      I don’t think so. I think there are quite a lot of people with a very shallow knowledge of European history, who saw few Nazi symbols carries by Ukrainian Nazi and then are ready to assume this position. Most of these people want to be anti-imperialists when it comes to US or UK (often being from US themselves), so this makes it handy: US supports Ukraine, I have seen Ukrainian Nazis, Russia called this denazification, Russia is enemy of US and that’s how they get this position.

      Of course, they hardly have idea of the Ukrainian perspective as a colony, as subject to an imperial power before etc.
