The way you can immediately tell someone is totally hooked on Russian fascist propaganda is their unshakable belief that Victoria Nuland is one of the most powerful people in the world. They think she single handedly overthrew Yanukovych and installed Poroshenko. Clown shit.

After three wonderful days spent with other classical liberal economists, philosophers, law school deans, etc - i.e. people who accomplish things and know what they’re talking about - I return to the mundane idiocy of my former party.

Despite the disingenuous framing and ignorant bleating of HoppeFrog Caucus luminaries, there was no coup in Ukraine, and Zelenskyy wasn’t “installed” by virtue of said imaginary coup.

The Euromaidan protests were wide-scale demonstrations against then President Viktor Yanukovych, who, under pressure from the Kremlin, abrogated Parliament’s decision to sign a political association and free trade agreement with the EU. The protestors demanded that Yanukovych resign on account of corruption, police brutality, human rights violations, and ignoring the will of the people as expressed through Parliament. The majority of Ukrainians wanted the agreement with the EU.

Yanukovych did what tyrants and oligarchs do, and set the riot police on the protesters. After 108 protestors were killed, but they kept marching on the capital anyway, Parliament and Yanukovych came to an agreement to create an interim unity government, after which they exercised their CONSTITUTIONAL prerogative to remove him from office - unanimously. Being such a nice guy, Yanukovych complained to Moscow, who subtly but not really subtly stirred up Russian separatists in Donetsk and Luhansk, as well as seizing Crimea.

Now, the Vatniks currently leading the LP to the grave will claim that Zelenskyy came to power due to a CIA coup, because they have a Bourne Identity understanding of reality, but the truth is Yanukovych fled the country like the coward he was after he basically caused Ukraine to at conflict with Russia, was CONSTITUTIONALLY replaced by Arseniy Yatsenyuk on an interim basis, who was subsequently replaced by Petro Poroshenko after a special election, who was beaten by Zelenskyy...5 years later.

Zelenskyy didn’t even have anything to with Euromaidan. It was three presidents before him. Of course, Yatsenyuk signed the agreement that Parliament had negotiated with the EU instead of the one Putin was trying to force them to sign with Russia, so Vatiks being Vatniks and all, it must have been a CIA backed coup.
