    Anyone crying about nato and specifically citing the ukrainian azov battalion. Is almost certainly a Russian Z Nazi or supporter of them. It’s an easy way to identify them since it’s an oddly specific combonation of groups to hate.

    And for the record. Azov never would have existed if russia didn’t start a war against Ukraine in 2014… eat me

      OK. But nobody invoking them now is all that concerned with that.

      Personally I got a kick out of Gravel Institute posting a video about Nazis in the Ukraine military talking about Azov shortly before Russia attacked in 2022, and then pulling it down shortly afterward because more or less their exact point was now considered to be Russian far right propaganda. Just such a beautiful example of how things like that can change.

        Reads like a wall writing in a lunatic asylum.

        I’ve always said extreme ideologization is equivalent to a psychotic disorder. It’d be quite fascinating to study if not for the extreme danger it entails for all of us. Vatniks included.

        No country on earth resembles nazi Germany more than the russian federation. They are objectively a fascist. Racist. Imperialist warmongering mob state.

        The fact that you take the fascists at their word when they simply claim they’re against nazis… while displaying direct comparison Everything they say and do. Just proves you sympathize with them and aren’t worth talking to about this topic

        Pro tip. Russia considers “nazis” to be anything that opposes Russia. End of story
