Seems that Russia has turned into the good guys
Really? That's actually your considered opinion, based on the evidence?
During the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Russian authorities and armed forces were accused of committing war crimes by carrying out both deliberate attacks against civilian targets and indiscriminate attacks in densely populated areas. The Russian military allegedly exposed the civilian population to unnecessary and disproportionate harm by using cluster munitions – a type of weapon that is prohibited by 110 states because of its immediate and long-term danger to civilians – and by firing other explosive weapons with wide-area effects such as air-dropped bombs, missiles, heavy artillery shells and multiple launch rockets. The result of the Russian forces' attacks was damage or destruction of civilian buildings including houses, hospitals, schools, kindergartens, nuclear power plants, historic buildings, and churches. According to international law experts, evidence points to Russia deliberately targeting Ukrainian hospitals across the country.
As of 28 April, the attacks had resulted in the death of at least 2,829 civilians and the wounding of at least 3,180.
After Russian withdrawal from areas north of Kyiv, according to The Guardian, there was a "mounting body of evidence" of rape, torture and summary killings by Russian forces of Ukrainian civilians. There were allegations of forced deportations of thousands of civilians from Russian-occupied Mariupol to Russia, including children, systematic and massive sexual violence and deliberate killing of Ukrainian civilians by members of the Russian forces. At the end of March, Ukrainian forces recaptured the town of Bucha, located north of Kyiv. Afterwards, evidence emerged of a massacre perpetrated by Russian troops, including torture and the deliberate killings of civilians. According to Kyiv police, more than 900 bodies of civilians were found in the Kyiv region after Russian forces withdrew, most of them summarily executed, and the UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine documented the unlawful killing of 50 civilians – mostly men, but also women and children – in Bucha. In the first month of the invasion the Monitoring Mission also documented the arbitrary detention in Russian-occupied territories of journalists, activists, public officials and civil servants.

other side are behaving like the Nazis in WW2?
I have absolutely no idea what your crazy comeback to this will be. No Ukrainians have died or been mistreated, it's all been faked? It wasn't the Russians, Bill Gates did it?
What, really!?
The US has been killing civilians all over the world for a hundred years or more... many of them right in the USA itself. Consider all the people the drug war has killed, and broken families, with kids being sent away from their homes. And all that without anybody hurting or harming anybody else.
So, now we have Russia performing a police action, just like many the United States has done worldwide, and Russia is suddenly the bad guy for doing it, right?
Police actions being done by an outside nation are never squeaky clean. All you have to do is research the police actions the US did around the world, often without the need of protecting us from a hostile nation, often all for money for big corporations. But Russia is fighting for its life... to maintain its autonomy as a free nation of the world.
And here you have little Russia trying to protect herself from US aggression, and she happens to do a few bad things like the many the US has done, and all of a sudden Russia is the bad guy. Don't you realize that the civilians who were harmed or killed by Russia, were Ukrainian taxpayers? They were supporting their Ukrainian Nazi government just like you are supporting your murderous US government.
You got it backwards, hypocrite.
