That's a bunch of high-minded nonsense that will just get good people killed.
We didn't defeat Hitler by carefully sparing the lives of Germans. We defeated Hitler by killing literally millions of Germans in the most effective ways possible.

I disagree, there are good people on both sides.
Killing good people only leads to their children seeking revenge.
I don’t want my taxes to fund hatred between two nations.
You might say, “By that logic, the nazis would never have been defeated”. That’s true, but according to my moral values, I cannot accept my taxes funding the deaths of innocents and not oppose it.
There's a handful of good people in Russia. Case in point:

But obviously, comparing a nation of good people getting invaded by a nation of psychopaths invading them is absurd.
You might as well complain that police are "fueling hate" by arresting thieves. Which of course is a claim in western politics. By nutty psychopaths who are trying to equivocate good and evil.
You know nothing about WW2.
Firebombing Dresden, Hamburg et all added a year to the war, and cost an extra million allied casualties (mostly Soviet).
These and other open attacks on civillians also likely saved Hitler from Operation Valkyrie; via their effect on mid-ranking Wehrmacht officer's views on negotiating with the West.
Ukraine has a foreign legion you could join, if you really believed. You could kill some Russian civillians in Kursk, and find out for yourself what that does to enemy morale.
