If you support a war then you support a war and it sounds like you do support the Ukraine war. Do you want your country to give money, weapons, and people (aka support) to Ukraine or do you not?

You appear to have a very over-simplified view here. Supporting a country that is being invaded is not the same as supporting the war itself. Supporting a war specifically implies someone supports the aggressing country and their goals. Supporting Ukraine does not mean someone also supports Russia invading Ukraine.

Acting like anyone who thinks countries should be allowed to defend themselves from invaders is pro-war is a truly terrible take.

Your flawed argument is that the soldiers fighting Nazis were pro-war. No, they were anti illegal genocide, invasion and annexation.

On the separate narrow note you're trying to equivocate with false narratives only you are putting forth, I personally want Ukraine to receive as much support as possible, because it's radically weakening a violent hostile country that has already proven it is hell bent on stealing territory.

Proving to the world that Russia is not a threat militarily and removing any further capacity for violent Russian hostility for decades has been a great investment.
