The armchair propaganda and meme critic in me thinks this also conflates anti-imperial violence with imperial/settler-colonial violence and perhaps could better communicate the reality in some other way. Violence is necessary in struggles against violent oppression and resistance is not equivalent to ethnic cleansing, genocide, economic siege, or liberal coups.

Being targeted by nazis tends to unify populations who do indeed have varied opinions on everything else. This isn't asking people what kind of beverage they prefer, it's about sovereignty and protection from fascist paramilitaries, and, post-coup, fascist state forces.
